I've had this in the shed for aaages, and found it the other day.
It didnt work too well, so lets have it apart and see if it can be perked up a bit
The rubber squeegee snaps out from underneath
Front wheels snap out
Undo the 5 screws holding the clear head on and it seperates into 3 sections
Crap shot, but the head wasnt too bad
This is the main turbine assembly
Brushroll twists off the axle holders
The non moveable side snaps off
The two bits that hold the brushroll on need to come off. A bearing puller is pretty essential tbh for this bit
The turbine assembly then comes apart this much
The axles are held in place with a spring clip on either side
The best way I found is to hold the plastic casing firmly, and tap the axle with a hammer until the spring clip gives
Using the puller again, slide the brass bearing bush off the axle
The spring and spring clip fall off now
The half of the turbine casing you tapped the axle out of first comes off now
More tappy tappy and the other spring clip releases its grip on the turbine casing
You should now be left with just the turbine casing
The brushroll on/off mechanism pops off the other side
the red part pops out of the silver part
The top of the turbine housing levers up and out, releasing the inner turbine and belt
On to the main housing parts now
The ends lever out and pop off, splitting the unit and releasing the hose
Some rubber bits come off
Little seal here
And it's as apart as it will get!
It was all washed and polished, then time to go back together.
Main seal back in. This is quite important to get it seated properly as its the main suction inlet to the whole thing
Rubbery bits back in
Main housing bits clipped together
Clip all the turbine bits back together with a drop of oil on all the moving parts
Slip the brass bushes and springs on the axles
and fit the airflow button
Brushrolls fitted
Take your freshly polished clear housing
and screw all 3 parts back together
Voila!
All done. Works MUCH better now, I attached it to my Hoover Galaxy which spun it up on the lowest setting right up to the highest.
Mods - feel free to put the part number for this head in the title, I have no idea what machine it came from, let alone what it fits (it fits the DC16, but that doesnt spin it up!)
