I'm on a family visit and picked up a nice Kirby 510. I was going to ship it home and buff it up but figured I would see if someone here was interested and I could ship it out from here.(save shipping twice) I took it completely apart, greased the bearings hand washed the bag. new parts are...

I just bought a kirby 512. it has what looks like an origional 6 blade fan. motor brushes warn but i have new ones:) I can not get the front bearing off yet. i ahve a new front bearing but it looks as though the front bearing is riveted in to the front plate? is this right? is it possible then...

Isn't this nearly impossible to find? http://detroit.craigslist.org/mcb/hsh/3336838274.html I hope one of you can get this:)

Hi there Found a curb side hoover u7047. I took it completely apart. Greased the lower motor bearing, greased the agitator bearings and i need to order a belt.. its pretty beat up with scratched but the plastic is only scratched and not cracked. the bag cleaned up well though the logo came off...

you know, I should have taken pictures. the armature and all inside parts look brand new. the commutator contact area was tarnished. the after looked like a bright shiny penny. the copper couldn't get any more shiny. took maybe 5 mins with the chrome polish. It was very easy.

I checked the wiring and all was tight I took the armature out and took chrome polish to the commutator. shined it up, put it all back together and now it runs perfectly. Thank you so much for the advise. now for the 2nd d80 with the frozen bearing plate screws!

Anybody have a good idea how to remove frozen bearing plate screws? I don't want to strip the heads. Anybody have experience with them?

great reply thank you. I'll look for some commutator chalk and go from there. I'll also take some pictures while I'm at it. The parts very unused. I'm out of town for a week and will follow up! thank you so much for your input! Joe

Hi there I have a kirby d80 I just purchased. It has extremely little use( still has belt lifter stickers). I greased the bearings and put it all back together. It appears to run warmer than my other d80 and slightly slower. my normal d80 has new style bearings and runs cool or at least cooler...

glad you guys chimed in:) I didn't think blue was original. sure would have been nice. i kind of like it

Is this right? a blue d50? never knew they where blue. thought they where only brown http://www.ebay.com/itm/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=220955417024&ssPageName=ADME:B:WNAFP:US:1123
