    Kirby 519

    Hey The alcoa aluminum sticker you can take off. It has nothing to do with vacuums. They make metal siding for houses. The suction relief iirc wasn't on kirbys until 560. I could be wrong but I believe that suction relief is off a hoover maybe. It has the sweet aire cap on the back side of...

    Shop vacs

    I Have milwaukees 12 gallon 2 18 volt battery shop vacuum. I got a screaming deal o.n it. Craftsman red shop vacs with detachable blower or rigid are good vacuums. If you put bags in shop vacs they perform considerably better.

    The Bulbs oreck uses is the same as kirby 505-1cr. Eureka uprights use for 30 plus years to current date. The royal vacuum used the same bulb. I want to say sylvania 1156. I had an oreck xl commercial in yellow look just like yours and it took the bulb I mentioned.
