Thanks--do you know what it's called? Also, would it fit on an Electrolux?

Thanks for the information, Ray and John. Very interesting. So, which motors would be interchangeable--or are they all until the larger Super J motor? Also, I forgot to list the Model GHs (hospital Gs). Would they each have had the same respective motors as their household counterparts, or...

When I was at the beach earlier I noticed several people blowing up air mattresses which took me back to a photo I saw of a vacuum cleaner being used to blow up balloons. So, is there an attachment that I could purchase for an Electrolux that would allow me to use it to inflate air mattresses...

Wow, John. Looks like a collector's paradise!

Thanks, Tom, Ray, and Anthony. Tom - Points well taken. Sounds like you're doing what you can to help individuals and families take good care of their home environments and their cleaners. Way to go. Ray - No worries about me using steam cleaner formula with my Model B-8s. I'll just bet...

That's great, Tom. I hope that's the rule and not the exception. I applaud your boss for refurbishing what he can and donating them. If I were more knowledgeable and had the resources to do so, I'd enjoy doing that, too. One thing I would try to do, though, is ask the charity to set up a...

Congrats to you, Tom! Post pics when you can.

Information gleaned from in other threads (using my mind's gleaner--not the carpet cleaner instrument-- haha): 1) cleaning or replacing worn fans 2) checking the hose inlet seal for deterioration and replacing if necessary 3) replacing the air filter located on the inside of the exhaust port...

I think that's a great way to use a cleaner that is defective--particularly in the case of the motor. The real genius, of course, would be to figure out a way to attach the lamp so it could be easily detached and still be used for cleaning if it weren't defective. A canister could be set on...

I should also include "stores" with "companies", which most likely receive the greater benefit if any.

Just curious ... Besides the obvious spare parts--how do vacuum cleaner companies benefit from trade-in cleaners? So many seem to have warehouses or storage rooms of them that just collect dust. Are trade-ins just a gimmick to make customers think they are getting a deal on a lower price...

Red_October, how did your Model CB turn out?

Can anyone help me make a list of Electrolux USA canister motors? I'm thinking it would be a good resource for those who are wondering which motor mounts and motor housing sizes are the same when looking for replacements. It would also be interesting to note how the watts, amps, and volts have...

Tom, That's too bad that the former database's editing method was so prone to inaccuracies. Glad to hear that over the last 20 or so years that the system has been improved. Also, it sounds like you have a good system for accuracy. It's too bad, though, that Aerus hasn't retained the...

Tom, I wonder if either the lister's number was off by one digit, or if your service tech entered it incorrectly. Of course, it could also be that the number was originally recorded incorrectly. I like how Electrolux started doing the serial id stickers on the machines that were supposed to...

John, Thanks for the information. However, there is a lack of consistency within Electrolux documents, then, because the manual states "Model F" (see photo). Also, the manual for my aqua-colored cleaner states "Model G"--even though it, too, is an automatic machine. Model E and Model AE...

Thanks for the information, Tom and Ray. Ray, I'd thought about that manual cover being a late LX but hadn't gone back to look carefully. Good eye! Thanks for the clarification. The fact that the LXI was only manufactured for less than a year would make it likely that there was no manual...

@tom (re: reply #31) From the eBay lister: "Not my mom, and does not explain the model number embossed in the case."

Thanks for the information, Rick, Tom, John, and Jimmy. Jimmy--please post photos, if you can, of the wand differences. The lister has since communicated that he isn't sure that the cleaner was purchased at State--just that parts and repairs were. Rick and Tom - (re: comment to Rick in...
