    New Oreck Bagless

    I could never get over the sound. That thing is a screamer! I wonder what kind of belt it has for the roller brush.

    Envirotect Conet, what is this thing? Looks cool

    Geared Power-Nozzle compatibility I wonder if that geared brush-roll could be modded to fit into a Filter Queen 48 Power-nozzle or if components of it could be used to upgrade a FQ 88 Power-nozzle so they could have a stiff bristle brush-roll and geared belt drive?

I used a long socket that fit precisely on the inner race(the inner circle that contacts the armature shaft). be gentle with the fans when you are putting it together. When I do FQ motor repairs I have a rule,(maybe a little OCD) I check the fans three...
