This is exactly the right way to clean and service the unit. This will ensure the unit is functioning properly into the future, and will also prevent unnecessary overheating and breakdown. At 4:51 she explains and demonstrates the cleaning wand. Sometimes I use it, most times I don't. I have found that taking the cover piece outside and flushing through top and bottom with a garden hose will thoroughly and quickly flush all debris from within. Thanks for the video. It will make a difference for a lot of folks otherwise intimidated by the unit.
I was today years old when I learned that this thing comes apart for Cleaning. Perhaps if I hadn’t thrown the box and instruction materials away, I would’ve known that already. But this video just saved the machine from going in the trash 😂😂😂
For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to remove the second clear cover. I tried to press the two green buttons while simultaneously lifting the clear cover up. Your video showed what I was doing wrong. Thank you!
Thanks for this excellent how to video. My wife couldn't figure out how to get the bottom shells apart and I couldn't either. Your video did the trick and we are very thankful for it. Keep up the great vids and thank-you.
Thanks! Just got this machine and haven't used it yet. I had an earlier pet one and it was a pain to clean. There was no way to clean in certain areas. I was so happy when I saw that cleaning tool. I wanted to watch a how to for it for using and cleaning and found your videos. Very helpful!
Thank you for making this video. I could not figure out how to take off the brush roll cover. So much better to see it done in real time instead of figuring it out from the written directions. Very helpful.
Great video, very informative and easy to understand, she did an excellent job explaining it and showing it 👍👏Shame on bissell for the lack information and NO manual! Who does that 🤷♀…..besides bissell. Just a little side note here for anyone who has a garbage disposal. Not a 100% sure but it appeared she was cleaning the cleaner in the side of the sink that was the garbage disposal. You should NEVER clean anything that is gritty that may have sand, small stones, or anything sand like, such as rinsing off clams, kids dirty muddy sneakers, flip flops etc. sand will eventually get into the seals and bearings of the garbage disposal and shorten the life of the motor, just some food for thought, thats all. Again great job on the video 👍
Great video never took these pieces off. It’s no wonder when I ran the machine it would spit up hair balls like a Siamese cat. I didn’t have the flex piece tool but was able to use flexible small brushes.
Thankfully I have a great vacuum so after 3 full tanks there was almost nothing anywhere that did not come out by rinsing in water. Shark Apex is supreme IMHO and these two used together make your life easier.
You should go from bottom with cleaning wand. That’s why it has the the little hooks / tabs at sides of “T”. To grab and pull. Plus you won’t be putting such stress on the wand with more sever bends as opposed to smoother gradual bends with going thru bottom and pulling out
I have a dog with lots of fur. I could NOT figure out how to pill off those front parts that were packed with it. THank you for showing it was way more easy than I thought. Thank you also for reminding me about that little stick thing that fits inside of the clear plastic cover. I could NOT find the instructions in the instruction book. ❤️
LeAnna, Good Gracious!! Thank you so much for taking the time to do this video. I used my Bissell carpet cleaner a few weeks ago and was so frustrated as to how to clean it. I didn’t know how to use that cleaning tool so thank you so much for showing us how to clean this machine! Well done!
I have to keep watching you video. You give great instructions on cleaning the machine. You might want to put a strainer in your sink, hair is not good.😊
Thank you so much for this video. I almost tried to rip the part where the cleaning tool goes eeeks, kept watching and went to see if my cleaning tool was in with the hose bag and it wasn't. I was thinking and I probably threw that out not knowing what it was ...sad lol
When I pushed in on those button to remove the cover for the brushes, ummm, nothing. So I took a screwdriver and separated the unit a bit so that when I pressed down on the buttons, it freed it up and whalla.
Help! I need to see how the two fixtures of the brush roll cover snap back together onto the machine. I can't seem to get the top cover back onto the machine without it popping back off.
At 3:47...I own the same machine but there is no apparent way to remove that second cover. No tabs to push and release it. Guess I got the cheap-o version from Wal-Mart.
Mine doesn't have the 2 release buttons to get the bottom clear cover over the brushes. It appears that the corrugated hose appears to be clogged and I can't figure out how to get it loose so I can run the tool in ther.HELP.
Can you help me with my first use of this machine. I have cleaned the hallway and I believe I still have too much detergent in the carpet. I have gone over it three times with just water. I have cleaned my machine and I want to wait till the area is dry as the carpet has been down for more than 20 years........................so I want to see the result (a lot came off the carpet dirt and fluff - a lot-) maybe this is normal for first time ??? Thank you for your excellent clip :):):)
Do you have any videos on cleaning the attachment tools, specifically the Tough Stain Tool? I can’t get the clear plastic cover part of it off to clean the hair out on the inside.
Thank you for video very helpful! But one thing i found gross is washing it in your kitchen sink all that gunk 🤮🤢. Other than that it helped me clean mine up 👍👌!
Your carpet must have been pretty clean to start out with. It typically takes me about 45 minutes to clean my Bissell - same model. I typically see a bunch of pet hair and carpet fibers wrapped around those rollers and wiping it with a towel won't get it done. The cleaning tool does nothing to get hair that has wrapped around the rollers or embedded in the bristles out.
After the initial cleaning with the detergent solution, I go over the whole carpeted area with clean water as a rinse. I only do this 2nd rinse every three months after the max cleaning. I do the Express cleaning every month otherwise without rinse. Great video especially the cleaning .
3:40 Do NOT pull up the purple tab and stick your fingers in to pull it out! I did this and cut my middle finger.😠 You're supposed to just reach BEHIND AND UNDER the CLOSED purple tab and pull up.

