I faffed around trying to remove the base thinking I had missed a screw,then thought the rise and lower arrangement was preventing the base coming off, then searched you tube, to discover I only had to lay it flat to separate base from top, so many thanks for this how to video.

3rd March 2017 Hello Alec Thank you for your very informative 'Belt changing Video. If it hadn't been for you my Vax would have sailed out through the window!!! With a few well chosen words as it went. Followed your easy step by step instruction and the belt was soon changed. Back in action with the Vax and have bookmarked the video for future reference.
