Simplicity 7250 Deluxe Vacuum Questions & Answers
Belt replacement on simplicity synergy x9 series
Your simplicity has a lifetime belt. It has a sensor to shut the direct air motor off if something restricts the brushroll from from turning. You may save money in the long run by taking it to a simplicity or Riccar vacuum dealer.
Simplicity F3500-- how do I
To change the belt on the Simplicity F3500, unplug the vacuum and turn it upside down. There are two tabs (one on each side) behind the beater bar that hold the cover on the vacuum. Press these tabs inward and lift the bottom plate away from the unit.
Then remove the brushroll and the worn or broken belt from the pulley on the side of the brush roll and the drive shaft. Loop the new belt over the driveshaft and the brushroll. Replace the brushroll in the housing and turn it by hand. Make sure that the belt is seated on the driveshaft and pulley with no twists. Also check that all of the rotating parts will move.
Then put the bottom cover back on by aligning the back hinges and then pressing the plate down until both sides click.
For pictures of the cover removal process, look at page 15 in the manual. The direct link is

Several possibilities for this situation. It's possible that there's a break in the power cord somewhere, not necessarily a noticeable break, but a break none-the-less. It's possible that there's a reset on the motor to protect it from overheating. The switch may be broken inside. I'd say there's a good possibility that you're going to need to bring it to a good sweeper repair shop in your neighborhood.
How do i remove the
Are you just trying to put the hose into the cuff? If so, you just need to know that the cuff is threaded so the wire of the hose fits in the threads. If you're asking about the assembly at the top of the hose--I don't know. Probably you have to take the green shell apart and work from the inside. Good luck.
Simplicity freedom vacuum has a burnt rubber smell
If the belt is continually wearing out I would think that the brush cylinder is not free to rotate. Take the belt off and ensure that the brush cylinder moves freely. If is does not, then you need to investigate why - probably something wound round it that has jammed it.

Short version: slide the two retaining clips to the center and remove the bottom plate. There's a C-shaped retaining clip at the right end of the roller tray. Remove the clip and lift the roller out. Thread the old belt from around the motor drive shaft, thread the new one in, put it around the roller and replace the roller - belt will stretch enough to let you do this. Put the C-clip back in, replace the bottom plate and go.
Removing an obstruction in the vacuum's pipe system
Here are some methods you can try to remove that pesky sock:
Using a Coat Hanger:
Turn off your vacuum and unplug it for safety.
Straighten out a wire coat hanger, ensuring it has no sharp edges or points.
Carefully insert one end of the coat hanger into the vacuum hose.
Gently maneuver the coat hanger around, trying to hook onto the sock.
Once you have a good grip on the sock, slowly pull it out of the hose.
Remember to exercise caution to avoid damaging your vacuum cleaner or injuring yourself.
Vacuuming in Reverse:
Locate your vacuum cleaner's exhaust port.
Disconnect or detach any accessories from this port.
Attach your vacuum cleaner hose securely over this port.
Turn on your vacuum cleaner and let it run for several seconds.
The reverse airflow created may dislodge and push out the stubborn sock from within the hose.
Seek Professional Help:
If both methods fail, consider contacting a local appliance repair service or reaching out directly to the manufacturer of your specific model.
Trained professionals can offer expert advice or perform repairs if needed.
Remember to turn off the vacuum and unplug it before attempting any disassembly or cleaning.
