They usually do make a LITTLE more noise when the brushroll is connected than when it isn't, but not that much. It's possible you might be having some front bearing problems that are only noticeable when the tension of the belt is pulling on the shaft. To check the bearing, remove the belt and give the shaft a spin by hand. It should turn freely. If it seems overly tight, That's one indication of bearing trouble. Also, check with your fingers to see if it wiggles up and down or side to side. If it does, that's another indication of bearing trouble. Hope this helps. Jeff |

I'm thinking the belt might be slipping. Raise the nozzle up off the floor and see if that makes the squealing go away. |
