So when we going to see the Ranger in action?

Well if you want something bad enough use any means necessary to get it so i agree with the "throw into the boot and speed off method" it just sounds like the guy at your dump is a jobsworth. Someone in my work was dumping stuff last week and they saw a vacuum lying and grabbed it for me i...

Brilliant, thanks Simon. i thought it was from around 1965 unfortunately its lost its origonal bag and hood cover but the furniture guard and handle are still there, its a great cleaner.

With regards taking things from the dump " If you dont ask you dont get" the dump is a great place for finding stuff, i have heard of people throwing out vacuums just because they needed emptied and nothing else wrong with them its crazy. On the belt changing thing how did it take 20 minutes to...

Hi can anyone tell me the best way to remove the front set of wheels on the above models for replacement purposes. Thanks Mark

Thanks Ben

Looks a nice example of a Ranger cant wait to see a vid of it running.

I havent posted any photos of it so how could you know it was November 67? It has 1334A stamped onto to the cast alloy casing and it is the Hop and Jonquil green version so it could be around 1965. Cheers Mark

Yes on the newer style serial numbers you can from about 1969 onwards but this is older it goes by production numbers by year.

Hi Has anyone got production numbers for the Hoover 1334A so i can age my model. Thanks Mark

You are right well i dont have any 3 so i put in a 5 for now.

Ok i checked my Hoover instruction manual and it says connect to a 13amp plug fused at 3amp so Twocybloke you were right enough and i will change my fuses. i think the cunfusion is with the plug if it does say 13amp on it doesnt mean that you have to put a 13amp fuse in it as was said earlier...

Well i aint replacing them they have been there for years without a problem.

All my machines have 13amp fuses and the only one with an origonal plug is my 1354A which has a Manweb plug on where it was purchased many years ago but not by me.

I have a 1976 Senior 6525E which is our everyday vac and a 1969 652A which i use for research and fiddling about with to see how everything works, and 2 Juniors a 1974 1354A and a 1973 1346A which i gave to the cleaner in my work today.

Well thats good its running and thats why i said check the plug before doing anything dramatic, because sometimes it is something daft. I am from Glasgow what about you?

Cant make anything out mate its all blurry?

I would check all the obvious stuff first before doing anything dramatic like the plug etc

Does anyone have an exploded diagram for the Hoover 652A on off switch? i am reassembling it and want to make sure i do it properly. Thanks Mark

My Hoover Senior 6525E shows on the rating plate that it is 400/600w but on a 6525C i saw today it shows 650/420w does this mean mine has a different motor to earlier models? Any info appreciated Mark
