I switched to a tighter Kirby belt and it worked. The regular Royal belt in the Model 1048 I have is not as tight a fit. This all happened when I put in a new belt and this time I used an actual belt for the Royal rather than the Kirby belt I had used before. One of you mentioned "maybe I had...

I'll recheck everything again..........I already checked everything but I have not checked if the belt is the correct one.

Changed the belt in our Royal metal upright and it now pushes VERY hard when the wife uses it. The front end seems to "push down" and grab the carpet too much when she is using the vacuum cleaner. I am at my wits end trying to figure out why it now "dives" into the carpet at the brusher end...

Thanks everyone for the info!! Ronni: I see now that the Model 1048 was made in the early 2000's. Thank you!! When I went to a few sites to see if parts are available if I ever need them I was not finding that model listed in their listings.......I'll have to try harder and look more...

Thank you but I can't find anything about Model 1048..........it isn't shown anywhere I have looked to buy parts, etc., should I ever need any.

I'm new here and joined to find out more about the Royal vacuum cleaner I purchased yesterday on ebay. The pictures show a model number of 1048 and I cannot find any listing of that model ever being produced. It was an anniversary version purported to be built in 2000. Does anyone know...
