I've checked for clogs & unless the brushroll has broken then I'm unsure really. I'll try to see if the belt is off tonight. |

Its the smaller belt that goes to the brush roll cover, known as Primary belt part number 5110. The bigger one is called Secondary belt part number 5463

Thanks sebo_fan, I was wondering which belt it was. Just found out the X4 was made in 2006 & this is it's first belt change. |

Well who the hell vacuums up glass, coins, marbles and bolts?!?! I have had the same belt on my Hoover Turbopower 1 U2194 since I got it in early 2012 when I cleaned it up, I had that cleaner out the other day and the brushroll is still turning fine!
I got a new in box Hoover Purepower manufactured in 1999, the belt still turns the brushroll fine, it could benefit from a new belt but it turns the brushroll perfectly adequately. |

And?
Alex I do wish you'd stop being so anti-SEBO. This thread was started by HI/LO who wanted to know if anyone could diagnose the problem for his SEBO X4. "...I got a new in box Hoover Purepower manufactured in 1999, the belt still turns the brushroll fine..." Yes. No wonder the original is intact. It clearly hasn't been used on a daily basis since it is "still in a box" I've had the same belt on my X4 for 10 years since it was bought brand new in 2004. The model is now with my neighbour down the road. She's still on the same belts. And for your information, due to her poor eyesight and being a new Grandma, the odd marble and odd piece of lego often gets sucked up the SEBO. Her husband adores the upright because it can clean the carpet in his workshop which often has loose screws, wood shavings and stuff I wouldn't dream of driving a non-commercially based upright vacuum through. |

Agree with Nar on this one, my friend's folks have had an X1 in daily use since 1998 and it's never had or needed a new belt. Infact, it's had a complete brushroll replacement and still doesn't need a new belt.
The 2 belt system in the Sebo is not dissimilar to the 2 belts on the Hoover Turbomaster. |

Not much difference really compared to having to undo a few screws on the bottom of a base soleplate of most uprights to gain access to the belt.
Only one that has ever been easy to remove in my experience and it has been the old LG bagged uprights - had a simple slider that unlocked the sole plate from the machine for access to the belt. |

I've seen the Espares video and it looks quite straight forward and you probably wont have to change the belts for around 10yrs so it's not a problem. Working on vacuum cleaners is FUN! :) |
