I received an essentially NOS 2002 Lindhaus Diamante yesterday and the brush roller or belt seems to be making an odd noise. I do not have any dealers nearby, thus I’m going to this knowledge base. Does anyone know what the problem could be? I did put some triflow on the right bearing. I’ve...

My Deluxe upright has a date sticker on the inside of the bag door.

My 880 was made in April of 1986. I guess my model is technically the 81st anniversary model.

Wow, there’s definitely some great finds! That Transit connect certainly holds a lot!

I read from a Sebo dealer that the X7 plate with the holes will fit. I’ve ordered the X7 plate and I’ll report back when I install it.

I’m not sure if it would make it easier to push, but the X7 has holes in their front metal plate. I wonder if the X7 plate would fit the X4, it might be enough to release the suctioning down to my carpets.

I found someone online complaining about the same issue on a Windsor, it’s my carpets.

I start vacuuming on a low pile carpet, then I go to a slightly higher pile carpet and the head lowers. It almost feels like pushing a Kirby heritage or G series without tech drive engaged. From videos I’ve watched, there’s very few things that could be the issue. I find it really odd that if I...

Thank you for the suggestions! I found the 3 in 1 easily on Amazon. I’ve never looked at the way the contacts line up with the bulb, that could be my problem. I actually rub petroleum jelly on my zippers, I found that silicone lubricant did not work as well, and I’ve never tried WD-40 on the...

I haven’t used mine since early November. It has a new cone, so it’s ready for some cleaning! I do need to change the belt, I’ve found the genuine FQ belts to be far better than the generic ones. I would probably use it more if I had it on one of the two main floors. I do have the original...

I also love the blue cord, I do want to get a Windsor with the blue cord. I bought the blue hand vac NOS from an antique store on eBay, and I’ve used it a few times. I’ve been trying to hoard bags for the Royal handheld. I also had the Dirt Devil Ultra hand vac, I remember how loud it was. I’ll...

I will say that even from the day I opened my X4, it seemed to be tuned more aggressively. I never got the feeling that it was skimming the carpet other than a brand new brush roller. I did test I a bit ago without the sealing strip, and it was a bit easier to push. I find that with a brush...

Further update. The new brush roll has now worn in slightly and the X4 is just as difficult to push as before. When I had the X4 at the dealer to be looked at, the dealer did not think it felt abnormal in use. I’m assuming that this is just how the X series are after some use on a new brush...

The Royal products

I’ve had this Royal 880 for about 13 years. What light bulb is anyone using in this? I currently have a 15w in that does not work. Secondly, what oil is anyone putting in the oil port? Lastly, is there anything I can apply to the bag to help preserve it? I’ve decided to dust off my Royal this...

I hated canisters for a long time, but you really have to give up on the mindset of cleaning out of the rooms. I always clean into rooms with my canisters, that way I don’t have to mess with the main unit and cord too much. I prefer a light weight feel in my hand, and a canister automatically...

I generally don’t go by how bags I have, as I tend to be a bag hoarder. I did forget to mention the choice between canister and upright. I will generally choose an upright if I want to clean quickly, or simply want to use a particular upright. If I could only have one machine, it would be a...

That’s why I’m not a salesman, I could never sale products that I wouldn’t want to own. I’m not surprised that the consumers are preferring the cordless and bagless models. It’s really unfortunate that the consumers are buying these cordless machines that cost the same as a quality vacuum.

He came in with a massive bag and immediately put gloves on haha! I have a photo, I have to do some digging to get it!
