Today I was using my Royal 501 hand vac when all of a sudden I started to hear squeaking and something rattling around. At first I thought it was the motor but it turns out it was the brushroll. I oiled the bearing that was causing the trouble, but it is still incredibly unbalanced and still makes a lot of noise. Does anyone know where I could get a new brushroll or a bearing? I would prefer not to get a new brushroll because it is still good and the bristles are barely worn down, it is just the bearing that is the issue.

Christian,
Just so you know, the Dirt Devil 503, 103, 500, 523, 533 and similar hand vacuums used the exact same brush roll (2-050221-000) as the 501, so you may find a few good examples on eBay. Here is one: https://www.ebay.com/itm/374175613927... ~Ben |
