Bissell Zing 2156A Foot Brush Bristles Replacement

Introduction

The Bissell Zing 2156A has two attachments to vacuum - and one is just a hard tube. Most users will mostly use the other attachment - the "Foot brush".
But like all vacuums, this point of contact can quickly become dirty or damaged, and normally before any other part. There are almost no moving parts inside this, so it is easier to maintenance then other vacuums.

While this guide only shows a clean foot brush, by taking apart the assembly, you can more easily clean inside it.
Get stated by removing the foot brush attachment - we won't need any other part of the vacuum for this.
