Introduction

If your Hoover Power Path Deluxe FH50951 is having suction issues such as water and debris not being sucked into the dirty water tank, you can replace the nozzle using this guide.

The nozzle vacuums debris dislodged by the brushes and water dispenser. Before using this guide, if you are experiencing low or no suction, work through these troubleshooting guides in order to isolate the nozzle as the culprit. Cracks, deformation, punctures, or severe blockages are reasons the nozzle needs to be replaced.

Before replacing the nozzle, make sure the device is turned off, unplugged, and the dirty water tank is removed.

    • Remove the four 18.6 mm screws with arrows listing 5-8 using a Phillips #1 screwdriver.

    • Remove the wheel assembly on the left side of the vacuum.

    • You may need a longer Phillips #1 screwdriver for screw #7.

    • Lift up the belt to give enough slack to allow the brush roll to come out.

    • While lifting the belt, pull/push upward away from the cleaner to pop it out.

    • It may seem like the brush rolls wont come out but just put more force into it.

    • Gently slide the belt off of the motor shaft and lift it out of the vacuum.

    • Loop one end of the new belt around the motor shaft, making sure it sits securely in the groove.

    • Ensure the belt is securely placed in the correct slot on both the motor shaft and the brush roll. A loosely installed or improperly positioned belt can slip, break, or prevent the brush roll from spinning correctly, potentially damaging your vacuum. Double-check that the belt is aligned and tensioned properly before reassembling the vacuum.
