This motor has been mentioned a few times in recent topics, so I thought I'd create this thread for it specifically... The "3D Inducer Motor" technically is a single-stage Panasonic motor. However, it sports a redesigned intake and fan which helps to reduce air turbulence by creating a smooth...

With his ever increasingly bold tactics, this cry baby article doesn't really surprise me at all.  I found his shots at the Germans to be an obvious touch...   I believe Dyson whines because he does not want to be obstructed by any rules, no matter how insignificant or otherwise. He's used...

Bags are $19.99 for the four pack, including the standard filters. A "Value Pack" for $35.00 is available that contains two of the above packages (eight bags plus filters total), as well as a Miele shopping bag. The above applies to both GN and FJM in Canada. Sebo bags for the D series are...

A straight air version of the S8 will be launched in Canada shortly. It will retail similar to the Alize. Something to keep in mind is that with both Sebo and Miele, warranty is only valid within the country it was purchased.

There is a picture of the new motor in Numatic's 2014 ISSA Interclean brochure, which is accessible from www.numatic.co.uk home page. It's a two-stage motor that to me appears to be sourced from Ametek Italia.

Here's what he uses to back up that claim... "Suction tested against upright market to ASTM F558 <span style="text-decoration: underline;">at the cleaner head</span>, dust- loaded as per IEC 60312-1. Graph reflects DC65 compared to top-performing product for each brand (Shark Navigator Lift...

Centaur manufactures extremely rugged, heavy duty machines. It's difficult to find a commercial machine today that is better constructed than a Centaur. Now that I see it being sold as a residential machine, it should survive well under abusive conditions... The only negative I see with the...

The machine in the picture is a rebadged Centaur SL-3 canister equipped with a Plastiflex direct connect hose setup along with a Wessel Werk EBK 340. As Eric mentioned, the other "Sterilaire" machines appear to be rebadged Numatic machines. As for Centaur, they're a commercial vacuum and floor...

Last week, I ordered some extra accessories for my Majestic from All Brands Vacuum Doctor on Amazon. No problems whatsoever. Good selection and reasonable prices, too! http://www.amazon.com/s/ref=sr_in_-2_p_4_7?me=A32I8KBX769MA3&rh=p_4%3AFilter+Queen&ie=UTF8&qid=1394067727

Nacecare imports Numatic machines into North America. The commercial and industrial lines are distributed by Nacecare directly, where they're predominantly sold to janitorial supply companies. The "Homecare" line is distributed by Tip Top Parts who sells them to independant vacuum stores.  ...

The hose issues that occurred with the Silver Moon, Red Velvet and Blue Moon were resolved in subsequent models. Those models being S5980/81 and S8990 (UniQ).

Just some slight input on the Miele discussion that's developed... To summarize "Miele" with an S2 series machine is a little skewed. A Miele S2 is a machine that's built to a price, not a standard. As such, it has a ridiculously short cord and short hose, a smaller, less powerful 1200w...

Dose anyone know how or what to use to wash the filter... When I acquire a used Numatic for my collection, I wash its filter (without the black circular filter support) in my Miele front loader using the delicate setting on cold, along with one tablespoon of Persil.   Once the cycle is...

If it's running constantly while the manual switch is in the off (0) position, the relay is faulty.

<div>@super-sweeper: The owner mentioned they tried the manual switch and it did not work. This switch is not in the on position in normal use. </div> <div> <hr /> </div> <div>The issue is likely either with the motor or the relay, r_u_live. </div> <div>Try taking out those two spade connectors...

What's the model of your central vacuum, r_u_live?

Are you positive that the vacuum in your garage (not just the powerhead) is turning on when you move the switch to carpet? If so, it is likely an issue with the switch in the hose. If the hose is made by Plastiflex, you'll replace the whole wiring harness. If the vacuum is not turning on in...

"Harry" is being distributed via Tip Top Parts in three configurations. First is the standard Numatic setup with Hairobrush and charcoal filter (same as Europe). The second setup is the same as the first, but is "North Americanized" by Tip Top to include a Plastiflex electric hose, telescopic...

The Fakir S-312 (as well as the S-314) were most commonly found in North America as the Clarke Combivac. Once Nilfisk Advance purchased Alto, the Fakir uprights branded for Clarke were discontinued in favour of Nilfisk's in-house designed and manufactured machine.   The older Fakir uprights...
