Thanks, guys. That helps clear it up. Not quite sure where the problem was but the wiring was correct, but I took everything apart, greased bearings, cleaned inside (was very dirty) and put it back together. Runs perfect now. I couldn't get the front bearing out though. I'm guessing it is...

Hi All, I was using my dual sanitronic 50 a few weeks ago and the speed switch cracked and the vacuum went into a lower speed and started to smoke. I got a new switch, installed it, and when the power nozzle is on, it works fine on a higher speed. Well, I went to attach the hose, and it...

Looks like a fantastic time! I remember playing with my Grandmothers Concept One then she bought the Power Drive!

Thanks to you both!

Hi All, I was using my Dual Sanitronic this morning and when I attached the hose, the button on the speed switch cracked off, the vacuum reduced speed, and started to smoke. I assume that is because the switch is malfunctioning now that it's broken, so I ordered a new one. What is entailed in...

All polished and cleaned... All cleaned and polished. Washed the bag in my front load washer on "hand wash" and it smells awesome and works good as new.

Just bought a b8 and love it. Smooth as ever and really polishes well. I'm a fan.

all the tools we have now, we cant produce anything of this Isn't this the truth! I love all of the vintage appliance and vacuum finds and enjoy using them more than new "stuff" I have. How can our country have "pride" when we get so much junk from China. Unreal!

Congratulations on an amazing find Thanks! I'll post some pics once I get it all cleaned up. It sure sounds awesome when running and is smooth as ever. Definitely was excited to add it to my collection!

Post pics Hi James, I sure will. Thanks!

Thanks, Ben. I'll have to keep my eye out for one.

I found this today on craigslist. It has all of the attachments, instuctions, and accessories. It literally looks like none of it has been used. The bag doesn't seem to be original nor does the cord, but that's OK. I was shocked it was in such great condition and runs like a charm. Going to...

The brushroll on mine is worn too, can't seem to locate one. It also needs a belt.

I'll take a few pics once it's all clean. It sounds great running too!

The Finest HOOVER Cleaner Ever Built It is built well and has a lot of power. I love the whole look of the machine and was shocked what great shape it was in. I am lucky to have found it for such a crazy low price. Didn't think twice about grabbing it up. Thanks for the info!

Provided that you have the clip I do have the clip. It had an old bag on it with some dust in it. Just had that antique smell haha. What year did they produce those? I'm not too familiar with hoovers, but this one is surely cool. Thanks!

Hi All, I found this for two bucks at the goodwill! Pretty excited. Works well just needs a paper bag and a belt. Does anyone know what year / model this is and where I can find bags? I'd like to know a litle more about it. It was really clean and looks hardly used. Just needed wiped off...

part no. 118067 Thanks, Ben! That looks like it.

Hi All, Does anyone know where I can get correct motor brushes for my Sanitronic? It is not the dual sanitronic. I think the company I ordered brushes from sent me ones for a dual. Thanks!

Hi Will and Ben, That's as I suspected. I'll have to look to pickup a Dual Sanitronic. There is a complete one on craigslist for $100. I'm offering $75, as it needs a good buffing, but even for a complete model with all accessories, I don't think 100 is even that bad. Thanks!
