    "What's wrong with this picture, er, listing...?"

    hose conversion i find 612 side conversion stronger suction than later 652 rear. the side one seems more sealed and holds strength of suction longer. i still say its to do with paper bag pores clogging on 652 and of course cloth only on 612 type si

    look what I took in for searvice in my vac shop

    hose suction i personally find better hose suction with my 1952 612 side conversion than my 1970 652c rear conversion 2speed. when you put a fresh bag on suction is quite good through the hose but it seems to weaken after the first hour, as if the paper bag pores clog with dust, however, the...

    My Hoover Model 638

    braided hose That hose must have been very shortlived, I didnt know dustette had 1 first. I see its handle end has at that time evolved to the modern type rather than the 612 or 119 handle. Would like to see some pics of this "crossover" hose if anyone have any from whatever Hoover model of...

    hoover 612 conversion for doublestretch hose toolkit

    what do you think!!? Probably not authentic as i have the proper toolkit, but i bet there were people who bought the new type hose to go on these models a few years later, as replacements or adding toolkits in cases where they didnt get one with the cleaner when purchased. Of course the later...
