Numatic Wendy

ultimatevacman · Nov 25, 2012

Hi, I have heard that numatic made a vacuum exclusive to machine mart, called wendy,

Apparently it's basically an NV250 in green with a face and "Wendy" written in bold black writing on the top,

Has anyone got any photo's of it?

if you do then please share them! I would really appreciate it!

Cheers,

- Joe

Not sure if it was an exclusive to machine mart,
but yes it was a green NV250 style machine, and I beleive was the first Numatic to be given a name.
I have a picture somewhere in the depths of my pc.

Not a great picture I'm afraid, only one I have ever seen.
Was located in Ireland, but they would not post it

numatic wendy

Hi I have just obtained a Wendy it is in excellent condition does anybody know when it was produced

Hi I thought I would take a few pics of Wendy and share them with you all. I had not realised these machines were a bit different to usual henry type Numatics. The filter is a two part construction and the motor cover is totally different to any Numatic I have ever worked on. As you can see the canister is very clean I have never seen a used metal canister machine with such a clean and un scratched bottom.
