bosch vacuum cleaner rattle
I have a Bosch upright vacuum.
Switchable on/off carpet beater roller. When I switch roller brush on I get a rattling noise as thought the small belt drive motor is moving around. Long shot but has anyone else had a similar problem? Dismantled and checked but nothing obviously broken. Possibly the belt maybe slack but no teeth missing. |

If no adjustment try a new one? -- Dave The Medway Handyman www.medwayhandyman.co.uk 01634 717930 07850 597257 |

Anything else will probably be chucking good money after bad. Are stretched belts common, Mr H? |
