Checking mine..
did you remove the little metal door at the end of the brush roll? I took mine apart a couple of years ago & do recall the final attachment point being somewhat difficult. Worth it as mine was chock full o' crap in the brush roll motor area. Remove the wheels, the carpet height dial etc. & it should be fairly clear.
Also, you do realize the whole brush roll/ brush roll motor assembly easily detach from the upper vacuum body (& vacuum motor)? | ||

Wow, very dirty vac you've got there! Good luck with the restore. It'll look great when it's cleaned up. I have one of those. Very solid machine! Quiet, too. | ||

Great machines The Versamatics (and their Sebo counterparts) are wonderful machines. One small thing to keep in mind is that the hose needs to be VERY firmly in place at the bottom to engage the microswitch that turns on the brush motor. | ||
