This version at the price it is asking for is most likely brushed. You can start there and if you want more speed/power traxas makes a conversion mount for a brushless motor. All that to say the brushless motor version of this usually starts in the 700$ range if not more.

Yes. Just pull it off. It should be removed periodically to clean between the brush head and the power unit. Replacement brush heads can be purchased.

Why do people (like the ones below) bother to answer when they don't even understand the question?Anywho, while Ventech doesn't specifically say so on their website I'm fairly positive this is a brushed motor. The reason why is because they also sell a variable speed controller to be used with the fans and it states "This router speed controller works with any universal AC/DC brush-type motor". Since they don't sell any other speed controllers, and due to the price of the fan, I doubt it's brushless.

Yes it comes with the motorized power brush. I like this machine. It has great suction and works great. I bought this to replace my oxygen3 model. This one is lighter and easier to use.

Yes, I use it with mine. But I'm pretty sure I'm using the nut and domed washer that came with the brush blade, so you might have to improvise a fastener if you don't have those.

The extension hose is not really suited for use between the motor and the wand. It does not contain an electrical connection to convey the electrical power needed to drive the small motor located next to the rotating brush in the wand. This means that the brush will not rotate. In fact, if I'm not mistaken, the connector on the wand will not even allow you to attach the hose. This is true of all power attachments - they will not work when the extension hose is used because they will not be able to receive any power through the hose. Instead, the hose is for use with non-powered tools, such as the duster attachment, the crevice tool, the small brush, etc. It works great for those purposes. Good luck.

The brush does rotate and appears to be powered by either belt or direct drive action. I have the older model and it also had a rotating brush. In both cases, you can operate with or without brush rotation. When you first slide the on/off switch forward you get only suction. The next " click " engages the brush. Pulling the switch " back " from the off position releases the dust cup for cleaning.

Save your money to go to brushless. It just ran a little bit better than the stock brushed motor.

Yes I ordered one a while back and its brushless. The motor is fast great and very durable.

I don't think an battery powered unit will work effectively. Check with gass gator at 1-800-210-9949. Hope so for your sake. I have cleared lots of brush.

Yes. I also have that model, and the brush has "Type: 3733" on it, near the bottom, though my previous refill, bought at a local store, says "Expert power" and "Whitening". But encouraged by Jeff42's answer, I bought this "Action Power Soft Replacement Brush Head, 2-Count", fitted it, and it works perfectly.

I'm no expert on this but from what I've been told a brushless motor has no brushes in the motor to wear. There is nothing wrong with a motor that has brushes but from what I've read brushes are less reliable in the long run and have a sensitive break in period that can ultimately be the make it or break it from the first operation of the device.

Are you referring to the rotating roller brush? If so, I don't believe so....

The BG10 is the commercial model and has a second motor to power the brush. The brush on the 86T3 is driven off the main motor. Everything else is the same. For the average homeowner, I don't think you would notice a difference.

No, it is a brush that snaps into place. It worked well for us and we have a DC 07 original bought in 2005.

No it doesn't have brushless motor. But it's a very good drill an impact driver. But if you're thinking of buying one stick with new milwaukee brushless it has a lot of power too I'm actually thinking buying the new one brushless motor that is. Good luck on your buying.I do recommend amazon it's the best no problems so far.
