Introducción
Reemplaza el cepillo giratorio de la aspiradora Shark Rocket HV301. Existen algunas razones por las que puede necesitar reemplazar el cepillo giratorio de su aspiradora. Por ejemplo, las cerdas pueden desgastarse con el tiempo o las tapas de los cojinetes en los extremos del cepillo pueden atascarse, lo que impide que el cepillo gire correctamente.
Esta es una reparación simple que puede realizar cualquier persona y puede mejorar las capacidades y la vida útil de su aspiradora. Se puede hacer con herramientas comunes a las que casi todos deberían tener fácil acceso. Sin embargo, se proporcionan enlaces en todo el sitio en caso de que no tengas una de las herramientas necesarias. Puedes encontrar un enlace al manual del propietario en aquí.
Qué necesitas

Gira la aspiradora de modo que la base inferior quede visible.
-
Haz palanca suavemente para sacar las dos ruedas inferiores con una herramienta de apertura de plástico.

Quita los cinco tornillos visibles con un destornillador Phillips n.° 2.
-
Ubica y gira los tres tornillos de plástico hasta la posición de desbloqueo con un destornillador de 25 centavos o de punta plana.
They don't have Phillip's screw heads. They have Star head size T15
Yes, mine are not PH2 but star 15, my problem is I cannot reach two of the screws that are so deep into the molding of the plastic, I cannot get my star T15 in there. Now what?
Nunya -
Mine had Phillips on all the steps.
I had T15 screws too; later in the process they had pegs in the middle so I had to use a T15 security driver head which has a hole in the peg. To reach the deep screws in the current steps you should use a dedicated T15 driver (which has a narrow enough shaft to get through the hole) or a driver head with a long shaft.

Mine is not opening as wide as the one pictured here; very difficult to get my fingers in enough to grip. Any suggestions?
I thought I broke plastic two or three times when prying stuff apart, but everything seemed intact and snapped back into place OK. Some wires kept trying to poke out by one of the wheels, though.
A note to Reassembly- be very careful that the 3 wires coming out by the right wheel are tucked into the protective guide hole on the wand end.(1/2" circular hole with slit for wires) Then when you seat the assembly in the body they're not pinching and still in the guide hole.
I had to do a repair because I had previously not paid attention to the wires and the power wire pinched apart. -

Utiliza un destornillador Phillips n.° 2 para quitar los cuatro tornillos visibles que sujetan el cepillo giratorio a la aspiradora.
Torx 15 security, not Phillips
My shark same model as this the screws definitely aren’t a Phillips head. I tried all them * star screwdrivers Allen wrench I can’t get them off. Please help.
Use a T15 Torx screw driver (or driver head). Later in the process I needed to use a T15 security head; someone at Rocket really doesn't want us doing this.

Levanta suavemente la carcasa para quitar la correa y el cepillo de la aspiradora.
Did everything as instructed, putting it back together I'm having a difficult time getting the plastic housing back because of a little white piece that's on the motor. Any suggestions?
Remove the two motor mounting screws. Rotate the motor out of the way
The worst just to get the roller brush out for a good cleaning! My experience of taking out these brushes is over 30 years. I have removed my vacuums brush roller at least once a month to clean. Totally not acceptable won't buy another Shark!
Can I remove the roller brush altogether and use the vacuum for suction alone? My wool rugs should not be vacuumed with a beater bar, only suction. Thanks!

Levanta con cuidado la carcasa de plástico de ambos lados del cepillo giratorio.
-
Levanta la carcasa de plástico transparente del cepillo giratorio.
Note that to pry off the casing each end has three major components: the roller, the clear plastic case, and a small white plastic piece that connects the roller to the case. The clear case surrounds the white piece without a break, and the white piece is pressed into the roller. Pry between the roller and the case to loosen the white piece from the roller; this opens a gap between the white piece and the clear case. Then pry between the white piece and the clear plastic case to remove the white piece entirely.

Retira la correa giratoria fijada al cepillo y reemplázala si es necesario.
What model are these specific brushroll
I did all that and had no problem. Due to rug fibers that were lodged in the plastic casing, the plastic itself deteriorates overtime. After cleaning the brush and the plastic casing on both sides it became loose and won’t hold or stay to hold the brush anymore. Where can I order those plastic casing?
Please help me.
Thank you
Andres
THE worst! I've taken rollers out for over 30 yrs once a month to clean them. Should be super easy and not so many steps to do this. I won't buy another Shark this is not acceptable
Directions really helped. Thanks so much. Definitely not user friendly roller or belt replacement. Vacuum engineers apparently wanted suction performance over ease of roller and belt replacement. Either that or they are into schadenfreude! 😀 Vacuum works great, so worth the ordeal.
i followed these directions and the upper casing will not separate. I can't get it open far enough to disconnect the harness. I am working on a HV302. Please advise.

