Beautiful machine, Tommy!
That powerhead looks something like a cross between an Osprey and a Tecnica. Was this actually made in-house by Nilfisk?
I, too, have a Nilfisk GS90 with the powerhead, but it's the standard North American Eureka Sweep N Groom with VG3 roller. I haven't had the opportunity to really use it as the vacuum motor has a short in the armature...

Hi, well this is a very common european commercial power nozzle, in this specific case it hasn't been made by Nilfisk but by DUPRO AG, a swiss company that I couldn't find anymore but as many other companies use that type of pn for canisters and 2motor uprights over here I think there must be a factory very close to me... and as I have another pn like that, which is literally loosing all the blades of the cooling fan making it very noisy, I'm going to try and locate a dealer.
However US nilfisks had a household pn system that included electrified hose, wands and an "eureka" pn, we never had anything like that, a nilfisk canister with pn has got to be PERMANENTLY with pn cause the power cord runs around the wands and the hose to attach to the moto unit....
However i love Nilfisks... It takes less to use a SEBO FOR CARPET CLEANING THAN TRANSFORMING THE GM 90 !!!!

Tommy,Great machine!Love the att holder.We had some in US that were promoted by allergy type catalogs(or anti allergy).--first US Elux power nozzle cord was 1 piece,but easily removable to change atts.--From previous post,what was manufactured in your families building?Not to be nosy but manufacturing & architecture are of interest.Thanks to this club I have seen Elux,Filter Queen & Kirby factories.Each with different type buildings & manufacturing process but all with quality product coming out the back door.Europe seem so different with terrazo floors & slate roofs that can last 1000 years and here it seems we think a 50 yr old building should be torn down or remodeled beyond recognition.Happy vacuuming,Jimmy