thank you for putting that since I threw out the cleaning wand

Me too! I was like wait it's that easy?
Thank you. We keep this nearby when disassembling the components. Your video saved our wall (I did not throw this machine at it in frustration)
For the life of me I couldn't figure out how to remove the second clear cover. I tried to press the two green buttons while simultaneously lifting the clear cover up. Your video showed what I was doing wrong. Thank you!

Thank you. I like videos instead of reading the book. Excellent how you explained all of it

Thank you, I borrowed the machine and wanted to clean it before returning it. Your video save me from breaking it.
I watched several different cleaning tips. Thank you. I didnt understand what to do till you explained it.

Very handy tips. Thank you! I can never remember how to disassemble the machine and your video is nice and simple.
Great video never took these pieces off. It’s no wonder when I ran the machine it would spit up hair balls like a Siamese cat. I didn’t have the flex piece tool but was able to use flexible small brushes.
Lol too funny!
Thankfully I have a great vacuum so after 3 full tanks there was almost nothing anywhere that did not come out by rinsing in water. Shark Apex is supreme IMHO and these two used together make your life easier.
Thank you for the detailed tutorial. I found it very helpful.
Thank you! I’m glad you found it helpful :)
Allison, said Best Instruction Video Ever, Thank You!

Exactly what I needed to know after just buying this machine. Thanks!
Great video! I like how you explained and showed how to rinse out the dirty water container!!!
Thank you for showing how to take apart and clean. Very helpful. You shouldn't dump that down your drain though with hair and everything.
I have a dog with lots of fur. I could NOT figure out how to pill off those front parts that were packed with it. THank you for showing it was way more easy than I thought.

