Don't be a SUCKER!
I was vacuuming my house today when I accidentally sucked up one of my shoe laces. My quick reflexes told me to swiftly pull out the shoe lace and continue vacuuming. Attached to my white shoe lace was some hot yellow stringy substance. I turned off the vacuum out of fear and astonishment. What on earth is this stuff?! When I turned it back on to continue cleaning, the brush roll wasn't spinning. Oops... I walked away and went about my business hoping that the vacuum would fix itself in my absence. Unfortunately when I returned to the device minutes later it was in the same condition. When my mom came over we decided to get out Josh's tools and see what we could do. On the bottom of the vacuum I read the words 'to clean brush roll remove screws 1,2,3,&4. It took a lot longer to find the right head that fit and an extender thingy. We finally got all the screws out but couldn't figure out how to pull off the cover. As I looked at the device from a different angle I saw the words 'brush roll reset' above a tiny red button...."this is awkward..." I said to my mom as I push the button. It couldn't have been that easy could it? We laughed for a long time. Then I plugged the vacuum in, turned it on, and what do you know? It was fixed. You may think that we are suckers, but think again because I'm pretty sure it wouldn't have worked again without us spending all the time we did to take out the screws and put them back in. If you need any help fixing things around your house don't hesitate to ask us. She is really handy with the tools, and I am great at pushing reset buttons.
