Hoover 63 and High Performance Convertible Question

[thevacuumman]

1. Could i use a Convertible belt on a Hoover 63

2. What would be a suitable replacement for the bag and the bellows on a Hoover 63

And 3. Is it possible to put a metal fan on a Convertible High Performance motor

Cant answer 3 but.....

1. No they are far too small- I believe the larger 918 type belts are NLA over there so your best bet would be one from a Eureka/Sanitaire.

2. As the bellows are defiantly NLA on both sides of the pond you either need a scrap machine or a shake out bag from a commercial machine using the same bag fixing.

3. Probably not???

I looked at a part sheet on hesco and it said the belt was a convertible belt
