    Hoover 612 refurb 1940s/50s

    I got this in the same joblot as the vortex and the Turboboost but due to work have never really had the time or energy to do anything with it, anyway here it is, it needs a lot of work doing to it but Im sure I will be able to do something with it.

    Hoover TURBOBOOST U2570 (december 1988)

    The bags that this came with for some reason all had holes in them as if someone made a slit through the pack with scissors, so for now I have had to put some tape on them as it is a shame to waste an entire packet of genuine bags.

    Hoover TURBOBOOST U2570 (december 1988)

    This model came with a bag light which illuminated when full, I believe this was caused by positive and negative pressure.
