Hey Tom
I called the museum inquiring about compact c9 literature and the kind lady said Tom handles that he will be in on the 3rd.
So I know you are a man of many resources. Being the man who may help us. Do or can you get pics scans of the c9 compact manual.
Thanks in advance.
Les
 
Hey

I'm pretty sure he will. I've read archives. The man knows vacuums. He gave tours of museum. You have to be a good person/teacher to do that. It's only a matter of time. He may be on a vacation. He has lots of friends on here.

There is a Compact Electra Manual and floor tool for sale on eBay. The item number is 292842367776. Sorry I do not remember Compact models.

Hey Dysonman
I got your attention. I was told a person named Tom worked at vacuum museum in Missouri. They said he may help in a quest for info.
Your Tom so I was told you would have the manual. Do you by chance have any compact c8 or c9 manual. I know someone else mentioned they may have it but I'm wondering if you are same person they mentioned.
I know you are helpful knowledgeable and I'll take in on the chin you enjoyed watching me get a lesson in humility.
To be fair in past month I have acquired a Dyson dc33 which is a power plant it get a bad name because me don't know how to maintain them. I also got a rainbow e2 type 12. I probably wrote it wrong but I've ventured away from Kirby's. I know you sold rainbow I believe. I don't even have to ask if you were good. The machine is also when used correctly best vacuum period.
I'll stop kissing up you may not car for me but as a fellow member in need. Do you have access to manuals for c8 or c9 ownes manual.
Thanks for reading this and go cowboys.

Oh I thought I seen you reel off a bunch of smart ellic posts boasting your vast knowledge.
Was I right to say helpful people don't help they just sit back and critique others. You are the cureator of the vacuum cleaner museum. You give many tours. I ask for assistance and you hide behind your keyboard. I know you have written professionally vacuum reviews.
Are you the onery keyboard sitting unhelpful members. If you don't help I believe you helped found vacuum club.
You have more accnowlades than anybody on here. Your ability to not help is not surprising. When I come to the museum I'll make sure your working or volunteering and introduce myself. Im not a social butterfly but I'll be sure to post it on here.
Thanks
Les
 
Really

Entitled. This is America we get what we earn. I try to help people out.
I suggest stop posting about wtf ever u do and help. This board has alot of members who can help. I'm asking a question from a person who has ability to help. I call all you wallflowers out because you don't help you critique.
I ask anyone reading this as a paying member. I should be able to get other people to help.
Stop sitting in the back when someone stumbles you throw snowballs at. I'm entitled I'm entitled to what I have got in life. That's not entitlement is calling it like it is.
I really appreciate your continued contribution to this forum. Not sure how you got that emoji but emoji and your attitude is entitlement.
Do you want me to stop and shake your hand too.
If you don't like my posts don't read them. Don't come on a thread a few days old and cast stones and step back into the shadows.
Thanks
Les
 
I sugest to stop asking the manual i will find it on google and add note to my tristat cxl manual i have now.Im letting it go i dont want to upset any one here.I will google it my self thank you all gor your time and lovely information.Happy vacuuming to all here happy new year to .
 
I have lots of literature, owners manuals, etc. They are all in a filing cabinet at the museum. However, they are not filed as such, just laid in the drawers. I need an assistant to come in and actually file everything. I am sure I have the instruction book you guys are looking for.
 
Well this is excellent news thank yo u so much i am very please that you will take time for this manual .You are so kind to help us happy vacuuming to you .

Alex, Back off & leave Les, Lesinutah, alone! As far as I'm concerned, the self entitled dick on this forum is YOU. And I'm pretty certain I'm not the only member on this forum that hates your guts, as the conversation in the thread linked below shows. You even had the nerve to question my mental health recently! Someone you have never spoken to, seen a photograph of, or met face-to-face in person. You have a TON of nerve for even THINKING of making any such statement! Then again, considering you mostly recommend German made products & you must think "If it ain't German, it ain't right!", I shouldn't be the least bit surprised. You're nothing but a racist Aryan German who, like your ancestors before you, thinks your race is superior to others just because you're German & others aren't. Your comments here, & on your YouTube channel, in my opinion, are DISGUSTING, & you are by far one of the RUDEST people I think I have ever come across in the collecting community. How you work as a professional in a vacuum shop is beyond me.

