20 Most Recent Dyson DC07 Animal Bagless Upright Cyclonic Vacuum - Page 4 Questions & Answers

There are three things that "stop" (no noise anymore) a DC07 working. I will list them in order of the most common to least common faults. 1) The motor is burnt out. Caused by over filling and not cleaning the filter regularly. You must replace the post motor filter when getting the motor replaced 2) The power cord has failed. This can usually be seen by visually inspecting the cord for damage. 3) The on/off switch has failed. All of these faults should be repaired by a licensed sparky for safety reasons.

Here is how to do it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UtLEYpGqpWU This is a good way to stop your motor burning out. I use the lighter white cloth filter rather than the purple hepa filter. It puts less stress on the motor and gives a little more suction at the expence of a tiny bit more dust making it through.

Hi its Darran at Dyson.

From your description of the problem, it sounds as though the bleed valve is activating which only happens when there is a blockage.

We would recommend following the full blockage through as outlined in your user guide or in the Support section on our website at www.dyson.com.

Kind regards

Hi, just pull the cap out.

I remove the complete cyclone/bin and hose it down with high hose pressure in all holes until you see no more dirt. Do not do this to the vacuum cleaner! Then dry it for a couple of days making sure it is completely dry before use. This gets rid of pet odour. Replace the post motor filter if this needs doing as it will be blocked.

Hi there, it's Jack at Dyson. The type of belt mechanism will depend on which model of DC07 you own. If you have a DC07 machine without the brush control feature, the user-replaceable belt is located within the cleaner head: http://www.dyson.co.uk/support/dc07/dc07-standard/maintaining-your-dyson-machine/change-the-belt1/belt-fitting-preparation However, if your DC07 includes the brush control feature (you should see the Carpet/Hard floor dial on the cleaner head), your machine will use a clutch mechanism with belts engineered to last for the lifetime of the machine in normal use. If you have a DC07 with brush control and would like some help with it, please contact us directly by calling 0800 298 0298 (UK), 1-866-693-9766 (US), 1-877-397-6622 (CA) or 1800 239 766 (AU).

the removable drum can be washed. however, you need to make sure it is completely dry before using it again. How DIY are you? the screws at the top can be removed and the lid lifts off. This allows for better cleaning and drying.

You do not get it repaired, you simply buy a replacement. If you are in the UK, you can get one from here: Dyson DC07 back hose

You line up the spring, place the two top prongs behind the lip on the wand and gently snap it home onto the two locating pins. You can also now get a workshop manual for the DC07, it is item number 0955687411 on Amazon.

Hi Charles, it's Jack at Dyson. DC27 is engineered to adjust automatically for different floor types - there is no way of manually adjusting the height of the wheels or brush bar. The vacuum may need higher push force on certain types of deep pile carpeting. We would recommend checking directly with the carpet manufacturer for their advice on caring for this particular carpeting - manfacturers may recommend vacuuming some carpets with the brush bar turned off, and it may be worth giving this a try. To turn off the brush bar, just use the brush control switch next to the red on/off switch:

on the front of the base there are 3 very small rollers made out of rubber, these are either just dry and won't turn or worn and or damaged,

that is your problem / honest its that simple
