+Marialla What model do you have? I have two the Ultimate G Series and The Ultimate G Series Diamond Edition. I do the stuff you see in the video myself i might take mine in to be professionally done.

Mariella just be careful and make sure you know what you're getting before you go (unless you're taking it to the people in this video). I know plenty of vac dealers that would charge $70 or more to service a Kirby, and while they would get it working like new again, they wouldn't fully disassemble much less clean/lubricate each and every part like these people. I just recommend you ask what the service includes before dropping your machine off. :)

Poyo

amen no doubt about it KIRBY is number one in reliability

I just purchased a used one do they still maintenance it for 70?

The Best is Kirby, made in good old Ohio!

Thank you! Yes, we still service our customers vacuums the same way, even better in many cases.

It's a thing of beauty! I just purchased my first Kirby Legend II and it is the shizzy.

I can only agree

Good price for service.

Hi there, who did you use in the uk for servicing your Kirby?

I know this is an old comment but i had the same issue after paying to have mine serviced. I ended up taking the outer bag apart and washed it, and voila!! With a few febreze unstoppables in the bag compartment it now smells wonderful when vaccuuming!!

Denis Deslauriers Me too! $20 for the Heritage....then I lucked up 2 weeks later and got the Avalir with everything for $150!

Not sure which models you have but I will try to give you some advice: Changing the bags and replacing the belts often will help some. If that doesn't help, you might inspect the roller brushes. You can adjust them by rotating the numbered end caps to the next number (2). If you have models prior to the Generation Series, you will see screw heads on the ends of the roller brushes. You can turn them evenly until more brush bristles protrude about 1/8 past the rug plates. If nothing helps after that, if may be time for a thorough service. There may be rubber fan case gaskets that are worn that need replacing, the fans could need replacing from erosion over the years, the outer bags and fill tubes may need thorough cleaning and the commutator may need to be cleaned.

Matt Jones I have a G4 that does that! What does it mean???

tyler5310 There is a spacer that sits behind the fan. It keeps the fan from rubbing against the housing. Anyway, the spacer has a rubber cover around it and that rubber touches the eyelet on the bearing housing. If dry, it will squeak. While not threatening, it can be pretty annoying. If you take on the job yourself, use enough bearing grease to grease the spacer and cover both. It will also help if you grease the fan shaft, too. I had a friend tell me about this, because I tried everything I could think of, but never thought about the spacer.

***** There have actually been times where that has actually happened, lol.

+Mathew Grinnell This music is "The William Tell Overture". Also used as the theme song to The Lone Ranger.

No, most just repair; meaning they just fix the problem. We clean and service EVERYTHING to avoid problems.

Tylon Barnes It's called a commutater cleaning stick for cleaning up the commutater. Just google it they only cost around 15 quid.

In the video, that was Kirby Scuttle. I use Windex on the aluminum parts, and sometimes on the plastic. I use Mean Green to get paint marks off the bumper.

Mother's Mag & Aluminum Polish....Walmart sells it or any auto parts store.... works great

No, that's not true. A Kirby doesn't need servicing every six months. Whoever told you that lied to you. Carbon brushes should last for years before they need replacing. The only parts that need replacing often are a belt and disposable bag. A belt can go every six months to a year; a disposable bag maybe every three months at the max.

@@mattjones7621 thanks for this. How often do you get your kirby serviced?

@@taksiobs You're welcome, Ted. I do my own work, since I am a vacuum cleaner tech. I used to service mine once a year, because I would run them almost daily. We have five people and six animals in the house. However, I have slowed down on that. If you use your Kirby quite often, you may consider taking it in once every three years at the most.

@@mattjones7621 I swear, we only consume 2 to 3 bags in a year. Not heavily used. That's why if the service tech says something is broken, I'd really say that kirby is a scam. We live in a small apartment. Not even carpeted. The sales man was good though selling us something that's too much for us. Like driving a Ferrari on a 40km road.

I just bought a Legend II it doesn't have the power transmission on it but is pretty much the same.

Its recommended to service every 2 to 3 years.
