A tool (1, Fig 1) for a surface treating appliance, such as a vacuum cleaner, includes a housing 3 having a suction opening 4. An agitator, such as a brush bar 13, is rotatably located in the suction opening of the housing. The interior of such a tool can get blocked due to large objects being drawn in through the suction opening, or else by threads and fibres becoming tangled in the brush bar. In accordance with the invention, the brush bar 13 is removable through the suction opening 4 for replacement or repair. A portion (23, Fig 3) of the housing may also be removable to clear the way for the user to access a narrow opening (22, Fig 3) in the neck of the tool which may be prone to blockage. |
