How to Change the Belt on the Eureka Boss 450 Model

The Eureka Boss vacuum cleaner is an upright vacuum that offers a turbo nozzle, height adjustment, HEPA filter, bottom-empty dirt cup, suction control switch and a long power cord and wide cleaning path. Sold online and in select department or appliance stores, the Boss vacuum should operate well under most circumstances. However, if the vacuum belt breaks or is damaged, it is necessary to replace the belt before the vacuum can be used. Replacement belts are available through the Eureka Company.
