My brother played sports, I stayed home and worked on everything with my dad. He's been gone almost 20 years now and I always feel him with me anytime I'm working on things.
I've never had such difficulty in years of replacing belts as Im having with my windtunnel now. I watched your video to confirm I was doing it right. I appreciate this video! But mine is still challenging. No problem fitting the brush back in without the band, but I can't put it back once the band is on. Tried for hours last night. As if the band is 1/8" too small. But thank you for confirming that this IS the right way. Maybe I was sent the wrong size band!
I'm having the opposite problem, all of the bands are just too big and it won't turn. I don't want to buy a new vacuum there's nothing wrong with mine other than the belt worn through.
Hoover is awesome,because they have a sticker on the bottom with the part numbers for the belt, the bag, and the filter! Done in 10 min with the right part!
What a great helper! I've been watching videos for belt replacement on a Hoover even though I already checked the belt on mine. I kept smelling burning rubber. I just realized there was a small, what seems like foam rubber ring, just about an inch in diameter, hanging loose on that metal drive, between the belt and the vacuum. It has a couple places where it looks like it must have been caught against the drive, so that's probably what I was smelling. I can't find where it came off, and I'm not finding it as a replacement part on Hoover's website. Anyone have any ideas? My vacuum is a Hoover Windtunnel 2 Whole House Rewind, model UH71250.
awesome lil helper there . my problem now is strength to stretch my belt and rolling brush back into grooves. My odd belt was leftover from last 2 belt order I used one and was able to stretch on my own. I am nearly 9 years older since that repair and seems and I am just not as strong... oh well maybe need to replace belt with more pliable one. Amazon here I come.
I'm looking for the wind tunnel that has two belts a very thin one and the fat one I don't know where the fat one goes there's only one break and a little belt is already there
Love the patience with letting your Daughter participate!
I am most appreciative of you, Luke, and happy you included your little one into helping you out re-assembling the vacuum. Many thanks!

Useful video! You’re a great dad, to teach your kids to do stuff. ❤
Perfect! I just changed the belt while following your instructions. I especially like how you shined the light on that little metal rod. Most helpful!
Thank you sir you and your adorable children helped me a lot 🙏👼💝
Thank you! Believe it or not, I have an even older model, but your video still aided me in what to look for to find the right placements. Thank you
So good teaching youngins!

Thank you for the video. The belt came off and I had to reattach it. Your getting a like from me for sure.
Thank you for sharing this! Just bought a used one, so this will be good to know!
Thank you very much for sharing this video! This is so helpful.
Thank very much Luke. Any other household repairs I choose to tackle I'll see if you got a video for it first.
Awesome video. I'll be sucking dirt off the floor in no time. 😂

I'm honestly not certain; I'd check for you but we have since replaced our vacuum. Sorry and good luck!
What tool was used I don't see Phillips heads on mine?
Thanks for the quick fix

Thanks. It was helpful
Oh my, you are severely outnumbered.... 4 girls.... yikes. Spiffy repair, lil helper did good lol
You should have also replaced the brushroll too.
FYI. Hoover Windtunnel 2 the screws are in the top to remove the bottom.
Thank you!
Whats size belt is needed
Kids sound so darling, vedio helped
Are you planning to sell the Hoover vacuum?
Hadn't thought that far ahead yet.
@@LukesAmateurHour because I was wondering if you sell the vacuum cleaner if you can ship the vacuum? I live in Texas
Thank u
Cool beans!
Thanks man!
Thank you!!
Helpful but frustrating waiting for kids to help
the brush roll needs replacing
It sure does! I think the next vacuum money we spend will be on a roomba though.
Yay! Success. Thanks :) Hug the girls for me.
Thank you!
