Hey Jordan: Nice machine. I have one of the Tuec 170's from 1912 in my collection. LOL same problem as yours too - the cap for the outlet on the machine is missing and so are the parts. Incidentally I am in Moose Jaw, Sk so not all that far North West of you. Doug

Hi Garry: Nope Switson never made any Electrolux's. They had their own factories. Hi Tom: Nope have never seen that one. Hi Jimmy: I have a picture of a Satelite but no idea what the model number was. Hi Brian: Sounds like one I have seen but no clue what the model was on that one either

Attachment set style 6 The "Cheap" set for the bottom of the line machines. All plastic parts. There were two variations of the floor brush. The one shown and a slightly wider one which I dont have.

Attachment set style 5 Delux attachment set featured curved wand, new style rug nozzle, old style floor brush, old style metal small nozzle and plastic dusting brush and crevice tool. Some machines like the watermatic also had the sprayer/sudser, squeegee and felt pad.

Attachment set style 4 Basically the same as style 3 but the elbow has been removed from the rug nozzle and replaced by a curved wand. The straight wands are shorter. (made using the floor brush rather difficult). Available in grey or tan with the rug nozzle matching the machine.

Style 3 was also available in tan or grey with the rug nozzle being painted to match the machines

Attachment set style 3 New style Rug Nozzle, the rest of the parts are now plastic. Some sets came with the felt pad for hardwood floors

Attachment set style 2 Same set as style 1 but a new crevice tool and dusting brush have been added. Also available in grey or tan.

Attachment set style 1 This was available in both grey and tan (some with a paint sprayer and vaporizer too)

Hey Guys. Thought I would start a new project. I'm making a list of the various machines that Switson Industries made along with the attachment sets that were used at the time so that, when a machine turns up, we know what parts should be with it. This is the list I have so far. The...

Just thought you might like to see what the original attachments were like. I made a copy of the accessory kit for a friend once. While it turned out very nicely it was a very difficult build.

While vacuum motors will run on A/C or D/C the switches in most new ones wont stand up to DC as the gap in them is too small and DC will arc across burning them out. Likewise you have to remember that to get the same power out of a motor it is an inverse correlation between voltage and...

Hey Hans What is the model number on that machine? Doug

Its a hose from an early GE / Premier upright vacuum cleaner

I had never noticed it on the name plate but, when I dug mine out it is on the 302, 303 and 87 as well but not the 91 or 94

I have never found a particular reason for it but Electrolux in England dubbed all of their lower line machines Electrux from 1947 to 1965. This included the model 116, 117, 48, 60 and 64. Maybe it was just to differentiate them from the top of the line?

LOL those aren't cord hooks. They were made to hold the power nozzle.

Hi Bill This was the Top of the Line model style (This one is actually a couple of years older than the Lower Line model above)

Hi Francois I picked up the identical machine a couple of months ago. Here's a picture of it with the proper hose and rug/floor nozzle (I didn't get the small parts with it). Arrow Electro was made by Holland Electro in Holland for the Arrow Sewing Machine Co. in Canada. This model would...
