Correct model number The correct model number is 652A. The U prefix did not exist until 1975 with the HooverJunior model U1012. | ||

Brush
Roll explaination.
Imagine your brush roll has tires. The tires spin and the belt spins. The tires are the bearings. If you have a tire with a break that sticks one tire would spin slower than the other tire. If one bearing slows it will pop off the belt. The sides of the brush roll are the bearings. If you put a finger on each side of the brush roll spin the brush roll. If it spins freely on both sides it's not the bearings. It would mean the belt is the issue. If one side of brush roll sticks it's the bearing. | ||

You said something that piqued my interest. You said the belt was making black marks on the carpet. Your 652 is the same vacuum as our model 65 Convertible. I don't understand how the belt could be making marks on the rug, when the belt guard on the soleplate is covering the belt the whole time. Would you be so kind as to turn your machine upside down and take a photo of the bottom side of the cleaner?

This is the size of the correct Hoover belt you need. I have put a standard 16.9 ounce water bottle with it for comparison. The belt you need is just a little bit bigger in circumference than the water bottle. But of course, the glitch in vacuum land has turned the picture sideways. You can still tell from the picture the size of belt you need.
