Do these come with instructions on how to change the belt (installation instructions)?

no, not as I remember. But it's easy to do if you look carefully at how the old belt is placed.

no but its real simple, the belt mounts in a figure 8. I thought it was strange but it does work.

No! the belt and rod assembly are a separate order. I used my original belt and "rod" assembly and it worked fine!

You can change them yourself. There are even videos on YouTube that show the process. Its very easy! I would waste time and money taking it to a service center for that. Hope that helps.

Mine came with instructions. Try contacting the company or checking out their web site.

slipping the belt over to the adjacent size pulley is how speeds are changed. It can be a little tricky the first time or two, but once you get the hang of it, it only takes 15 to 30 seconds to change the belt.

No there isn't any instruction.. but its very easy to change those lights. . You wouldn't have to break anything. .you need a flat had screwdriver And just be gentle..

No. But the clutch assembly has to be taken completely apart. It's very difficult to reassemble the clutch with the new belts. I chose to buy the new clutch /new belts and replace the whole thing. It worked and fit perfectly. Good luck.

I also am having the same problem. I called the customer service number & she said to make a loop and get it just right and it comes right off. Not on mine. There doesn't seem to be a slot where the old belt can slide off. Help?? Anyone??

You dont have to loosen the belt. To change the speed, open the top cover, on the diagram under the top cover you have the different speed settings, once you know the speed, all you have to do is pull the belt up or down and turn the pulley at the same time. I hope this helps.

I believe it does. You do need a belt lifter to get it on. It is rather difficult. The replacement belts are smooth.

Not with the DC07 that I purchased in the UK about 6 years ago and when I recently bought new Dyson belts (they are sold in pairs) there was no mention of a tool in the fitting instructions. I put a strong cord through the belt to pull the belt through the slot in the plastic which is between the drive spindle and the brush bar having put the belt on the spindle. Brute force to stretch the belt was the only way I managed it, but it worked. The instructions say you should put the belt on the brush bar first and stretch the belt over the spindle with your thumb. My thumb and hand was not strong enough and I think most of us would have the same problem.

This is what he said, "I really don't know, I just bought the belt that corresponded with the model number, it worked great." Don't know that this is helpful, but I hope it is... Good luck!

I recommend you contact the seller. I've never used the belt so I hesitate to guess.

I have never had to replace a belt before. However, we have vacuum cleaner repair shops in our area. Perhaps you should check your yellow pages for a store near you and inquire. I have also seen repair parts in stores that sell vacuums like Walmart etc.

No. But I replaced belt and 2 weeks later the clutch froze up. So I've now done both. YouTube it

No, you do not have to change the clutch in order to replace the belt in a DC 14. You can carefully disassemble the clutch housing and replace the belts, it is real difficult, and once I opened the housing, discovered that the clutch assembly was worn, so I ended up having replace it.

As I recall there were instructions included. I think you can find instructions online too.
