Repairing the vacuum cleaner "Samsung" with your own hands. Causes of malfunctions and their removal

Man very quickly gets used to good, so someone who has ever tried to use a vacuum cleaner, hardly wants to take up again a broom. However, like any technique, vacuum cleaners tend to break down at the most inopportune moment. Not every hostess is able to single-handedly repair the malfunction of the vacuum cleaner Samsung, LG, Phillips or other brands. Nevertheless, there are breakages, which can be eliminated and independently, without recourse to specialists.

Diagnostics

Before you take on the repair of the vacuum cleaner "Samsung" with your own hands, you need to try to determine what was broken there. Correct diagnosis is very important, because the speed and cost of repair directly depends on it. The design of the vacuum cleaner is quite simple, therefore, before you pay money to the master, you can try to repair the malfunction yourself.

It should be noted that the failure is not always associated with a malfunction of the engine. Such a malfunction can be determined by the sound of the running unit. If the vacuum cleaner is buzzing, whistling, making intermittent sounds and throwing out dust, you are probably not lucky - the engine is "covered". But it happens, for example, that the vacuum cleaner seems to be working, but garbage pulls badly - then, most likely, the hose or filters are to blame. Let's take a closer look at some typical faults of this very useful home helper.

Weakly "pulls"

As we have already found out, if the vacuum cleaner does not draw in the dust, then, most likely, you will have to repair the vacuum cleaner hose ("Samsung" in you, or products of a different brand - it is not important). First of all, make sure that nothing gets stuck in it - foreign objects trapped in the hose greatly reduce the draft. Simply put, look into the hose and remove the blockage.

If you are sure that the hose is not blocked, carefully inspect it and check the integrity of the corrugation. Very often mistresses laziness bend down to rearrange the unit from place to place, and they simply drag it behind them around the room "by the tail." From this, between the coils of the corrugation, ruptures occur, as a result of which the thrust is reduced. If you find a gap, take the tape and tightly wrap the gap in several layers. For a long time such a repair, of course, is not enough, and eventually the hose will still have to be replaced, but it will serve you for a while.

If the hose is in order, check all filters and garbage bag - they may have become very dirty. Thoroughly clean the filters, and replace the bag with new ones. Also do not forget to check the position of the power regulator - it may be lost. Return it to the desired position.

The vacuum cleaner does not collect small debris

In this case, repairing the vacuum cleaner "Samsung" with their own hands will consist in a thorough examination of the brush. Make sure that its position is low enough to contact the floor - if it is not, pull it out until it stops. Examine the brush itself - it is likely that its fibers have worn too much, and they will have to be replaced.

Turn on the vacuum cleaner and inspect the brush in working condition - if it does not spin or rotate weakly, you will have to work hard. In the first case, probably, the bearings stuck. Disassemble it and check if the threads or hair are twisted to the end of the thread, remove them. In the second case, it is possible to loosen the brush belt - disassemble it and change the part to fit your model. Please note: although spare parts for Samsung vacuum cleaners are very often interchangeable for different modifications, it is best to choose the ones suitable for your model.

The unit does not turn on at all

If you turned on the unit in the outlet, and nothing happens, then repair the vacuum cleaner "Samsung" (with your own hands, of course) you need to start with a thorough inspection of the electrical part of the device. First, make sure that the socket itself is working - for this, include in it another, obviously serviceable device. If everything is in order - inspect the cord of the vacuum cleaner, look for abrasions, cracks, kinks or other damage. Disassemble the plug and carefully inspect the connection points with the cord. With the help of a control or an electric tester, "ring" the wire - it probably burned out.

If all the above actions did not result in the result, then the brush or the engine burnt out. This part of the repair already belongs to the category of more complex.

During work smell is felt

The cause of such a breakage may be a hose (for Samsung this is an ordinary case): sometimes dirt and garbage gets stuck between the windings of the corrugation, which eventually starts to emit an unpleasant smell. Rinse the hose thoroughly with a stream of water, preferably under pressure and using a detergent. After this, be sure to thoroughly dry the corrugation before you start using it again.

Another source of an unpleasant smell can be a belt. Check its tension, if necessary, tighten or replace with a new one. The smell of burnt rubber will disappear.

Vacuum cleaner vibrates and noisy

It happens that with normal, it would seem, the work hears a loud noise and the beating of the unit is observed. In this case, the repair of the vacuum cleaner "Samsung" (with their own hands, it is not always possible to manage, but it's worth trying) will be as follows:

1. If you have a vertical model of a vacuum cleaner, then, most likely, a damaged fan rattles - look at it. Replace and balance the fan yourself - the task is not easy, it is best to entrust it to a specialist.
2. If the washing vacuum cleaner - inspect the pump, which pumps water into the hose. The repair recommendation is the same - to a specialist.
3. In most of the models of vacuum cleaners, the reason for the rattling is the "broken" bearings on the brush. If you are confident in your abilities, you can try to replace them yourself. Take the roller and carefully unscrew the end cap, remove the metal shaft from it. Hold it with pliers, unscrew the next end piece, then replace the bearings, anthers and gaskets. Again, put everything in its place.
   

We disassemble the vacuum cleaner

Now we have come to the most important and complex breakdown - the repair of the Samsung vacuum cleaner. To make sure of this, you need to disassemble the vacuum cleaner. Carefully remove all protective housing parts and find the engine itself. Now, very carefully, taking all precautions, turn on the vacuum cleaner. If the cause of the breakdown is in the motor, then most likely you will see a sheaf of sparks coming from the engine. There are several reasons for this:

• Wear of brushes;
• Interturn closure in the winding;
• Increased load on the "engine".

So, in order. To replace the graphite brushes, it is first necessary to unscrew and remove the plastic caps and remove the springs. We take out the brushes themselves and insert new ones. Next, we perform all the actions in the reverse order - we insert the springs, tighten the caps. To make the brushes work properly, they need to be rubbed. This can be done by stretching a small sandpaper between the brush and the collector. In this case, the abrasive of the sandpaper should be turned towards the brush and, as it were, a little scratching it.

If all the done manipulations did not lead to success, and the sparking of the engine at power-up continues, then the engine closed. To make an independent repair of the motor of a vacuum cleaner "Samsung" (and any other too) at home will not work, it is necessary to carry in service.

Another reason for engine failure, which you can try to eliminate at home, is bearing replacement. It is very easy to check whether it is necessary to do this. Take the engine into your hand and gently rock it by the anchor: if you notice that the shaft is wobbling from side to side, then bearing replacement can not be avoided. To do this, remove the brushes and unscrew the screws that tighten the housing. After that, remove the motor covers one after another, helping yourself with a small hammer and a screwdriver. Carry out this procedure very carefully, otherwise you risk damaging the winding. Carefully, helping yourself with tools, remove the bearings (preferably both at once) from the armature shaft. Extremely carefully, using a hammer and a tube of a suitable diameter, put new bearings in their places and assemble the engine.

One small piece of advice: Before deciding to disassemble the engine, draw a wiring diagram. Believe me, this is very useful.

Conclusion

As you can see, the repair of any household vacuum cleaner can be a very simple matter. The main thing is to remember that spare parts for Samsung vacuum cleaners or other manufacturers' equipment should be of high quality. And if you have any doubts in your abilities, it is better to entrust the repair of equipment to professionals.
