If you are a Kirby vacuum owner you know how well the Kirby cleans. It can be irritating when the vacuum does not work as well as it normally does. If you need to repair a component in the cleaning tool for enhanced performance, you will need to be careful not to break anything or to cause more damage to the unit.

1.    Unplug vacuum
2.    Put vacuum on the floor, on it’s side
3.    Use gloves when accessing panels
4.    Read the manual to find the correct way to get to unit parts

When you have reached a part that you believe may need repaired, consult your manual or a Kirby repair professional. Some repairs will require simply replacing a part that has become weak or broken. Other repairs may require more skill and tools to get the job done. These may require a service call.

If you believe that your Kirby vacuum is still under warranty for a specific repair, be sure to contact your representative. One of the best things about high quality cleaning tools is their valuable warranty. Don’t try to do a repair yourself if you have warranty and can get the items fixed without any cost.
