The one on the left is mine, the date I found appears to be 1970. The one on the right appears to be 1962. Is this correct? What machine goes with this white and green power nozzle?

Post any numbers you find on the bottom, or a closeup pic.


A lot of times, you can go to the Sears PartsDirect website to get the info you need

If that is the model number (116.29120) for your power nozzle, it came with the 116.29790 canister vacuum - 1968 vintage
 
I'm thinking somebody goofed on your model number 116.4880 , it is one digit short for partsdirect.


Use 116.A4880, and you will find a nozzle that appears similar.


There is a 116.4885 in the database however.


Both appear very similar.


To save the diagrams, pullup the page, select full size, right click on image, and save it to file.


This will then have the granularity to zoom in.


 


Here is an image showing the 116.4885 & 116A.4880 together 


They appear identical, and the <span style="font-size: 12pt;">116A.4880 has the date January, 1963 on it</span>

The light green....

Powermate is actually mine. I bought it for a Kenmore canister that was missing its Powermate.

Is that the one I recently sold?  Was the collar cracked and coming apart where the wand goes in?


 


I have to say again-  I love your house and decor.  Such good memories of the 70s.
