Hello guys.

This machine is an Aquarius WDL540

about 14 years old. I suspect worn bearings and would like to know if such spares are available for this model. I am a Vehicle Engineer so it would be good if parts are available.

Many thanks for your valued advice.

Check on Ransom Spares but to be honest at 14 years old it’s probably not worth it.

It seems most have sealed drums now. Not sure who still doesn’t any more as those that haven’t often suddenly start or have had some models with and some without. Once someone starts something like this they all tend to follow suit because it’s a race to the bottom.

Only Miele definitely don’t have sealed drums though the bearings are quite unlikely to go anyway.

Yes, cost of spares over new, apart from my time may not be worth it.

I have done W/Machine bearings in the past.

Apart from me searching to find out, would you know of any reliable model which would allow me to repair/replace bearings after guarantee eventually runs out ?.

Thank you.
