Dyson DC14 models come in two variants; with and without a clutch. For those without a clutch, a single drive belt connects the motor directly to the brush so the brush rotates continuously whenever the motor is on.
This guide is for replacing the drive belts on Dyson DC03, DC04, DC07 and DC14 models equipped with a drive belt clutch. It requires removing the clutch from the vacuum and disassembling it to remove the drive belts.
