Need help with a kirby 513 brushroll

[jj2233]

Whenever i try to run my 513 with the brushroll on its quiet for the first 2 minutes then a loud buzzing/rattle comes from the brushroller. It has a fresh belt installed.

Sounds like it's either the brushroll bearings are shot, or there's something caught in the fan area that's making the noise.

Check the brush roll itself first. Then check the motor fan for any broken fins.
