thrown in a landfill

UPDATE 6/29/21 didn't have time to fix it again๐Ÿ˜  bought a smaller model and goes on forever but the belt on it hasn't burnt out yet its the last test. I really like this carpet cleaner and why is the belt a weak point? I understand that you need to keep the machine clean, clean, and clean again during use and after the job is done; what am I doing. Now Hoover doesn't know how to replace him. Here's my theory on why the belts break/burn: The machine runs and idles when the handle is locked. Tension on the belt maintains belt tension where the drive shaft makes contact, eventually leading to belt weakness. So turn off the machine when it is in the locked position. Also, pick up any items that could clog or block the rollers ie suck, suck, suck, suck, suck, then suck; especially if you have hairy pets or people. Check the rollers between water changes; all hair, hair ties, bracelets, ribbons or jam rollers belonging to rap artists must be removed; It takes about three seconds after the rollers lock to burn and break the belt. The smell of burnt rubber? I'm sorry you're late. I stuck. Therefore, keep the machine clean during use and after work. Remove all objects from the areas and vacuum <------, check rollers, check rollers. Like I said I really like this carpet cleaner and it does its job really well but when it's only used once and it takes all day to replace the belt with a machine that's faulty and thinks people just buy another car, and go away, hoover. If you're lucky and don't break the plastic pieces and don't have to glue them together, look for lost screws or look for ways to put on a BROKEN belt. Hoover made sure you couldn't find a video of it, so a few days to clean your living room is a good gauge of what you're dealing with. Beast from a local store. Before that I bought a variant with two belts and neither did the job, despite all the precautions I mentioned above. I bought the original part, let's see what happens. Will update this when I do rugs, or if all goes well, rugs.

Pros
  • belt
Cons
  • vulgarity