Electroluxxxx - Michael Gravelin, you ought to be ashamed of yourself for your conduct! Seriously, going ahead & attacking two members in that now-deleted threat for merely asking a couple times if somebody could post a manual?! REALLY?! You're going to be THAT PETTY? I guess somebody here has forgotten what it's like to be a new collector & seeking out information, how haven't we. Then again, I guess I shouldn't be that surprised by you....after all, you did have the NERVE to go ahead & send a negative, nasty message on Facebook when I tried to be supportive in that thread last year about the troubles Nick Long had with his Fantom Fury motor.

Well i have to agree y kirbylux77 it did cause alot of dust to fly
, when me and Lees ask for a manual to our prize vacuums. I just glad i finally got it il keep quiet now...
I am very glad to get a manual for our vacuum he delivered ahed of scheduled as far as im concern vacuumland is the only place and always will be the only place i come to for a vintage vacuum question i love this place thanks to all my restoration is Complete .Now i can vacuum happy the reason the c9 is so special to me my dead grand mother had one i tried so many time to get her vacuum so in 2012 i got my own .Now its complete whit the book i printed it aaah finally the golden book. I am one happy camper i am reading every word ever sentence could not be happyer right now .
 
Hey

Kirbylux77 your spot on.
I deleted my post.
I'm entitled to what I earn in life. I could see them getting annoyed by flooding the board with a bunch of threads.
I researched and noticed another member had once bought a c9. I called Stark museum and vacuum cleaner museum and vacuum cleaner museum told me Tom etc.
There is not a whole lot of posting lately. I post more than most.
The holy macrow compact thread Electrolux tried to prove s point. He didn't prove anything of relevance. Texaskirbyguy proved us both wrong. I realized no need to waste a whole night arguing. Tom proceeds to after the fact show us display boxes. I tend to think he doesn't share knowledge he waits for people to be wrong and post correct answer or post examples of what is right.
So that set me off. This is a forum I'm a paying member. I have the right to post asking for help. If you don't like it idgaf don't read it. It's petty and childish. I'm not entiteled it's the people who have the knowledge to help don't. That is entitled because they feel above other people and not helping. So thinking you are above me and your behavior is entitlement.

I don't like to be the talk of the forum. If someone is going to call me out or poke at me I'm going to react.
The amount of knowledge ones uses and helps it benefits everyone.
The picking on people for not being as articulate as you are is wrong.
So the actions shown shows content of there character. I may have been harsh on Dysonman I apologise.
Thanks again Tom. Everyone who stood up for us in this thread is appreciated. The people trying to belittle anyone shame on you.
Thanks
Les
 
all in all we appreciate all the help we got for the information on various vacuum and finally the manual lets all let the dust fall and happy vacuuming i do agree whit above post.
 
🤦‍♂️ "Aryan German Jew'

@kirbylux77 first of all you made me laugh so hard at dinner I almost choked on my food. So thank you take you for your ridiculously long statement of hate against me.
Calling me (person of Jewish descent) a racist Nazi Aryan it's so ironic &funny. I don't know what drugs you are doing up there in Canada but please keep them up there.
I'm still laughing about being called the "German Aryan Jew " as I write this .
you seem to crazed to understand that you've automatically been banned from interacting with my pages on Google,Facebook,Instagram and YouTube.

Your repeated hate mail ,the last one I got was about two weeks ago .I'll have to check my flag comments. You once again know nothing about me or would I do for a living.


Please stop wasting your time and stop attacking me over the internet on every platform you can. It's only a matter of time before you get banned from here as well. Next time you attack me I will doxx you, then report you for hate speech which is a crime in your country of Canada.
 
