Electrolux vacuum 2100 repair manual

Remove from wall, set next to wall inlet, plug into electrical, connect hose to tank port or tank intake, put hose handle end into wall inlet, and seal with hand. It may be necessary to suck multiple directions: toward the unit, then toward the inlet, then towards the unit again to loosen the object. Whichever machine you use, also try placing a Free Flow Maintenance Sheet or paper towel inside the pipe where it enters the main canister and then try sucking it back toward the inlet to catch the object in the air pathway.

Consider any recent construction or other work where someone may have driven a nail into a pipe especially closet organizers, phones, alarms, or recent pictures hung. If the clog will not dislodge, then find its exact location by one of several ways: Run paper towel through and listen for humming or vibration. Create louder noise using a ping-pong ball. Insert into inlet, turn on unit, then remove inlet to get ball in.

Endoscopy cameras can be attached to an electrician's fish-tape to view the interior of the pipe. Once the exact location is found, cut the pipe and pull out the clog. Use a coupling to easily put the pipe back together. Important: Once the clog is removed, verify by running a Free Flow Maintenance Sheet through each inlet. If they don't all show up, do it again with numbers on each to determine which valve is clogged. The clog may have migrated to another section of pipe that is out of the air pathway.

Pipes that run underground can sometimes coagulate with debris from moisture. Proper underground installation installs the central vac pipe inside three-inch irrigation pipe. Run 10 pounds of rice through system into the unit, repeat. If ineffective, trench old lines and replace. In rare cases, the old vacuum pipe might need to be abandoned and a new pipe run from a working section to the valve location. Contact a local MD authorized dealer for assistance. NOTE: Proper installation of a central vacuum virtually guarantees no clogging.

Large objects should get stuck at the first elbow just behind the wall valve which is designed to catch items.

A sloppy installation can create opportunities for debris to catch over time. Specific installation errors include Tee's that are installed backwards, pipes rough-cut with a hacksaw, excessive elbows, and pipes not fully inserted into the cuffs of the fittings. Many times, the build-up will eventually get large enough to break way but in rare instances, the clog remains.

Industry-standard inlets have an opening that measures 1. Fortunately, most inlet valves are industry-standard and compatible with the replacement inlet valves we carry. If unable to locate the proper replacement, please contact our Customer Care Team or a local Central Vacuum Dealer for assistance.

Watch the Inlet Valve Installation Video for tips and help. If replacement inlet valves leak air when another valve is being used, place electrical tape on the neck of the valve prior to insertion to form a better gasket. Electrical power to the valve should be turned off prior to working on them or a professional electrician should be hired to make repairs. If you find the break, re-splice broken wire coppers together and tins together. Wires could be disconnected at the main unit.

There is no polarity, so wires can go back into either connection. Can't find the break? Options are as follows: Re-route wire from central vacuum unit or any working inlet to the compromised section of wire or run a whole new wire between the unit and inlet.

Buy central vacuum wire. Add a remote control clicker and receiver to the system. It's easy and convenient. WARNING: Electrical power should be turned off prior to working on installed wires or a professional electrician should be hired to make repairs. Disconnect it from any accessory or wand. If no suction is present through the handle, then insert a long stiff object, such as a table knife.

Also, try removing the clog by reversing the air flow through the hose. This is done by connecting the handle end of the hose to the utility valve on the front of the main power unit. Turn unit on and walk around house listening for a leak, starting in these areas. The air should sound louder and higher pitched where there is a leak.

Verify all vacuum inlets are installed correctly and none of their doors are broken. This includes unused inlets or those tucked out of sight. There may also be inlet valves plastered over, which will require looking down the walls from the attic to find.

See our Central Vacuum Inlets page for a video guide on how to replace your broken inlets and to order replacements. For central vac inlets installed in floor, check for fallen or loose pipe. If the central vacuum power unit has insulation in the filter bag or debris receptacle, then the break is most likely in the attic.

If any central vacuum system pipe runs underground, check for damage from recent gardening or tree roots. You can order the right pipe from us. Contact a local MD authorized dealer for help.

Note that some units have more than motor. If a motor is not working, see our genuine Lamb Ametek vacuum motors page for help in identifying, ordering, and replacing the motor.

Check central vac power unit gaskets and for cracks in housing. Verify the correct voltage is going to power unit. There should be a compliance label on the unit specifying the proper voltage, among other details, such as model and serial numbers.

Check for loose wires and a loose motor. Tighten as needed. Ensure the mini-breaker functions correctly. On a cyclonic power unit, check for the following: Lint and debris in motor fan blades. Lint and debris on screen on intake. JavaScript seems to be disabled in your browser. You must have JavaScript enabled in your browser to utilize the functionality of this website.
