How many Sanitaire Service Centers did you contact? In the past when I've searched for items (albeit unrelated to surface care appliances) I have contacted different ones until I've achieved my mission. I find it hard to believe that if you took your S490A to a SSC that the techs would not...

Nice. Bag packages list a D745 & D745L. I would venture a guess that there's an Electrolux-labeled one ("Lux by Electrolux") that was made in Sweden and a Lux-labeled one that was made in Switzerland after the split of the two companies.

You're welcome. I had never heard of Hugin cleaners until now. It seems that Volta, while based on the Electrolux designs, had their own unique compositions. This was different than Electrolux Corporation/Electrolux Canada, Inc. (US and CA having merged in 1985 due to NAFTA). It used its...

Here is someone else's video of the Volta U240:

Thanks for the information and attachment. Btw, I have been enjoying watching some of your YouTube videos lately. I like how you include the specs in your descriptions. You likely have this information, but in case you need a refresher and for others who are interested here's some AI-generated...

I intended to include these, too:

Hesco may have the wiring diagram, or you could contact a Sanitaire Service Center: https://www.sanitairecommercial.com/pages/dealer-service-locator?srsltid=AfmBOorV9lVFFoODE1lpDyopyQD-bxt-RwloOe6FKOmclGjfisOx87gC

Interesting Kenmore background. I located your '70s Kenmore design model in a Sears 1989 catalog, and on the same page noticed a 3.9-amp model, which I presume is the one you called the Eureka Ironsides design. If so, you were possibly thinking of the Express or Aero (I'm unfamiliar with the...

It's the only one mentioned online that I have seen. Brian (Eurekaprince) would know for sure.

Found a 1991 Sears Catalog with what appears to be the model-type 4034-B, and a 1980 Montgomery Wards catalog with its "Wide-stroke" model SP8880 in Hot Fudge & Frosted White.

Must've been sold in 1990, because the Ironsides were only marketed from 1989 to 1992; Sears catalog uploads are available during that span except for that year. The Kenmore canisters at the time were much more modern-looking than the Ironsides, whose styling originated with the Sweet Sixteens...

Hi Mike, I think you were replying to Samir, but just wondering how the plastic fans fared (taking for granted that they were Lexan and not Kevlar).

Turns out there was, in fact, a metallic gold Princes model 705 that was marketed in 1967 (see the Lagoon Blue/Platinum Blue 705-B in reply #14), but the model in the photo is the same design as the 737 with a wide handle, lid striations, and Cordaway. No other ads for a metallic gold...

Hesco Schematics Lists

Hi Ben, The only online information I was able to locate were the attached Hesco schematics for the Sanitaire Power Team model-types S485-A & S490-A & B and for the commercial power nozzles.

Oops - not Sears brand, but Sears model

Updates invited.

I like scrambled eggs, but scrambled pages is annoying, so here's a page-by-page upload attempt at order.

Hi there from the USA! I am impressed with Elliott's persona, knowledge, organization, curiosity, and mechanical skill along with the Pippa's kindness, enthusiasm and interviewing talent; and oh, yes, it's an incredible vacuum cleaner collection and cool that he mentioned Vacuumland, too! What...
