Hoover Bottom Plate Retaine...
$6.99
Product details
Part 034439 is the bottom plate retainer spring for the Hoover Model 65 and the Hoover 1030, holding the bottom plate shut against the nozzle housing.
Once this spring weakens or breaks, the bottom plate stops staying shut on its own, leaving the brush roll uncovered and letting air leak past the point where the nozzle is meant to seal against the floor. A plate that will not latch gets blamed on the nozzle itself more often than not, when the small spring behind it is the actual, far cheaper cause. Putting in a fresh one brings the tension back so the plate clicks shut and stays there.
- Fits: Hoover Model 65, Hoover 1030
- Function: pulls the bottom plate shut and keeps it latched
- Symptom it fixes: a bottom plate that pops open or feels loose
- Tip: take a look at the belt while the plate is open, since it is already exposed
Hooking the new spring onto its mount is a job for basic hand tools and a few spare minutes, nothing more involved than that. Check the data plate against 65 or 1030 before buying, and keep the old spring in hand for comparison if you are ever unsure whether the replacement matches on arrival.
