magicJack throughout the house . . . Also, If you have your magicJack plugged DIRECTLY into your router using the included USB Power Supply, with Ma Bell already DISCONNECTED from your house, simply connect an RJ11 cable between the mJ and the closest RJ11 wall outlet to use your existing...

The facts Ma'am . . . My magicJack GO usually disconnects calls after 90-minutes, in order to reduce network congestion from users that forget to hang up after their conversation ends. YES, it happens more than you think! I just hit re-dial and I'm good for another 90-minutes. Also: Is your...

http://www.vacuumland.org/TD/JPEG/BASKET/2016/20160322/hoovercelebrity-2016032213164905005_1.jpg OK, now you have almost $30.00 tied up in stones ALONE, that could have the whole job done by a PROFESSIONAL on a lathe for around HALF of that. YOU DO THE MATH ! ! !

Point well taken, but . . . "Well, for those of us who aren't able to go to the lathe store and pick up a lathe, the stones work just fine." I offered my comment regarding truing the commutator on a lathe as he'd already disassembled the vacuum, his noise complaint, brush wear, and the photos...

Holy Crud Batman ! ! ! After putting together the Royal Metal Upright recently given me, I just tossed a black plastic Dirt Devil whose housing was a static-cling anode. When changing the bag, you could literally see dust kicked up from the brush roller being zapped to the plastic housing like...

Unh Unh ! ! ! You treat technology like the old adage goes: Keep YOUR FRIENDS CLOSE, and YOUR ENEMIES EVEN CLOSER. Meaning, if ya snooze ya lose, as technology turns over so quickly that if ya blink ya miss a lot of it that seems to take forever to catch up to, and by the time you do that...

Huh, what ? ? ? and to think I only came here for information regarding my clean/never used Royal Metal Upright Vacuum, given me as a gift in appreciation for a favor helping clean out a $175.00 a month self-storage unit after 9-years of storing $500.00 worth of mostly junk! This site just...

Well, ummmmmmmmm ? ? ? "@hoovercelebrity: If I were to use a lathe, as MPN suggested, I would imagine I could easily use commutator stones, am I wrong?" NO! use the lathe's cutting tool bit, because you want to remove as little material as possible to achieve "Concentricity". Using a...

Well, here goes . . . "@MPN: What should I use to machine the commutator? Fine sandpaper? I have heard of these electric motor commutator cleaning sticks. Would you recommend them?" Like I said: A lathe is the best method, if you have access to one. If you're not going to take that approach...

Hmmmmmmmmm ? ? ? From shat I'm seeing in the first photo, the shaft seems to gave a blue tinge indicating overheating due to lack of lubrication. This could very well be your noise! While you have it apart, if you have access to a lathe, check the commutator for out of round. If it is out of...

Hi Jane, At this point in time, forget about a schematic as Royal (now TCI-Dirt Devil) has no idea what an Anniversary Edition Model#89103 even is. You'll do best on Vac Parts+, (Henry Co.) eReplacementParts.com, and other websites discussed here on this forum. Right now besides belts, I'd...

Electrolux = Frigidaire My granddaughter rented a condo a year ago with a newly installed Frigidaire refrigerator that literally sounded like a midget with an icepick was in the freezer compartment trying to chop their way out. She literally thought someone had been breaking into her kitchen...

Better Quality Photos Hello again everyone, The previous photos were shot with my new digital camera in "Auto Mode" that uses a screening filter for reflective (shiny) surfaces to reduce glare. After looking at the photos I'd previously posted here, I finally decided to dig into the user guide...

Finished Photos as Promised Hello again everyone, Well, it's finished, and here are the photos I promised . . . Thanks again to everyone that offered their help, Mike

As far as brushes are concerned, go to your local hardware store (not Home Depot or Lowes) with what's left of your old brushes, and match them to brushes in their Hillman or Jandorf assortment that are roughly the same size or slightly on the PLUS size. You'll have to estimate the length...

Well, I spoke too soon . . . I couldn't help myself, and ended up putting the vacuum together tonight after dinner. The replacement shaft extension screwed onto the motor shaft just fine, but when I got everything together I noticed that the tip of the shaft extension was rubbing against the...

Hello again everyone, I just received the replacement motor shaft extension P/N:380261 from eReplacementparts.com, replacing the defective one they'd previously sent me. This one screws all the way down clamping the fan onto the motor shaft, so apparently the first shaft extension wasn't...

"I don't mean to dismiss you, but it definitely sounds more like arcing, as kirbyvertibles suggested." Brushes arching on the commutator makes a "hissing" or sputtering sound if the brushes and/or commutator are really worn. Another thought . . . If the brushes are really worn down to where...

Does the noise change with the belt removed???

CORRECTION: It was the Vac Parts + website I obtained the aforementioned information from, and that I'll be calling tomorrow. Sorry for any confusion, Mike
