“I love the vacuum, how do I shut off the brushes from spinning to use on the hardwood floor? I switched from hardwood when the brushes weren’t spinning, to carpet pushing the appropriate spot, now I want to switch back onto hardwood and shut them off.”

It is a horrible design choice to not have an OFF setting for the rolling brushes. A roller that can not be turned off will damage a handmade carpet.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.We have a shark lift. The brushes won’t turn off for hardwood floors
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The 1st (low) setting is hardwood/bare, 2nd (middle) is carpet and 3rd (top)area/shag thick carpet. On settings 2 & 3 both rollers move at a faster pace but settings 2 has more suction than 3. On the 1st setting both rollers move but at a slow pace. You can not completely stop one or the other while vacuuming.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Hello Jill, The brushrolls on the Shark® DuoClean® Powered Lift-Away Speed™ (NV801) Bagless Upright Vacuum do not stop spinning when the handle is leaned back and the vacuum is powered on. When you put the vacuum in an upright locked position, the brushrolls will stop spinning. If this is not happening, we ask that you reach out to Shark® Customer Care at 877-581-7375. Representatives are available Mon.-Fri. 9am - 9pm ET | Sat. 9am - 6pm ET. We hope this information helps. The Customer Support Team
