We use Hibon Vacuum pumps, put your Dyson to shame http://www.arsrecycling.com/recyclingmachines.htmToo bad they are not used for vacuuming household floors.

F4iBunny Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Wow! You all know a lot about vacuums for a bunch of guys! I thought I'd get advice on fixing them, not how well they clean! Anyway, the roller isn't turning consistently, if at all at times, thus not picking stuff up from the carpet. I have a black lab and used to have a light colored carpet until this happened.I've cleaned the roller, cleaned bits of nasty shit from inside. The bit on the other end of the belt that extends from the motor is shiny metal so I can't see if it's turning. Just can't tell why the belt isn't turning the roller. Bret took the roller out and one of the bearings on one end was tighter than the other and he cleaned that up but it still isn't working properly.Thinking about getting a new one, but just wondered if anyone could help me out on this before I do.

Chrisoh Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Does the pickup roller turn by hand or is it to tight to turn by hand? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
F4iBunny Posted January 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Does the pickup roller turn by hand or is it to tight to turn by hand?It's pretty easy to turn. When the vacuum is on the roller will turn real fast (normal) a couple times, then slow down then fast then slow etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chrisoh Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 That sounds like the motor is failing on the device then. Does suction remain constant? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
