Title: DC01 Baseplate Rubber Spring picture?
Post by: Priory on March 14, 2021, 12:36:05 pm
Hi
First post, stripped down a DC01, thanks to Beko 1987 for the great video.  Was careful of not breaking the plastic as it is over twenty years plus old now!

I am missing the "Rubber Spring" have seen that Beko 1987 has listed the part as:

56 - Rubber spring (often missing, quite rare to find now). Fits between the fixed part and floating part of the baseplate)

Anyone got a picture of this rare part, so that I can either purchase one or cobble something together.

Many thanks

If you look in Beko's strip down topic in this room (https://manchestervacs.co.uk/DysonForum/index.php/topic,1907.0.html), it's this.

Thank you for the photo and the link the the other photos of a strip down, very useful.  So now the hunt is on for a replacement rubber spring and some plastic base plate washers.

 ;) :thumbsup:

Good Luck! The plastic base plate washers aren't too critical, it's the rubber spring you want more.
