Singer (and then Bissell) made a version of that vacuum for decades. The brush roller from machines 20 years newer will fit. Normally a brush roller will come with new end caps in the box. eBay would probably be a great place to start a search. Interestingly, we can still get brand new belts that actually fit your model.

Thank you very much! I am looking forward to seeing how it preforms. I doubt I will use it on my higher pile carpet, but I can use it on the lower pile are rugs here, and the lower pile carpet at my other house. |

Seeing this Singer upright reminds me how important some of Singer’s contributions were to the early development of the upright vacuum cleaner. They were the first to reposition the motor sideways which opened up a whole new world of design possibilities, including Hoover’s bypass system for their innovative Dial-a-Matic vac.
Having two fans seemed to be a great idea on paper, but I don’t think these dual fan Singers ever were able to outperform standard Hoover and Eureka uprights in the 1960’s and 1970’s. |
