The spring loads the idler lever against the drive belt, and that constant pressure is what keeps the belt gripping the motor shaft and turning the brushroll as the machine moves over carpet.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eComponent:\u003c\/strong\u003e idler arm tension spring\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlatform:\u003c\/strong\u003e PV chassis uprights\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBrands:\u003c\/strong\u003e Riccar and Simplicity\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eSold:\u003c\/strong\u003e individually\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eA spring that has stretched or lost temper stops holding the belt tight. The usual signs are belt squeal on startup, a brushroll that stalls when it meets thick pile, and belts that glaze or burn far sooner than they should. Fitting a new belt to a tired spring only masks the problem for a few weeks, so replace both together when a machine keeps eating belts. The idler arm cover is available separately if it was damaged during the teardown.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Simplicity","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50085725798650,"sku":"B375-0300B","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0684\/3934\/3354\/files\/6b04cb7d65e72305ae2368069caa9c99.jpg?v=1787004683","url":"https:\/\/evacuumsandmore.com\/products\/riccar-simplicity-pv-upright-idler-arm-spring","provider":"Vacuums and More","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
