Hi justin !I managed to bring a ROYAL dating from 1917 from vancouver to france ! the seller said pick up only !! I offered him double the price for the vacuum cleaner ,and then he shipped off the old royal vacuum cleaner with the help of the company he works for . I had no guarantees! I was lucky

Thanks Jeff ! I found this photo on the net representing many pieces of 2 ROYAL model H vacuum cleaners (on the photo at the top right we can see that it must have been difficult to remove this famous plate from the motor ) https://ibb.co/xskPBsh (link to view high resolution photo)

the 2 cups of oil were completely dry! the vacuum cleaner comes from an old agricultural farm in the state of washington and I think has not been used for a very long time! maybe the owners have never used oil for lubrication, the bearing at the front must be changed because he growls a lot !

thank you all for your valuable advice !! I will try tomorrow to push the plate from the back with screwdrivers @bikerray you are right it's an F model ! Unfortunately, I can't find the specific instructions for the F model on the net.

thank you Ben! I will need patience and luck to do this !

I wish I had this model with a metal hose but it seems that it was replaced by a cloth hose in 1925 , maybe too expensive to produce and too cumbersome to handle ?!
