Amen, no problem, that's why I made the video, because I was getting ready to buy a new one myself if I could not figure out how to get it apart. I'm glad it was useful to you!
Thank you kindly sir! Everyone else just shows how to get the front brush off which is a no brainer. Your video was exactly what I needed and right to point
Thank you, Christine. Some people need something to complain about. I actually made a second video for the other side also. Thank you for the kind comment.
Thank you very much for putting this video up. I would have never figured why the brushes weren't rolling in mine, let alone how to access the belt without this video. Thank you again.
Thank you for checking out the video. As soon as I figured it out, I had to make a video in case someone else had the same issues. My channel I usually just do quick tool reviews, and the occasionally a how to. Thank again!
Very cool. I have the same model and could not believe they covered the belt with security screws. Talk about a manufacturer trying to force new purchases! Thank you for the video and the link for the belts!
No problem. Once I figured out how it came apart, I said to myself, "Someone might have the same issue. Let me make a quick video." Most definitely, they want to purchase a new one, then fix it, or they would have made it more accessible to take apart. God bless!
I think that Shark vacuums suck!!! Shark vacuum are made so that a simple thing as changing brush roll is so HARD to do that you are almost forced to buy a new vacuum!!!
Thanks for the video. I looked for a while for something like this for my duo clean lift away. Got in following your directions and my belt was all frayed. New one coming tomorrow, hope it works. Fingers crossed.
No problem, l, that's why I made it because there were no videos. I am going to do another video eventually for the other side because people were asking about belt sizes.
Yesss I’m needing to order a belt for mine and scared to order the wrong belt size. None of the belts on Amazon mention my zu881 shark model. Wondering if my model is included in the NV500 series????? 😩
I came here looking for something else as well. I wasn't sure how to replace the front wheel on my nv835, but it looks like under the belt covers is where I have to go to remove the wheel pin. Thanks
I’ve had this vacuum for a few years now and it’s still going strong. th-cam.com/users/postUgkx8ISPQRRAfpAaX4msGjyodObTBnlj4T5g I was cleaning it today and thinking about how much I love no bags to buy and that it comes apart for easy clean up. When I first purchased it we had two dogs and a cat and it kept up well. The suction was great then and still is now. I’m always amazed at the amount of hair it picks up, it works better than any other vacuum I’ve had for pet hair. The attachments are handy and work well. It’s easy to use with arthritic hands. I just had to come write a review because I’m still so pleased with this purchase.
While you had it apart, you should have cleaned the hose from the head to the tank. Mine was so clogged it wouldn't pick anything up. Thanks for showing how to get the front open.
I have the star shaped bits but there is a piece in the middle of each of the screws so i cannot fit my bit in. Is this a special set of Allen wrenches with a hole in the tip so they fit over that piece in the screw?
I bought a brand new shark vacuum and it was broken in the first 5 minutes I used it. It was working fine on hardwood floors. Next, I tried to vacuum a rug with the rotating brush on. As soon as the brush turned on there was a snapping sound, and the brush stopped. I tried bring it to 2 different repair shops and they both said that they do not, and will not work on a Shark vacuum. I'm screwed.
So, did you figure out what was broken?? Amazon I think does have some parts for them, or maybe you could find a used one for parts on ebay. I have a carpet cleaner that the motor locked up on it. I found a motor used on ebay for $30 to fix it. Hope this helps
No, the worst thing was figuring out how it came apart. The spring part is one piece that's Flys apart when you pull it apart. It's common sense after looking at it to figure out where it goes when you put it back together. Witch I show in the video where it goes. Thanks for the comment.
You pull it apart with your hands after you take the screws out. Say's that in the video. It says to roll the new belt on, spin the brush while pushing on the belt. Over 20k views, some of them people thanking me for making the video, your the first complaint, hope you have a better day...
Not everyone leaves a comment on a video. Good luck, keep looking. There is no other video. That's why I made this short video. It's my fault thinking everyone is somewhat mechanically inclined. When I make the video of the other side, I will show how to put the belt on the small gear and spin the roller why pushing the other end of the belt on so there is no confusion.
@@mlacher100 thanks. I thought this was a clip from another video you made. That’s what I was looking for. I rewatched your clip. I think I got it now. I just have a hard time without verbal instructions. I appreciate your help very much.
@denisef1153 I did make a second video of the other side last night , with more instructions, because I was getting some complaints on this video. I watched this video, and I think it is not bad as far as instructions. Thanks again.
You just saved me from buying a brand new vacum man really appreciate you taking your time to upload this for everyone!
Amen, no problem, that's why I made the video, because I was getting ready to buy a new one myself if I could not figure out how to get it apart. I'm glad it was useful to you!

