human use rubbing and polishing compound for painted and plastic polishing. it can also be used on metal. its much more inclusive and better results. i use turtle wax rubbing compound and turtle wax polishing compound from oreillys or any auto store. polish/cut with terry cloth, buff with...

short answer is no. the wiring is different for one, two the casting pins that toch the speed switch are completely different. three, the lug the casting holds on is different. its not intercompatible at all

don't toss it! that bristle ring can be replaced! yes its genuine hoover and as john said on the lower end budget models of the mid 60's it was done away with for tabbed version to make attachments universal around 1965 if i remember right

dont replace the cord! its part of the vintage of the machine! that 1076 is 100% original and as long as the inside insulation isnt nicked, that cord is perfectly safe. and that black electrical tape on the bellows is from the factory, that's not a home hack. it holds the bellows to the...

actually charles, yes you have communicated with me in the past via email. you wanted to , without having introduced yourself or wanting to aquaint in any way, buy one of the 18" supersweep/comvac brushrolls off me when i hadnt even offered them for sale for that unique 518 with the large head...

charlie you can do with your website as you wish, however; the fact youre more concerned about your pride than the preservation of the information for future generations is what i have a problem with. it seems to me you care more about the fact you did the research than the point of it...

it might be an old archive charlie, but you totally eliminated all vacuum information on that site now, the archive is all we have now for that data and info.

719 is a two speed machine. the speed switch lever is on the right side of the machine if youre looking at the bottom of the machine brushroll down. if the flipper switch inside the converter slot is missing, someone intentionally removed it, or it broke off. the 1011 attachment set would be...

youre going to have to ALOT more specific as to what year and a photo of the pn. the 1973-1985 pn's did NOT have lenses fyi.

thats 100% original u4017. oddball promotional cleaner made from leftover parts from older production models. hood and bumpers were lefter stock from u4001 and bag from 1076 leftovers

so youre the one who bought that one for 25 bucks in Connecticut. you have no idea how rare that is. that's the lowest production convertible ever made with 5000 units. i have the two penncrest versions. i find the cordreel cumbersome. people love them from a collectibility standpoint, but...

what GE slim vac john? a U1 upright???

if youre not interested in it dont get it. i learned long ago collecting vacuums if you dont have a buyer lined up before you get it, it stays

i can say for sure and for certain that was never the case. the last hoover slimline model was the s3033 which started production in 1975. both the slimline and portable were discontinued in 1977. the connie in 1975. there wouldve been no product overlap at all. the celebrities replaced all...

gregvacs28 sears parts direct has NLA'd everything for that machine about 2017. the cam with the numbers was still available, but the part that breaks hasnt been available for 30 years. thats why i scratch built it

it may be pristine except for one flaw mentioned in the description that everyone glosses over that makes the powerhead virtually useless. the height adjuster is broken (likely shattered or flat out sheared off) and makes the PN sit too low even on low pile carpets to do anything but burn up...

its bad to let any vacuum sit for long periods of time. without use the bearing grease degreades, sleeve bearing oil dries out. usage keeps lubricants hot and fluid so they do their job. if you add poor storage conditions into the mix, humid basement, or extreme heat. can make parts like...

fairfax started using the eureka pn under liscense from 1989-2008.
