Les, Do you happen to know which other handvacs use the motor that the Kirby vacuette uses? I do know Sears had one....because I need to replace mine to make my Kirby vacuette usable. thx

Kloveland wow, there it is! thank you much! holy cow thats expensive!!!

Dysonman1 Where would we find that perfect power nozzle? I looked on eBay and Amazon but didn't find it

bee-vac do you happen to have the felt pad attachment that goes on this? I have one too...possibly a little later in production than yours....has the black bag instead. I might be interested in it though

I like it! clever thinking

very creative and well done!!

Fantomfan57 Did you ever give your impression of your royal power cast after using it?

very cool that you got the attachments and hose! I"m envious!

very good/interesting point....I have done both...Like the look of it down..but if needed....I do raise it!

Les, you forgot to mention that the new universal style hepa cloth bags fit every model from Heritage II till the newest Avalir. I use them on my Legend II and Heritage II w/o a problem .

Vacuum devil How did you come to that conclusion ? From what I watched, despite several people's antidotal evidence(opinion) the washing of a hepa filter is doable .....i.e. can be done w/o sacrificing airflow or increasing air emissions. I"m glad he did all that testing to address...

kirbyrama I've used the Kirby Hepa cloth bags on multiple 'conversions' like you described and they fit perfectly. I haven't tried any of the paper micron magic bags so I can't verify the size inconsistency. I"ll check tomorrow to see if I have a used bag that came with one of my machine and...

It’s my understanding. That HEPA filters were added to get more certifications for Rexair AS purifiers AND to get around the ( justly so)criticisms about not capturing ALL materials( older ones couldn’t capture no water soluble substances ( ash, drywall dust, talcum power etc). I’ve never...

very cool well done, I might need one after I attempt to restore mine

Caligula I saw your old post where you posted the owners manual, thx for doing that, I’ve been reading it!!! Thx for your insight . I like this model, very cool I’d say. I’ve been trying like crazy to get that airway valve to move but it simply won’t . I hope someone can give me insight on...

so, I just acquired one of these old little appreciated machines ( compared to many other classic brands/models) and am quite hoping that I can actually use it on my hard-floors. I have taken it apart to clean and inspect it ....steel wool polishing etc but realized the 'glass' turnable "Dust...

i like it Glad to see these restorative efforts on Royal uprights....I"m a big fan of these!!!

very clever ideas you offered Les!!!

I"m not a big 'black' fan, but that is a seriously cool creation, of sorts, and well worth the adoration many are showing it!!!

dandagreer I think your approach of just using spare parts on the machine you'll send it vs the original is genius !!!! I REALLY want to see and hear your take on their end result that you'll receive. I've heard vastly different tales of the 'quality' of the restoration work. Widely different...
