Difficulty

Moderate

Steps

10

Time Required

30 - 45 minutes

Introduction

If you need to install or replace new wheels in your ZCWA BR151 vacuum, access the wheels from the underside of the device by using this guide. There could be a buildup of dust or other foreign objects in the wheel chambers, causing a potential blockage. A complete replacement may not be necessary. The wheels are moderately accessible, but there are several pieces to remove for full access. You will not need to do any difficult steps, but be advised that there are several pieces to keep track of. Be cautious when separating the top of the device from the bottom of the device; the two components are held together by wiring. Before starting the guide, be sure to power off the device and drain any water from the device's water tank.

    • Carefully lift the bottom panel off of the top.

    • The top and bottom panels are attached by a set of wires. They will not fully detach at this point.

    • Though optional, we recommend separating the top and bottom panels for easy access to the wheels.

    • Pinch the wire bracket that is on the top panel while pulling the bracket away.

    • Pull the cable away from the connector in the same direction as the individual wires are running.

    • Pull evenly on the full width of the cable so that no individual wires are overly strained.
