The LS50 brush motor (part number 051570081) is the R74/45 brush motor that drives the brushroll in your Lindhaus LS50 Electric. Rated at 240V/50Hz and 300W, it is the motor that spins the agitator so the brush can dig dirt and pet hair out of carpet.
About the LS50 brush motor
This is a genuine R74/45 motor built specifically to power the LS50’s brushroll. The LS50 brush motor is a 240-volt, 50-hertz, 300-watt unit, and those ratings are part of the motor’s own designation, so a genuine replacement matches the machine’s original agitation power.

Signs the brush motor is failing: the brushroll will not spin or turns weakly, the agitator stops under load on carpet even though suction is fine, you smell a burning odor from the head, the motor makes unusual grinding or humming noises, or a breaker or thermal cut-out trips when the brush engages. Because this motor is separate from the suction motor, the vacuum may still pull air while the brush sits dead.
Replacing the brush motor is an internal repair that involves accessing the cleaning head and the motor’s wiring. If you are not comfortable with that, our service technicians can handle the swap and confirm the brushroll spins freely afterward. Before condemning the motor, it is always worth ruling out a jammed brushroll, a broken belt or debris wound around the agitator, since those can mimic a failed motor. When the motor itself is the culprit, a genuine R74/45 restores full brush action. Look for related brushroll and belt parts in our Lindhaus LS50 parts.
