Thank you for letting me know! I knew that they installed bags like this as replacements but I wasnt sure if this was one of those or not. Thanks for the clarification!

I have a bag for a Hoover model 800 that is in descent shape. There is a very small hole at the top of the bag near where the spreader attaches. It can be easily repaired. I would like to trade it for a Hoover model 700 bag that is in descent shape. If you have a model 700 bag that you are...

I too am interested primarily in the 1920s era. I collect 1920s phonographs, radios, toasters, heaters, lamps, typewriters and all other kinds of things from the era. I recently restored a Hoover model 541 from 1923. It was the model that came before your model 700. I too commonly use my Hoover...

My test setup:

After restoring my Hoover 541, I got curious as to how it cleaned compared to a modern Dyson DC 25. So, I did a test between the two. Before the test, I made sure the Hoover's bag was thoroughly beaten out and the Dyson's bin was emptied. I divided a rug equally in half and vacuumed one side of...

Thank you so much!

Thank you for helping me. What Im trying to do is print out new instruction manuals. My father works at a copier company where I can have new manuals printed out professionaly.

Does anyone have a complete instruction manual for the Hoover 541? I cant seem to find it anywhere on the internet. If you have it, could you scan it and either post the scans or send me the scans. I would very much apreciate it. Thanks! -Cody

There is a listing on ebay for NOS replacement brushes for the 700. Here it is: http://www.ebay.com/itm/HOOVER-ANTIQUE-NOS-7-SETS-OF-MODEL-450-700-BRUSHES-RARE-NOS-/160998448690?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item257c415e32#ht_63wt_1170

How I made the bag: The cloth is white, thin canvas for durability. I treated it with lemon oil to make it dust proof. I then cut out all the pieces of the bag and sewed them together. For the Hoover logo, I printed out the logo on paper and put double sided tape on the back of the paper...

I finished restoring my Hoover model 541. I made a new bag for it, replaced the power cord with a twisted cloth cord, and acquired a dusting tools set for it. here is the link for the video:

My Hoover 541 finally arrived. I cleaned it and oiled the motor. The motor runs fine but, the brush doesnt rotate very easily. It came with a belt but it is slipping on the brush. How do I grease the brush bearings?

Thank you for your answer! I have another question: Is the black rubber power cord original?

Hi, Im new to this forum. I just bought a Hoover 541 that is in working condition and complete. My question is what is the procedure for repairing it before I use it? I read somewhere that you have to grease the motor bearings. Also, it is quite dirty. The aluminum part is dull and dusty. What...