I am happy that this video was a blessing for you. Thank you for the kind words!
Great video. Very clearly SHOWS (as other videos don't) how all the levers go back in. Thanks.

Great video! I've taken apart a lot of vacuums but really struggled with this model. This was very helpful!
You're welcome. God bless, happy to hear it was helpful for you!
I think that Shark vacuums suck!!! Shark vacuum are made so that a simple thing as changing brush roll is so HARD to do that you are almost forced to buy a new vacuum!!!
Unless you figure a way to make them last longer than what they intend them to. I hear you on your comment.
Thanks for the video. I looked for a while for something like this for my duo clean lift away. Got in following your directions and my belt was all frayed. New one coming tomorrow, hope it works. Fingers crossed.
You will be fine, thank you
Awesome. Thanks this video helped me figure out how to change the belt before I destroyed the vacuum cleaner.
No problem, I'm glad it was helpful. I have another video for the other side!
Thank you so much 🙏🏽✨ The way you explained how to get the belt on and everything else ❤️✨
Thank you, I'm glad it was helpful to you!
Thank you so much for your video! It’s the only video I could find to fix this bloody hoover
No problem, l, that's why I made it because there were no videos. I am going to do another video eventually for the other side because people were asking about belt sizes.

@christym4336 not sure about that! Good luck with finding the right part.
You literally cut away from the part I needed to see. Thanks
Np, you can check out the second video. You might have what you are looking for.
I came here looking for something else as well. I wasn't sure how to replace the front wheel on my nv835, but it looks like under the belt covers is where I have to go to remove the wheel pin. Thanks

Longer cord!

Thank you, I have 2 dogs, so I have to clean the hoses out a lot! Thanks for the comment!
THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!
God bless!!
Thank you so much that help me a lot
Thank you for the comment!

Its security torx bits huskey sells a set. Homedepot. You can go to my playlist, and I did a tool review of them as well.
@@mlacher100 thank you. I clean houses and have 2 of these vacuums. I need them both running. Thank you!!
@conniemeadesfarlow163 Thank you for the kind words!
Thanks buddy really useful.
Np, thank you! Happy it was useful!
Here comes the most important part…….”Welcome back!”
Yes, welcome back!

Thanks for this video. Do you know what belt size is needed for the larger roller?
I'm sorry I do not next time I have it apart I will add it to the description.
Since the spring "thing" is the worst part then maybe it would have been helpful to show how it was taken apart and put back together

Could you help me with the size or number for the longer belt on the other side. It has stretched and is slipping
I will have to pull mine apart to get a number
Thank you, I appreciate any help.
Mines not on the list but… it’s snow machining and being pulled by a snow machine while I’m on a snowboard xD
Lol! You found alternatives uses for it!
I got it on, no problem, but it chew it up somehow, that's why I has to replace it
Hey Brother, you're a good man! Maybe you'd like to work on my honey do list some? LOL. God bless.
Lol Steve, I always help a friend that is in need! Even if its on his honey do list!
My belt chewed up the side of the housing
I have 2 videos of this vaccum, one for each side. I hope this helps?
Sounds like one of your bearing may be bad?
Didn’t show s*** didn’t show how to take off the side cover just when it was off didn’t show how to take off or put on the belt just showed after
You pull it apart with your hands after you take the screws out. Say's that in the video. It says to roll the new belt on, spin the brush while pushing on the belt. Over 20k views, some of them people thanking me for making the video, your the first complaint, hope you have a better day...
I agree it this is so confusing But I’m missing something because I also don’t see 20,000 thank you’s . Or comments. I’ll keep looking.
