Lubrication

The motor is equipped with bearings
that contain sufficient lubrication for
the life of the motor. The addition of
lubricant could cause damage.
Therefore, do not add lubricant to
motor bearings.
The agitator is equipped with two
ball bearings that should be lubricat-
ed periodically by a Hoover Factory
Service Center or an Authorized
Hoover Warranty Service Dealer.
