Step 8

Remove the top half of the cleaner. There are four screws underneath the cleaner that hold it in place.

To access the bearings, the wheel hub cover must be removed. To do this take a flat head screw driver to pry off the lid using the small notch in the hub.

---

Step 10

Once the hub cover is out you can now access the wheel screw. Use a flat-head screw driver to remove this screw. After the screw is removed, you can place it and the washer to the side.

Step 11

The wheel can now be taken off the axle. Do this by gripping both sides of the wheel and pulling straight off the axle. Repeat this process for the remaining 3 wheels.

Step 12

Before installing the bearings on the new wheels, note how they are installed on the old ones. When installed in the wheel, the notched ends should be facing one another. To remove them, insert yoru finger into the bearing then pull it out.

Step 13

Install the new rubber tires on the wheels and place them aside for now.

---

Step 23

Next, install the 2 rear wheels securing them to the axle with the plastic screw and washer. Once you’ve made your adjustments, you can tighten the axles.

---

Step 24

The grooves on the front wheels must fully engage the turbine shaft. Be sure to spin the wheel to check that the shaft is in contact with the grooves inside the wheel. If the shaft is in place then both wheels connected to the shaft should turn at the same rate.

---

Step 25

Once the wheel is in place, tighten the axle screws then secure the wheel in place with the plastic screw. Repeat the process for the second front wheel. Spin the wheels to make sure the spin freely. if not, readjust the axles.