What an excellent video -- Bissell should hire you to do all their demonstrations!
Thankyou so much, you've solved my problem of how to get the transparent brush cover off 👍
Thank you for this video, I asked my husband to help me, but he had more important things to do......(nothing just lazy). But thank you again
Thank you so much! This was the best video I found to help with cleaning this machine. :)
Thanks great job of explaining of how to clean the Bissell ProHeat 2X Revolution.
Thanks! I couldn’t get those first 2 plastic pcs off. Thought I was doing it wrong! Nope they were just really stuck!
Best video for this Bissell! TY
You did it...got mine from a neighbor who left calif. No instructions, Needed to remove lower plastic cover thanks!
Great video demonstration on how to clean the Bissell machine !! Thanks !! =)
I appreciate you making this video. Much needed
I have to keep watching you video. You give great instructions on cleaning the machine. You might want to put a strainer in your sink, hair is not good.😊
Thanks so much, my machine needed to be cleaned, maybe the brush will spin now, we will see😊
Thank you for sharing.... it really bothered me that I couldn't figure it out without breaking... Thank you
Thank you much more better than the owners manual
Saved me from buying another one thanks 🙌 great video
I never got that cleaning wand. Great video ! Thanks for sharing it.
Great video. Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video. I almost tried to rip the part where the cleaning tool goes eeeks, kept watching and went to see if my cleaning tool was in with the hose bag and it wasn't. I was thinking and I probably threw that out not knowing what it was ...sad lol
Excellent video, thank you for taking the time to make this demo.
When I pushed in on those button to remove the cover for the brushes, ummm, nothing. So I took a screwdriver and separated the unit a bit so that when I pressed down on the buttons, it freed it up and whalla.
Help! I need to see how the two fixtures of the brush roll cover snap back together onto the machine. I can't seem to get the top cover back onto the machine without it popping back off.
How do you get bottom roller cover off if you dont have the green buttons?
Thank you so much because I've had hair stuck in the suction part for months and I didn't know how to get it out 🤷🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️😂
Mine doesn’t come apart like that and I don’t understand why. It has 4 screws that I have to take out but I can’t get to them….
Thank you 🙏 ❤
Great video by the way! Very informative and well done !!!
At 3:47...I own the same machine but there is no apparent way to remove that second cover. No tabs to push and release it. Guess I got the cheap-o version from Wal-Mart.
Best video ever!!!! Thank you!!!
Thank you so much. Your explanation was very helpful!
You are a life saver!
Girl thank you just took it apart and cleaned it.
Mine doesn't have the 2 release buttons to get the bottom clear cover over the brushes. It appears that the corrugated hose appears to be clogged and I can't figure out how to get it loose so I can run the tool in ther.HELP.
Agreed. Very aggravating to lack release buttons on our model. NOT EASY!
Thanks !!
Great video! Thanks. Liked 👍
But how do the shells clip onto the machine again, I'm doing something wrong and just can't.
Can you help me with my first use of this machine. I have cleaned the hallway and I believe I still have too much detergent in the carpet. I have gone over it three times with just water. I have cleaned my machine and I want to wait till the area is dry as the carpet has been down for more than 20 years........................so I want to see the result (a lot came off the carpet dirt and fluff - a lot-) maybe this is normal for first time ???
Thank you for your excellent clip :):):)
Thank you. This was a great help for me. 👍👍
The model I have I can't remove the brush cover to wash its pain to clean I don't know how to 😵💫😵💫
How do you clean the hose underneath it?
thanks!
So the washing function only works with the trigger pulled, right? Thank you for your video.
Thanks for posting this vid❤️!
Thank you so so so much.
Do you have any videos on cleaning the attachment tools, specifically the Tough Stain Tool? I can’t get the clear plastic cover part of it off to clean the hair out on the inside.
Thank for the video!
👍🏽Excellent video! Thank you! 👍🏽
Pulled the clear piece from the bottom and the purple piece flew off. Clear plastic broke 😢
Thank you! Very helpful
Thank you for video very helpful! But one thing i found gross is washing it in your kitchen sink all that gunk 🤮🤢. Other than that it helped me clean mine up 👍👌!
Thats what bleach is for lol
Thank you so much
Audio's pretty poor but the info is very good. Thanks.
you are my new matha stewart
What about the brushes??
I took the roller cover off but now I can't get it back on noooooooooo
Omg I’ve been using the grey wand from the bottom hooking the hair out 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Your carpet must have been pretty clean to start out with. It typically takes me about 45 minutes to clean my Bissell - same model. I typically see a bunch of pet hair and carpet fibers wrapped around those rollers and wiping it with a towel won't get it done.

Same here!
I put mine in the bath and use a hose. It takes 5 minutes, if that.
Yea but what about the brush heads
I wish you'd have shown how to remove everything.
Thanks
Your house looks so similar to mine! Is it built by Great Southern Homes by chance?
Now I can't get the top plastic back on.
Why not just add an inch of water in the tub instead of sweeping over carpet again? You;'re just getting more fibers stuck in the brush this way.
That could work too!
After the initial cleaning with the detergent solution, I go over the whole carpeted area with clean water as a rinse. I only do this 2nd rinse every three months after the max cleaning. I do the Express cleaning every month otherwise without rinse. Great video especially the cleaning .
@@susangress7901 great tip, thanks!
Next to e turn your volume up or use a mike
THATS WHAT THE WAND IS FOR HOLY F****** S***. Thank you. Now all that dog hair, vomit, and food particles are out of the suction head.
3:40 Do NOT pull up the purple tab and stick your fingers in to pull it out! I did this and cut my middle finger.😠 You're supposed to just reach BEHIND AND UNDER the CLOSED purple tab and pull up.
You really want us to do this in our kitchen sink that’s Gross food is prepped in there
