Opposite Problem I have a Kenmore Progressive in Garnet Red 27914 and the power nozzle runs when the machine in turned off. You have to unplug the machine from the wall to turn off the power nozzle. If the plug is in the wall the power nozzle is on with the machine on and off.

Yes they are on Ebay I need to go look but have seen the power nozzles from new2youvacuums or some name very similar to that.

I have a Hoover Dimension 1000 in wonderful shape but the Quadraflex Powernozzle has a crack in the base. Does anyone have or know where to find the part?? Please help.

Outter bag size My Green Hoover does have a beige outter bag large enought to hold the F & G Bag. In fact the F & G is not even as tall as the outter bag. I can't wait to post a pic to get some input from the Hoover Experts. I assume this machine minus the hardware store plug is all Hoover.

I picked up a nice Avocado Green and Tan Hoover Convertible this last Friday for $12.00 at Salvation Army. It was tagged $20 but it was 40% of day. I think it is a model 584 but I am work and the machine is at home so I will have to check tonight and post a picture. When checking it out I...

Craftsman and Kenmore Sears did not steal anything they contract everything out to a major company. Sears doesn't produce anything on their own. Wards did the same thing. My Wards Power Team II is a Eureka. I have Kenmore Canister made my Panasonic, Kenmore washer and dryer which I belive are...

Hoses Check Ebay too, I have found a nice hose that comes in Grey and Cream that is a generic hose made to look like a genuine hose. It has a switch to turn the power nozzle on and off too. I have a near Mint Silverado Deluxe I bought about a year ago and it still had the fabric hose and I use...

Air Freshner Tablets Sears has a pack of Tablets that fits the Concept Air Freshner. I think the Oreck Tablets will work too.

Bag Washing What type of bag stinks? I am getting ready to wash some fabric Kirby Bags with Woolite and little fabric softner. There is a thread about it I will see if I can dig it up. The woolite is easy on the bag and the fabric softner helps the fibers stay soft and apart for better filtering.

Got a Pic I have a Wards Power II from that Era that needs a Powernozzle Motor and I have seen them on EBay as well as the Brushroll. I will put up a pic of mine later when I get home. I also found two mint condition Wards brand packs of bags un opened at a local thrift store. It belonged to my...

Where are all those vac Where are those vacs? Is it where a Kirby Company stores or discards the trades or what? Wow what a find can you just help yourself?

Bulb and Book Brandon I just bought a replacement bulb for my Classic and Dual 50 at the Hardware store today. Two bulbs and CA tax was $4.26 out the door. I have a 518 or 519 book which I am not willing to part with but can scan or copy for you.

Bag and Cord Brandon if you love using that machine and don't want to mess up the original bag and cord I would suggest picking up a replacement cord to use and keep put the other one aside to preserve it. Also you can pick up the sani-emptors on ebay and install a Kirby replacment bag on it...

Hoses Maybe this was an estate find and over the years there had been more than one lux in the house so it was assumed everything went with this machine. Not everyone is a vacuum expert like us at the club.

Pic1 oops lets me try again.

I have a Hoover Dimension 1000 with a crack in the base of the powernozzle. Does anyone have any repair suggestion or parts for it. I will posting a pic after I get home.

A Bags and Home Care I think that Hoover offers the Allegern bags and the green bags in Style A. I have a Windtunnel that uses Type Y Allergen Bags of cloth Hepa bags. The paper allergen ones are white and I have seen both Type A in Allergen (White) and green. HomeCare I think contracts out...

I have seen some threads about Hoover bags and HandiSacs. I bought some Hoover Style J Bags for my Portable Machines wanting to get "Genuine" bags. When I got home and opened the package up I found it to be the exact same bag that is made by DVC. I went to Hoover’s website and started looking at...

Bissel Tips I have had good luck with not using loads of formula. I have even taken spot stains out with my spot bot using only hot water. I use the Normal or sometimes Heavy setting on dirty spots for the first pass or two. Even removed dog pee smell from a room the dog kept wanting to mark...
