ill 2nd nathan on this one. out of all the powerheads i own electrolux (especially the consolidated foods owned models like the 1205/ golden j) had sleeve bearings that werent very honed from the factory and require frequent oiling to keep running at normal speed.
there is two sleeve bearings in the pn motor (one at each end) and one at each end of the brush roll. oil these with 0/20 weight oil every 6 months and youll be fine. longer than that and the bearings friction with the armature shaft in the pn motor and brushroll shafts will get hot and bind. ive never seen the sieze due to lack of oiling, but they will ger increidbly hot, melt belts and slow the whole thing down. |
