I have yet to post the restoration onto Vacland. Its a 32volt beauty.Here it is fully restored

"box at the left"?(97)

That would be the tank for liquid wax that hung at rear of polisher and had a pull chain to dispense wax to floor.Rarely found with the few B-6 that are found.

Re: Reply 100 Incredible work, Gareth! Did S. Africa Electrolux pair polishers and tanks like the US Electrolux did? If so, which tank(s) went with the B-6? Have you thought of starting a thread of S. African Electrolux polishers/shampooers like this one?

Re: Reply 101 Thanks, Jimmy!

Hi Keven

Thank you so much.I love restoring old worn out machines. I never got a tank with this one but I did with my B9 I bought. Its still in restoration as SOMEONE ( me ) Lost the box with the parts ( found it now )

Here is the tank

I Laughed when I turned it over now to see Charlie's Number 137 on the back

Re: Reply 34

You're welcome, Gareth. I like your B-9, too--and that tank is cool. I noticed that the B-9--unlike the B-6--had two brushes in the front and one in the back (like the US versions).

I just noticed on a current eBay listing from Canada for a jade/sand Model 2101 which has a cord winder unlike the one pictured in reply 34. So, I did some checking on the Electrolux Canada Shampooer/Polisher thread and discovered versions of both taupe machines--a Model 2101 and a Model 2101/WideTrack--also were equipped with cord winders; so that feature must have been an option on those machines. That wouldn't have been the case with the 2101As, though, because they were sold in stores, shows, or fairs instead of door to door.

I'm curious, then, if the Floor Pro series of shampooer/polishers' cord winders were optional? I don't remember ever seeing one without a cord winder (except the current line that comes with cord hooks and no cord winder option).

Hi Kevin

Yes its the wrong way around. I notice the the Brazil b12 which looks like a B6 but Chromed it to has its handle mounted the other was USA style
