I use it in mine. I think it is all suction. I don't recall any brushes, Why not go to a pool store and just look at the ones they have on display.

As far as know all electric motors have brushes. If you find what you are looking for, I would be interested also.

Not sure, however this device is worthless! Return it if you can. Ours jammed all the time and brushes are weak! I dis-assembled it and return it! Sorry about the bad response but this device is simply cheap and worthless! Best of luck

No, No beater brush. I do not reccomend this vaccum cleaner as the components are very cheap and it does not perform well at all.

I don't use a speed controller for my setup, but I can tell you that this broke down on me in less than 2 months. If there's a way to check without buying anything new, just tell me and I'll respond back.

I don't think so. I believe your motor is an AC only motor which wouldn't be compatible with this speed controller designed for an AC/DC brush motor

I have model # U4160H2R4 Type 7. I just compared the photos. Works like it's brand new. You will have to disassemble the bottom of the unit for the new install and clean out before installing the new parts. You will notice that the brush has two guide plates on both sides of the brush with the words old & new. I set it to the new setting. Installed the new belt and bag , and it works great ! About 30 minutes to change the parts out. Make sure you remove the side access cover for the belt, remove the old one and clean up the motor drive spindle of old rubber before installing the new one. I hope I have been helpful. I have model # U4160H2R4 Type 7. I just compared the photos. Works like it's brand new.

Yes inside of the wheel does have the gear teeth which engages the brush gear. There are several different sizes sweepers and each has a different size wheel. Hope this helps.

No, it does not have brushes but it is the best cleaning head I have ever had. The wheels roll very good.

Yes the steering servo is, but since it comes with a brushed motor it is not, unless you upgrade to a brushless veleniom one by traxxas , worth the money!!!

You need the VXL speed control as well, a brushless motor will not run with the brushed speed control you have in your bandit.

no.. There are no moving brushes in the vacuum. The only time hair became a problem is when I used a vacuum with moving brushes. You must clean out all vacuums regularly.

Yes.... there is an on/off switch right on the handle next to the main on/off switch whichcontrols whether the brush motor is on or off.

In deed, the brushes do spin. On the handle is a switch that controls either, vacuum only or vacuum and beater brush operation. The the brushes are powered by a 120 VAC connection in the wall socket connection. The wall socket has vacuum hose and two power connectors, low voltage control circuit for the vacuum system and the 120 VAC connection for powering the beater brushes.
