Not a problem! I love old nutones. They're the only central vacs ill buy now. I sold me kenmore central vac about a month ago and replaced it with a rebuilt NuTone cv450; two motor white unit. Then I have the Canadian cv353, and the American version of the 353 as well, which is what I picked up...

Not sure why the pictures went all patterned after I scanned it, but It gets the job done I guess. Heres that page with the tool that you were referring too. Daniel :-)

Heres the tool found in the NuTone manual for my CV 353! It is the same tool! I have the motor driven one instead of the air driven power nozzle. Heres some pics! Daniel :-)

@bagintheback I just picked up another 70's red NuTone central vac earlier today and it came with the manual, and I think I know exactly what you're talking about the turbine nozzle being NuTone related. There's a picture of a turbine nozzle identical to it in the manual. Will post pics...

So I was doing some googling of old eureka central vacs, and I came across this in one of the image results on google. Its a Sequoia Central Vacuum system.. referred to as R2D2. I personally have never heard of it. I was wondering if anyone has heard of this type of central vac, as it looks very...

If you can take them back and get the proper blue bag, just to be on the safe side, that might be your best bet. Just incase you're worried about it leaking, you know you will be sure that the bag is the right one made for it, and you know it wont leak. If I had the option to return them and get...

These bags should work just fine. Make sure they're not the "F", or "functional fit" bags though. I believe they come in a blue pack. I actually use the f style on my G3, and they work good, and the seal in the collar seals everything off so it doesn't leak. I just hook one of the tabs at the...

I might be able to get a hose for it from work thats used, but Im not 100%. And you are right, shipping may be high depending on your location. Some areas is actually fairly reasonable. As for the wands and power nozzle I cant help you out. It never came with one, the brown one did, although it...

Would you be interested in the green one? Daniel :-)

Hey everyone, hope you're enjoying your holidays! I have two kenmore canisters from the 70's that my grandpa dropped off at my house a little while ago, and I have cleaned them up, but I have so many vacs that I don't use them. Would anyone here be interested in them? The green one only comes...

WOW! Thats one big motor/pump! I wonder if that would take the paint off the walls! LOL Daniel :-)

Usually in North America, central vacs only have the one motor, unless you have a really big machine. Some of them pack quite a punch to them too. My NuTone CV450, which is the new central vac hooked up to the house, has 2 two stage motors in it, setup like you described, where one sucks the...

Hey Jayson, I actually use the original filter that is probably the original. It is slowly deteriorating over the years, and Ive just been waiting for a genuine electrolux filter for it to come up some time on ebay. Im not sure what to suggest, as that is all I use, and I have never experimented...

Forgot to mention, that if you have any gasket tape, you could probably get away with that, as long as its all around on both sides, the dirt will still fall out sometimes if you open the bag chamber, but if you remove the cord and stand it on its back end, standing strait up, it will balance...

I've also fitted mine with a paper bag that slides into the cloth one and wraps around over the gasket and tucks in, without affecting the performance. It's a Kirby generation 3 bag, cut right below the cardboard bag mount, and then tucked in around the gasket. If this makes any sense, it may...
