Electrolux Model 65 - England

Hello. Those floor tools in that video were for non-uk cleaners and I only ever saw them here on commercial cleaners and Swedish versions of UK models. The way the bag is fitted in the video is exactly how it should be, although some people I do know put the ring inside of it. There is no reason to clip the paper bag down as the moulding in the top of the cleaner is enough to hold the bag in place when closed down onto the dust bag. Although these machines were sold as higher specification, they were not quite as high spec as the machines which were paper bag only. They were considered to be the best that money could buy as paper bags were something of a luxury for many years.
 
Well I will have to thank you there Mr Repairer its been an education and a pleasure, I need some sleep, god knows what time Currys will have me up tommorrow morning when they deliver a new fridge freezer, tracker says between 6am and 10am 6am! REALLY i ask? ....

Hey Sandy:

To be quite honest I have NEVER seen one of the radiator brushes here at all. The only ones I have came with English machines. I know they were available as an option in Canada but I dont think they ever brought them in in our area.

As for the crevice tools if you look at the Canadian and English ones they have a raised ribbing on the hose end while the US one is smooth with the name Electrolux raised out of it in the same place.

Mattopesin US2

what is that all about? and what is connected to the blower/exhaust port on the cleaner? is it some kind of shampoo attachemnt or is it a powerhead rotated by the exhaust air?
 
Mattopesin US2

Yes, it is a carpet washer with dry washing powder. This same product sold also with Electrolux D720 model but it looks different.

Markus so how does it work? it appears that the exhaust connection thing and the white tube dont connect to the floor head?

Is it a kind of sprayer for the dry powder?

what did the floor head do ?

I dont think we had those over here, wow!
 
Mattopesin US2

There is a tank for washing liquid and exhaust air makes to foam. There is two brush on bottom. When the foam is dry you can vacuum the carpet.

Thanks for posting the scans of the borochures, really interesting to see (as usual). Do you have one of the Mattopesin US2 that you could show us.

Also the powerhead nozzle - I think our American and Canadian friends woudl be interested to see it and how it compares with their own. We, in the UK, had nothing of the kind so its very interesting to see
