If you think the bearings sound bad, replace them or repack them, if it still sounds bad after that, then it's the carbon brushes/commutator or the brushroll... :) |

You CANNOT use WD-40 which is a water displacement product. Replace the bad bearings, or have someone QUALIFIED do the work as to avoid damage. |
