Hoover 62 or 63 Handisac adapter Hello All, I said bought a Hoover 63 Handisac adapter but it could be a Hoover 62 Handisac adapter. I am not sure which it is. Thank you for looking, Pete

There are a few thing that could cause it not to lock shut Hello All and Huskyvacs, Without taking the door apart, which is not a big deal, check the following. Locking device on door side without closing it is the lever spring springing the lever up to the locking position and not wobbling...

My just received Hoover 61 and parts not need of Hoover 300 Hello All, I really did not want to buy the Hoover 61 but it looked to be in reasonably good condition and from the picture I could tell it had the Handisac outer bag but was not mentioned that it did have. As it turned out it had the...

I have to agree with Hoover61 about the hood Hello All and Hoover61, I would have to agree with you about Hoover using the newer Hoover 61 Hood on a Hoover 60 Special as who would want it with a scratch hood. That would not have been so good. Wondering what Hoover would have done if there were...

Could the date of 1950 be wrong? Hello All and Jae, I just re-read Thread Number 29565 and Hooverboy81 indicates he has a Hoover 825 Special that was rebuilt in 1951. If you read this Thread all the way to the end it does seem Hoover was rebuilding vacuums much longer than the 1950 date and...

100 percent correct Jae, it was a 60 Hello All and Jae, You are correct Jae, what I saw was the 60. (See Thread Number 29565) I just don't see a problem with either a 28 or a 60 being traded in for a newer model or in need of repair. The 60 pictured seems to have been turned into a 61 as it...

Well it is the early metal hood model Hello All and Hoover61, Oh, I’m going to anger some I guess, but I am old so it is a bit more acceptable possibly. It is the early Hoover 28 with a Serial Number of 2829178 with the metal hood and as you say this idiot might have decided to trade it in on...

My Bison Mark II and Thread Number 25205 Hello All, I have the Mark II Bison and while it has a massive amount of power it is a deafening experience to use. I had to replace the belt which was beyond a ridiculous experience. If I ever wanted to buy one again, I do still have my Mark II, I would...

Hello Gabriel and All, Up at the top of each Vacuumland opening page there is " Manuals & Literature" and I needed a schematic of the Hoover Dial A Matic and lo and behold it was there and only cost 3.99 to download "Hoover Dial-A-Matic Service Instructions" and it is really comprehensive. It...

Hello Frank, Chad, Reggie and All, I have a Singer Model H-4 and the Royal Junior Model 81 hand held vacuums and now this little MW/Apex which seems to have more suction power than the others. It also is well made but in that era most things were well made. The split casting is interesting and I...

Hello All, Well I could not pass this little Montgomery Ward hand held vacuum up. I don't think I have seen one like it before. It runs great and really has a lot of power. The bag is in good shape. I think it is older than the Montgomery Ward/Eureka upright I got a week ago. I don't have a clue...

Hello Huskyvacs and All, I have 2 of the small screw one is really good and the other is not as good. Don't let the screw that you have on the locking side bottom out in the groove as that can make it drag. The screw points need to be in the groove so the bail/yoke/fork will not come off but...

Hello Huskyvacs an All, Your description worked for me and I really don't know what it is properly called. I know I have 2 or more extras packed away that I don't need. I will look in the morning and let you know. Thank you for looking, Pete

Hello Huskyvacs and All, I just want to make sure we are talking about the same small screw on the Hoover 700 yoke/fork so here are two pictures. Please let me know. I should have some extra one. Thank you for looking, Pete

Hello again, Sorry it is not "Your Rarest Vacuum Cleaner" it is "You Rarest Vacuum Cleaner" but Thread No. 17 will get you there anyway. Sorry, Pete

Hello All and Huskyvacs, That is interesting, 1945. I found this thread from 2006, Thread No. 17 "Your Rarest Vacuum Cleaner" and the Reply No. 31; Post #234207 of 05-27-2013 by 1926700 is a picture of a Eureka and indicates that it is a 1946 Eureka. That Eureka look a lot like the one in the...

Pictures of Model Tag and Logo on Hood Hello All and Eureka Fans, You got it, the Model Tag and Hood Logo. I had them but did include the pictures in my original Post for some reason. I have been trying to find out more information on this vacuum and on YouTube I found a video from 2011 on a...

Hello All, I have received a Montgomery Ward Model 74SP437A Vacuum. I know they were manufactured by Eureka but I have never seen one like this MW. To release the handle, you push down and to lower it all the way down you must push downward on the machine again. Putting the handle up from the...

Hello All, Regarding the Tan G I see that some had brown wheels and some had white wheels. Was there any particular reason for the white or brown wheels or for that matter even the Tan G? When I worked at the shop I only remember repairing and painting the Aqua G and I have no memory of ever...

Hello All, I have Tan G that has had the PN connector removed from the bottom and installed on top. I don't know why a shop would do it but they did. I have the Aqua G with the PN Connector below the bag fill adjuster on the front. I do not recall seeing a Tan G with the connector below the bag...
