Today, my aunt dropped off her Kirby Classic II at my house so I could maintenance it, while I was working on it, I decided to take a look at the nozzle. I removed it and unscrewed the screw that holds on the belt on/off thing. When I removed the screw, the whole thing fell apart and now I have to figure put how to put it back together. But the problem is I don't know how to put it back together because this is my first Kirby restoration. If anyone can tell me how to put it back together, that would help so much!

First, put the silver ring on the plastic lifter, then the yellow one. Place it on the rug nozzle, and take the metal finger and align it with the notches on the lifter. Screw it back together again. The black ring makes it harder to turn, I never put it back on when I serviced my Heritage 84 and it still works fine.
