Handi Butler wanted

[jfalberti]

to use on my Classic Omega.  Anything from the Omega through the Tradition will work as long as it is complete.  If anyone has one they'd like to sell, let me know how much you would like for it, and how much shipping, and I'm sure we can work something out.


 


Thanks in advance!

I'm going to look in storage today for the store and see if I have one Joe!

Found one!

I found a Handi Butler to fit my Sanitronic VII.. It looks to be brand new and it had a great price. Can't wait for it to arrive. It looks like a model that would have been sold with a 500 series machine.

Would anyone happen to have

an older user manual for a pre-classic Kirby with the instructions for the older Handi Butler?  I've looked online, but no luck.


 


Thanks,

Put me and Joe (jfalberti) on the list for Handi-Butler belts (part no. 405058). I'd love to get a baker's dozen or more of these.

I sent this message to Kirby

This is what I sent.

I was a proud Kirby Dealer for several years in the early 80s, and one of my selling points was that no matter how old you're Kirby is, Kirby still has parts for it. I'm sad to find that this is not true. I have several model Kirby's with the Handi Butler for each. I also have friends with HBs and now we can no longer get something as simple as a belt for it. I use my Butlers extensively, and can no longer do so because I can't get a belt. I've contacted all distributor ships in my area and no one has any. Is there any thing we can do?

Lets see what they say, if anything.

Joe
