My 2 1/2 year old grandson LOVES this video. He has to watch it at least once every time he comes over. We have probably seen it 25 times and he is mesmerized every time. Thanks from the both of us.
This was a great help. I took the bottom part off and the rubber band wasn't attached to anything. Usually get my husband to sort it out, but he away for work. So thought before I go out buy a new vacuum I checked and then I was like hmm how and where does this rubber band go. Your video helped sort it all out. Problem solved and vacuum in use again. Thankyou.
I have the same vacuum and just cleaned it today. This is like the best vacuum I have ever bought and I bought many. This one you can literally take apart manually just to do basic cleaning. Thanks for your awesome video.
Thank you for this video!! I need to clean mine and Bissell’s official video was so dry and simple. Yours gave me the level of detail and visual that I needed.
Hi found your video, just in time. I followed the video and my vaccum is back in action. I discovered the roller wasn't turning. No problem went back and found the reason why. I missed the re-attach belt instruction. This is a fantastic video. Thank you so much.
I have the exact same vacuum cleaner I almost threw out! After new belt, cleaning etc...I couldn't figure out why I couldn't get the little front wheels back on🤣 Love me a great up-cycle project! Thank you! Finally a useful DIY video!
Loved your "he he" when you unclogged. I have this vacuum and love it. Just wanted to note that it looked like the filter was in backwards when you took it apart. White "coffee filter" section goes in first toward top handle.
This video changed my life. I was unemployed, unhealthy, and alone. Then I watched this video and my life was transformed forever. Now I'm the CEO of a successful company, I have a six pack, I'm happily married, and have two healthy sons. Thank you Helping U Online for the amazing video!!!
Awesome Video...I have the 2256 upright...Looks almost identical to yours and I'm waiting for Bissel to send me new brush and belt. Got new Filter as well. Good job, Thanks a million
I have the same vacuum and take it apart weekly to clean it, but my foot catch is broken, and now thanks to you I can fix it! Excellent video. Thank you so much😊 I will br replacing the foot catch and where the hose attaches to the cylinder. Wish me luck
I'm a vacuum repair person and I Repair a lot of vacuums That are different Then this one A lot of people don't take care of their vacuums correctly and you save them from throwing them away I know how to put the attachments on every vacuum correctly and Put parts together correctly When I do this the vacuums last way Longer than Other people's vacuums ✌🇺🇸
I watched this video for fun Because I know how to repair vacuums already No offense this video is freaking great I smashed the like and subscribe button like There's no tomorrow😎🔥🆘🆙🆗🆒
That looks like a model 1700 or very similar model 2191. They’re cheap, but very lightweight and clean surprisingly well. Though I would not recommend them for people with allergies. I did a RUclips video on a model 1700 and recently gave away two 2191s that work, though they needed minor work, over OfferUp. All three of them were trash picked. I have rescued dozens of vacuum cleaners from dumpsters over the last nine years.
I have a Bissell Powerglide Model 3545 bag version i just bought works except for the height adjustment will not move it's stuck at level # 3 - Your video was Very helpful at 7:32 i think i see how to adjust the vacuum height ? i got the Bissell off craigslist for $15 then spent another $15 for 9 Bissell brand bags - all in all it will work for my use
Gee, that was a very informative video, but I was hoping that you would show someone how to change the electrical power switch. I mean, how to access the power switch so one could change it.
Thank you for the great video! Could you tell me what the name of that part is at 4:54? I need to replace it, but I can't seem to find it anywhere. Maybe it is not replaceable? The metal screen tore on one section of it. Help! :) (mine is a little different model than the one you are showing.
Thanks for that. Mine is red and the spindle for the belt is black against a black background, so for the life of me I could not see where to place the end of the belt. Thanks for your video mate!
I know this is an old video... my bissel doesn't even turn on when plugged in. Is there anything you can reccomend for a deeper dive on that or if you'd just replace it? I have tools and I'm thinking about breaking this thing down to learn.
Could be you have a bad switch , Loose or frayed wire or possibly your motor is burned out. Electricity can be very dangerous To work with. I cannot recommend you do this but if you know somebody that is experienced working with electricity you may have them check it out before you throw it away.
At 11.24 when you talk about the hose attachment with the nubs lol... what is that white plastic piece called? That's what I have to replace but don't know what to call it
Thank you so much for this in depth video man. Mine stop working after I bought it for $55 from Walmart and after few weeks unfit don’t work . I opened up and one the rubber belt is broken 😆. Any idea where to get those belt
Most are just a plastic knob with steps on the underside of that knob increase or decrease the height. You may want to check that knob and make sure it’s not broken or what address against (the wheel bar). It is a very simple design
Hey I get a whirring sound with mine and it smells like it's burning does that mean the motor is going I cleaned out the filter I cleaned out the build up around the bottom but it still makes the sound and smells weird
Sounds like your motor is struggling. I would clean the brush especially the two ends and make sure the bearings on the ends are clear of hair and dirt. I would also pull the bottom belt cover off and check the belt and motor shaft and make sure that is all clean and clear. The burning smell is probably because there is a restriction and the roller brush is not spinning freely causing the motor shaft to spin faster than the rubber belt and that is possibly where you’re burning smell is coming from
Hey buddy, did you have the height adjustment knob out? I did and can't figure out how to get it back in and working. Can you advise me? Thanks much my friend.
If you get the notches on that lined up perfectly with the hole it’ll push right in and then you turn it and it locks in place. it would probably Be easiest if you remove the belt and roller cover and lift up and remove the wheel as I showed him the video and then put that hide adjustment knob in… Lining up the nachos and then turn it… Then put your wheels back in then the belt cover back on and you’re all set
If yours is like the one in this video… Turn it upside down and there is a little clip underneath over by the back wheels… Just press those two tabs together and push out and that will release the wheels for you
I am a 40 y.o women... pretty but single ;) And i have 3 rabbits. My vaccum kept stop working and i keep replaced them everytime wich cost me a fortune! So this time ive tryed and watchinf your video helped me! ive done it! so proud of myself! see... men can be replacable!!!! hahahhaha sorry ... couldnt resist. thanks a lot!!!
We got rid of our couch and ofcourse there was a bunch of junk underneath. Went to vacuum and had no suction! Pulled it apart and there was a hard plastic square up against the hose that wasn't letting anything go up. All fixed and ready to go!
So there is no filter behind the red triangle? That's where all the air blows out. Those pipes clog too easily. The worst feature however, is the way too short hose! Even with extensions it's less than 8 feet so you have to pick the whole thing up to reach ceilings and windows. Very inconvenient.
Free Advice - Take the vacuum completely apart apart and clean it. You will find three more filters that will need to be cleaned as well since the internal parts of the vacuum are likely to be filthy too.
I cleaned the wheel and put the belt back in place and now it seems like the belt won’t turn and has a burning smell? Does anyone know how to resolve this or do I need a new vacuum cleaner?
Take the belt off and turn on your vacuum you should hear it running freely… That means your motor is spinning free. Then unplug your vacuum and without the belt on turn the roller brush and it should spin freely. If both of those are spinning freely Then put your belt on and everything should be running fine. If one or the other does not spin freely check for hair or debris keeping it from spinning freely
I used to find so many nice vacuums in peoples trash. I'd bring them home and figure out what was wrong. I have a regular Bissell power force. What's helix??
sounds like there is a restriction somewhere keeping it from spinning freely and causing heat to build up. May be the motor or the roller brush that is not free. check for hair or debris build up restricting it...

