Belt broke I need to find out how to get in the vacuum to replace the belt but cannot figure it out. I do not have the owners manual for this Eurka The Boss Superlit bagless (402a) please e-mail me any directions if you know how to do it,thanks. [email protected]

Make sure the hose is not jammed up with dust or it will trip the internal breaker.

go to manuals.com and put in the model Follow directions in the manuelUsually only requires a screwdriver

You've probably figured this out, but my luv200R had the same problem. The belt broke, I changed it and it still didn't spin the brushes. Turned out, the roller has bearings on either end and one of the bearings was bad and wasn't letting roller roll. So the pulley would spin against the belt and heat up and break it again. I took the bad roller to Sears where they had a new one sent to my house free of charge since it was less than a year old.

you may have something in your brush bearing that does not allow the brush to turn easily thus stretching the belt. Chris

if your vacuum motor overheats, it will stop working. it will start working again once it cools.
