steel wool pads Dear VEROROGER, steel wool pads were often used with foor polishers with the purpose of removing a very thin superficial layer especially on unfinished wooden floors to revome minor scratches before applying a new coat of wax and polish it! I hope this helps! Greetings Tommy

Dear friends, very sorry for not having posted anything for a while but I'm back with a problem I'd like to ask you suggestions for easy resolution. As it might have happened to many of you guys, the supprssor of one of my Hoover seniors exploded some time ago and I removed it; Could any of you...

Dear Billy, thank you very much! Actually, counting well, I've been looking for this particular vac for 30 years...It just happened on a lucky night, we had guests for dinner and one of them brought a 45 years old bottle of a great italian wine, we opened it and, guess what it was excellent so...

Thank you Paul, I was about to think that my post, connected to the older one, just didn't raise any attention. The reason why this particular Hoover model is so important for me is because when I was about 4-5 years old, there was one in my primary school, used to clean the carpeted play area...

Vorwerk vk 117/et 30 owners manual Dear all, as you might have probably seen in my past posts, I love Vorwerk vacuum cleaners! I thought it would be nice to share quick scans of the vk 117 owner’s manual, last version, sold in Italy from 1980 to 1983. I’m at your disposal for any question...

Rowdy To me a Tradition or an Heritage with shakeout bags have tremendous airflow, are more powerful than with even the best bags. As long as you're not concerned with filtration. Any Kirby with proper bag filling system and proper high filtration bag actually clean better for the simple reason...

In Italy Dear all, I have two Kirby Traditions, one from 1979 and one from 1981: both of them have two speed motors, one came with the shake-out bag, the other with paper bag fill tube and the original bags with horizontal oval opening. I have always wondered the reason of such a small fill...

Dear All, happy new year! I haven't posted for a while but believe me, I keep a lovely eye on you everyday! When I find any vacuum cleaner, despite its appearence, I don't care much about how dirty it is or how it looks like, I want to make sure there are no visible broken parts I wouldn't be...

Eurekaprince, that adapter is not for using the polsterboy on its own for that purpose, it something for allowing the electric cord of polsterboy pb430 on a vacuum cleaner vk 120. Quite Tricky! No literature or videos at all! Let's make it! Tommy

EUREKA! Hello, I needed to think a little about it but I came out with a possible solution: that adapter was meant to replace tha main telescopic handle of a german Vorwerk vk 120, and allow to connect the electric portable handle that was provided with the original "Polster boy" whan it had to...

Hello, congratulations, I love that convertible, it was very rare over here, I have one too. To remove the brushroll endcaps you should be able to unscrew them holding one with your right hand and twisting the other with a counter-clockwise turn. Sometimes spraying some ws5 between the brushroll...
