Thanks Thanks Paul, Unfortunately, I don't know how to look it up by thread #. When I put it in it only showed this thread. I'll keep looking thanks again. Side note: I can't find anything about it on you tube ether. All they show is how to replace brush rolls or replacing brush roll strips...

Hi Jay, Barry has the right idea with hand washing you should try and stay away from machine washing the outer bags. Jim

Bag Clayton, I bought the bag on eBay a few years ago. Unfortunately, they are no longer being made. Since then, I have replaced it with an original 514 bag. I also found that on eBay. Jim

Facebook I left FB due to the censorship on the website. When I restored my Kirby 4C I tried to post about it, and I started my post by saying "Ladies and gentlemen. boys and girls introducing my Kirby 4C" FB would not let me post it using that comment. When I changed it to simply saying...