If your vacuum does not have a brush on/off switch, then you cannot use the attachments with the pick up hose without the main brush roll spinning at the same time. إذا لم يكن للمكنسة الكهربائية الخاصة بك مفتاح تشغيل / إيقاف للفرشاة ، فلا يمكنك استخدام مرفقات المكنسة الكهربائية الخاصة بك من خلال خرطوم الالتقاط دون الحاجة إلى تدوير الفرشاة الرئيسية في نفس الوقت.

Mine just needed cleaning
I always find nice vacuums that people just throw out cuz they are too lazy to clean it.
Thank you. Hoping to figure out how the hose is configured on the back of my Bissell Aeroswift Compact
You can do it
Excellent

Good to hear

Walmart probably sells them or go online
Great video. My height adjustment does not work. I can't tell as to why. Got any suggestions?
Most are just a plastic knob with steps on the underside of that knob increase or decrease the height. You may want to check that knob and make sure it’s not broken or what address against (the wheel bar). It is a very simple design
very interested, thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I just picked one of these up but the brush does not rotate freely. Is there a way to remove an end cap from the roller and clean it out?
This may help you with your question...

Thank you so much. God bless.

Wow you did it will. Thank you.
Thank you too!
I would love to know how to stop my shark navigator pet vacuum from having the power head drop when I lift it.
My Bissell small internal hose in the shampooer disintegrated and I cannot find how to get to the ends to replace it.
My suction works on the bottom but my compartment isn’t filling up with dust. Do you know what the prob could be?
I have exact same vacuum unfortunately cleaning it like you showed I left brushroll on while running water and wheel bearing siezed 😢
Thank you
He didnt take apart the one part i needed to see! The power button lol! Great video though!
Thank you! ❤
You're welcome 😊

I'd leave that out in the shed for a while, as a bedbug surviver the thought of grabbing a vac off the curbside makes me wanna hide in a hole.
I cleaned the wheel and put the belt back in place and now it seems like the belt won’t turn and has a burning smell? Does anyone know how to resolve this or do I need a new vacuum cleaner?

Bigger compartment- cheaper
The metal part that holds the belt keeps heating up on mine causing the belt to break

I use feed bags for garbage, too lol

You need a new motor or new vacuum
You should knock on their door, leave it with a note saying all fixed😅
No attachments? For the price you paid, you were cheated. LoL
Wow this is a obligar
