How can I replace the fan impeller on my Kirby Generation 3 vacuum cleaner?

My Kirby Generation 3 is making a load sound, and I think it's the fan impeller. How do I repair the problem if it is that part?

basiclly you need to remove the motor (complete strip down), to remove the fan, you put a 10mm spanner at the back of the motor in front of the cog and bearing, then put a small screwdriver into the small hole on the belt spindle and undo it, then remove fan
