Start the new agitator assembly back into the nozzle housing by placing the slide arch back into the agitator end cap, then the side opposite the belt partially into the nozzle housing slot. The small tabs should be aligned with the nozzle and the other against the lower plate. This will hold the agitator in place and leave both hands free to place enough tension on the belt to allow the other side of the agitator to return into the nozzle housing slot. 4. Use both hands to pull the belt tight, slide the agitator assembly firmly into the slots on each end of the nozzle housing. 5. Rotate the agitator assembly by hand to insure nothing rubs and to check for correct assembly. 6. Replace the lower plate as outlined in the Lower Plate Replacement section.
