I got the belt from http://shop.polybelt.com/ It is item B148-2M-04BNG . You have to buy 3 to get to $9.99 and then they tack on another $10 for shipping, but this was the only place I could find them. Replaced it and it seems to be working ok.

The brush stops tolling after a few seconds. How do I trouble shoot this?

Same happens to me. I took it all apart; there was not much hair in the mechanisms at all, and the belt is not broken so I don’t see the need to replace it. I am at a loss as to what I should do next.
