Product details
Nozzle height adjustment lever for the Hoover U5433 WindTunnel upright, part 440012397. The lever is what sets how low the cleaning head rides, from bare floor up through deep pile.
These break at the detent or shear off at the shaft, and the failure leaves the head stuck wherever it happened to be. Stuck low, the machine bogs down on carpet and the brushroll scuffs a hard floor. Stuck high, it glides over the pile without ever touching it, and you are pushing a vacuum that only lifts what was already loose on the surface.
A new lever brings back positive, repeatable height changes. Look over the mounting clips while it is off, since the same knock that broke the lever has often cracked one of those too.
