My case is...... A. You lied to this poor man about having said literature in the first place. B. I don't care what you or Fred S, or you say on the matter, you are the same kid whom recommended someone use a Convertible with out a belt or a brush roll. So you pretty much have no conception...

..... I rest my case..

Andy R.... Told Phillip that he doesn't even have the service manual in question. Repairman, If  I were you I would just go buy the Powerdrive Dial.A.Matic service manual off the Automatic Ephemera section of the site. The Power Drive Transmission is the same machine in both machines, and is...

Robert.... If you are not too familiar with this kind of motor, then why are you giving a suggestion??? I have serviced COUNTLESD of these. Furthermore, this is not the same motor Sanitaires usually use, yes the sleve bearings do wear out from time to time...

Well, then as a EXPERIANCED..... Eureka Expert.....I would say it is the top Sleeve motor bearing, sometimes they do wear out. there is two hood springs that remove the hood, and well as the screw in the middle of the Dial.A.Nap. Then the sleeve bearing is in the middle of the top cover that...

How do you know this machine is "loosing Suction"? If that is your reason for needing a new bearing, stop for a minute and take into consideration, this is a upright direct air vacuum....In the first place, belts need to be replaced every two to three months, weather the machine is used or not...

But if the BUYER....... Is willing to pay shipping, then what does it matter? its not going to come out of your pocket.

no Ben.... I have seen long boxes with the names "Mark II" and "Mark III" before.

so Ben let me ask you this, or anyone else that might know.. As far as the 516-561 are concerned, how many of the boxes boasted the "Mark IV" (I cant quite remember the actual number off hand so excuse that.) name?   My AunTie Joey, when I was a kid always had Kirbys, at this time...

That is SEA blue..... Not seafoam. His a actually the first variation from 1976, it is actually model U6039. Which means your bottom plate has been replaced.  Now how I can tell yours is a earlier one is, that is has the older, smaller Hoover plug. In 1976 Hoover changed over their plugs to one...

Hello, Yesterday afternoon I stopped at a Estate sale and found something! I walked in to the garage, and saw this poor dear shoved into the corner with a free sign, so me liking higher end twin fans with all the bells and whistles, had to grab this. Turns out she was just coverd in paint...

On a power drive DAM.... Sadly, the handle is not removable. Only the non Power Drive models are. So thus it was packed in one piece at the factory, and it will have to be shipped in one piece.

I am glad you are there to help me Ben.... It seems you are the ONLY one whom took interest in this thread. I thought there were others on this forum that liked Royal...

Hey there Vacuumland, old Jae here again to share my new find! This past weekend I happened to be in the company of my good friend and fellow collector Phillip Muller, and we were on a thrifting expedition, and we ran across this what appeared to be a Electro Hygiene, for $6.00 and tax. Phillp...

My first love was.... A 1973 Straight suction Eureka Cordaway princess I had many many years ago, I loved that thing, and remember it well. I finally found one a few years back in mint condition, and the memories flooded back.   But, when I started collecting, I didn't really have a...