Robert Walton! Darling! You are still alive and active, how I missed you mother hen! I think you need to re read that message I sent you last year. There was nothing negative about it at all, as a matter of fact I still have the message. I delivered a promise to help Antoine and lee with their request and did so.
So Back off. If you have a problem message me directly since you still have the capability to do that via FB considering I haven’t blocked you after your last escapade with a certain someone who will remain nameless.

Antoine and Lee:

You are welcome. Now read that manual until you can’t read it anymore and enjoy, that manual was not easy to get to and some extensive digging needed to be done to get it.
Happy cleaning!
 
y Electroluxxxx

Lesinutah, Kirbylux77, Vacuumdevil and Tom

I am brand new to this site and have purposely avoided all social media: no Facebook, no Twitter, no Instagram, no YouTube channel. I am new to this vacuum cleaner collecting thing, too, as I have yet to make my first purchase. But I am dismayed by all of this vitriol and pettiness over something as stupid (and fun) as vacuum cleaners. I have never once commented on social media, but I could no longer just sit on the sideline as I now feel compelled to toss my two cents at someone.

Hey Lesinutah, just because Tom Gasko doesn't get back to you immediately is no reason to get your panties in a bunch. I also emailed Tom in late December and he did not respond until last Sunday night. Now, I could have freaked out and gotten upset, but I realized: (1) it's the holidays, (2) he's probably very busy running the Tacony museum and answering questions for us vacuum geeks and (3) I bet he has a life outside of vacuum cleaners (yes, that is possible). You’re lucky to have a guy like Tom putting up with everyone’s B.S. He’s probably forgotten more about vacuum cleaners than most people on this site will ever know. No, he’s not trying to hide valuable vacuum information from you. He’s just busy. Occam’s Razor, pal.

Hey Tom, I’m feeling your pain. Years ago, I founded, ran and played in a highly organized adult sports league. The peanut gallery drove me crazy to the point that I finally said “screw you guys” and left. Guess what happened? The league started to fall apart and the same idiots who constantly criticized me came crawling back on their hands and knees saying “please save us!" Hey everyone, driving Tom away would be a bad thing for Vacuumland, mkay?

And Kirbylux77, you crazy knucklehead. Don’t be dissing the Vacuumdevil! (I’m assuming he’s pals with the Robotdevil). As a fellow Hebrew National, I find it very disconcerting how you went from him being a Miele fanboy (that’s obvious given the Miele apron and T-shirt he wears on YouTube, or maybe he’s just trolling everyone, did you ever think of that?) to a racist Aryan German.

WTF? My neighbor has 5 Mercedes and he told me he would never own a Japanese car. Should I fear him, too? Doesn’t that make him a Nazi? Maybe I should punch him. Aren’t you supposed to punch Nazis? Isn’t that where this is going? I thought that’s what you’re supposed to do?

No, I’ve got a better idea: just calm down. You’re mouth is writing checks that you would absolutely not have the guts to cash in person. That’s why you step up the hyperbole because you feel so powerful while you hide behind your computer screen. I know, I’m using big words. If you want me to stop, I will.

Anyone who would be “disgusted" by vacuum cleaner comments on YouTube really needs to take a good look in the mirror. It’s just vacuum cleaners, bro. Part of the fun on this site is that everyone has a different personal connection to these machines. However, if someone doesn’t like your preferred brand or opinions on various vacuumology, then that’s no reason to lose your cool. For instance, I absolutely despise all Hoovers. That’s sure to piss off a bunch of people on this site, maybe even the Vacuumdevil himself. Are you going to hate me for that? Bring it on, I can take it!

And another thing, if you’re not Jewish, then don’t go around calling out people as anti-semites. You make us real Jews look bad when you overreact to commentary and try to label someone you don’t know and have never met as a racist Aryan German. And then you get it all wrong because he’s actually a Jew. Doh!!!

To Lesinutah and Kirbylux77, here’s my unsolicited advice: Take a deep breath, and step away from the vacuum cleaner. Next, go outside and look up. See that bright shining thing in the sky? It’s called the Sun. You need more of it. Clean air and exercise, that’s the ticket. And if you disagree with me, well then you can just KMSMA!
