Hi
Hi Matt, You only need to change the belt when the L.E.D starts to flicker when it is dropped to the correct hight for the type of flooring you are cleaning. Or If you want you can change it every 6 month.Depending on usage. You can wash the outer kirby Gsix bag in the washer at a low temp like 40c If your using genuine kirby bags it should not need doing to often at all. I don't take my kirby's for yearly check ups I do it myself. Just keep your brush roll clear of lint, Check bag reg, Belt every so often. Check the level of the brush roll bristle are set at the correct hight not to low or to high if worn. every few years check your carbons and just genrally look after it. Hope this helps. James | ||

James, Good advice, the newer style Kirby belt seems to last much longer than the older style. With the Micron Magic bags, I have never even had dust on the fill tube inside my machine, when I change the bag, I take a damp cloth and wipe down the fill tube, perhaps even take another vacuum and dust out the inside and outside of the bag. Other than than that, I may polish the metal with Mothers Mag. Enjoy your Kirby for years to come Matt, it will treat you well! Morgan | ||

G6 Rules Hi Matt Just wondering how you are enjoying your Kirby. With care you will do fine no need to really ever wash the bag i have a g3,4,5, never had to wash any of the bags. What i no you should do every six to eight weeks is take the brush roll out and clean all the hair etc that collects. Ok Matt take care Doug | ||
