How to Identify and Fix Common Vacuum Problems ?
Our sources include academic articles, blog posts, and personal essays from experienced Vacuum Technicians :
If you want to completely remove filters, go to the Data tab and click the Filter button, or use the keyboard shortcut Alt+D+F+F.
(don`t use detergent or wash in a dishwasher or washing machine). Rinsing under the water supply then gently squeezing the water out of the filter. Repeat until the water runs clear.
The pre-filter needs to be replaced every three months. Just slide the tray out of the base, and dump the dirty filter directly in the trash. Try not to let any of the accumulated dust or hair fall off. If the tray is dirty, you can wipe it with a damp cloth or paper towel.
The serial number and WiFi information can be found in the following locations: On the front of the user guide. On a removable sticker on the front of the purifier. On your purifier, located underneath the filter.

We would recommend trying to twist the filter in the casing until it becomes loose. Sometimes, there can be a small build up of dust around the edge of the filter which can make it difficult to remove from the casing.
I hope that this information is useful to you.

.The other end of the drive belt the part you cant see goes to a clutch.
.The clutch unit has 2 belts one is clutch to motor the second is clutch to brush roller.
.You obviously look after your machine because you say you have had no problems with belts or clutch for 5 years.
.Both belts & clutch can be worked on but its alot to explain so look at this site for service manuals.

.IF YOU CAN DO THIS REMOVE THE ROD TRIGGER ASEMBLY FROM THE TOP AND THEN PLACE THE BARE ROD BACK INTO THE BASE WITHOUT THE TOP AND ALIGN THE ROD TO THE TRAP DOOR LATCH AND GENTLY PUSH DOWN WITH SOME PRESSURE AND WITH A BIT OF LUCK SHOULD RELEASE BOTTOM FLAP IF SUCCESFUL WASH BOTTOM LATCH ASSEMBLY WITH HOT WARE AND REMOVE DUST & DEBRIS AND REASSEMBLE,

I suspect the belt you are to refering to is the one from the clutch to the brush bar. Unfortuenately the other belt is hidden under a plastic cover, so you cant see if it is okay or not without some dismantling. This cover is not easy to remove and requires a Torx driver to under the securing screws.
Have a look at www.dysonmedic.com, but unless you have access to such a tool, probably time to call Dyson or a Vacuum repairer.
