Mystery Lewyt

[vacuumman]

This Lewyt vacuum was found at Los Angeles City College. It somewhat resembles a Lewyt 210, but it is gray and does not have a tool holder or a cord winder. I looked at the machine and I could not find a model number on it. Does anybody have any more information on this particular Lewyt? Any help would be appreciated.

A commercial version intended to mount on a janitor or maid cart?IE like with hotel/motel room cleaning the cart stays in the hall and the maid uses a long hose on the vacuum from the cart.

Its either a model 200 or model 220 - The instruction book mentions both but doesn't say what the differences are other than that the 210 was the delux model with a manual cord reel. It should have 2 large rear wheels like my model 210 pictured below. They were made in 1961

Wheels

Do you think that the wheels from a "Big Wheel" Lewyt would fit this machine?