This is a well written and very informative tutorial. Thank you for your time and effort. However, I am finding it difficult to locate a new rotary brush for my Shark Rocket model HV301. At best, I’ve been told that the rotary brushes available ‘May fit’ my vacuum. Hardly a resounding voice of confidence when ordering a replacement part. Does anyone know the part number or ordering information regarding the Shark Rocket model HV301 rotary brush? Thank you for your time.
I also need a new brush did you find out where to get one and could you pass it on to me thank you
Jeffro -
Hi, I'm also having a hard time trying to find the rotary brush roll, does anyone have any suggestions where I can find & purchase it?
Try Amazon.com there are several parts for shark vacuum, just make sure to have the model number in hand. I hope this help.
Thanks!

Thank you ever so much! Who would have thought you’d have to disassemble the vacuum just to get to the roller. Yes, I agree - very poor design. I too am having an issue with the brush. I soaked it in dawn dishsoap and voila! Clean brushes made the world of difference - hope that helps!!
Thank you!!!
Oh! Just a suggestion. If my brush fails completely I thought I might try contacting the manufacturer directly which is in China named Intertek?…
Just called shark directly, you cannot buy just the brushroll, you have to buy the entire head. $96 plus shipping and handling. they do not just make the brushroll to be replaced, so MAY FIT your machine will probably be the best you can do.
These instructions were very easy to follow. They actually saved me. I needed to wash the brush bar and change the belt, but I thought they were going to be a nightmare to get it out. Everything worked out great.
great pictures and easy to follow!! Thank you
My tube cracked! Can anybody help me take apart the head so I can patch/replace it? Part number?
Thank you SO MUCH for this! Had an episode that including fishing reel wire and my vacuum lost. Thanks to this it’s working again !
Yea I used dawn dishwashing detergent to clean the roller brush and other parts. My problem now is where to order the plastic casing that holds the roller brush. Do you know where I can order parts for this model?
I also want to thank the author of the toturial it is really informative. 30 points for the author.
Thank you!!
Try any vacuum cleaner repair shops most will have the parts you need or can order them for you
If the brush roll is damaged you have to replace the whole head because the brush roll is not available separate from the power nozzle.
Great!!! Is there an easy way to pop out those plastic casings at either end?? They are not easy to pry out ——
I am very mechanically inclined, and a normal vacuum cleaner belt would be a breeze could do it with my eyes shut this took me an hour. One bcuz my daughter got my nails done that didn't help at all the little white things you gotta pry off the heater bar was a ##&&% cut myself with a butter knife ?????? even I laughed after I was done cussing. The directions were great putting it back together was a ##&&% but I went back to the directions and hot the job done . Thanks for the help guys. Sincerely Kim Moffatt
Has anyone tried a different roller that ‘MAY FIT’ and found a compatible one? I have the HV300 26 and have counted on it for years. Had taken it apart several times in the past and cleaned it out. My daughters help out by cutting the hair out with scissors. It’s been done so much that the white casings have completely worn. They’ve been shaved down by scissors and now the roller is loose! I’d love to keep this vacuum if there were any roller brush out there that would fit? Even if I could order those white end caps (haven’t found that either). Any suggestions?
(Yeah, I know… buy a new one!)
Very good instructions . All i need now is the right brush. sent model # to get a new brush. The brush sent will fit any vacuum maybe but not this one. Got to stop buying this junk.
Need help replacing hose on floor nozzel model
My roller brush would not budge at all. It was locked up. I found that the plastic cap at the end of the roller opposite the belted end wouldn't come off. After a lot of effort I was able to pry it off. I found that end was all frozen up with threads and some hard, difficult to remove gunk. Once I cleaned up the inside of the roller and plastic cap, the roller brush turned freely.
My roller was seized too. I had to replace mine since the plastic melted.

I have a shark HV 301 26.
It has only dry mop / vac head.
There seems to be electrical connection when you remove the head.
Is there a compatible brush head for this model?
Thanks, Jonathan. Directions and visuals made all the difference. Well worth 30 points and much appreciated.
Can I remove the roller brush altogether and use the vacuum with suction alone? I have wool rugs and they recommend no beater brush.
Replacement brushrolls are not available for many Shark products. They want you to buy a new vacuum cleaner.
I don't understand why the guide says this has #2 philips screws. All of the ones on the model I own are T15 tamper proof bit
Only complaint is mine has T15 screws everywhere you said PH2.
Good instructions except as noted in the comments. The instructions should be edited to reflect those changes.
I don’t know why these companies use a screw that most people don’t have around the house to fit it.
These are in st tight it snaps when it finally turns.
I can’t even use mine now that I have to go out and buy this tool and I have a lot of tool. Not this one. Come on guys.
