Hey
I posted a while back on a thread commenting on a power Force vacuum. Someone said they have 12 amp drop in motors for the Everlast and probably other royal vacuums.
I was wondering where to find the 12 amp drop in motors. If anyone has a link it would be appreciated.
I know royalaire royal/Hoover have a 12 amp.motor for plastic vacuums and backpackpack/cannister vacuums. I'm looking for all metal upright 12 amp.
Thanks probably Ben in advance

Les,

The Royal Everlast all-metal upright drop-in motor assemblies are rated 10 amps, not 12.

Is there any 12 amp motors for any metal uprights?

Les,

As far as I know, no.

Royal 10 amp Drop-in motor...

I believe the 10 amp Drop-in motor is the most powerful motor Royal makes. I own a Royal Everlast 8300 with the 10 amp Drop-in motor and it is plenty powerful and also plenty loud as well.


 


My Royal Everlast deep cleans carpet better than my Kirby Sentria. I cannot imagine that the Royal Everlast would deep clean any better if it had a 12 amp motor.

Hey

Thanks for info.
I had a royal 1030z that had the 10 amp motor. I sold it to a member on here. I tested my sentria and got 133 cfm. The royal tested at 141 142 some where around there.
I never used it much. I fixed the bag and got new brushroll shortly after I sold it. I had my 880 running at the time and the 1030 seriously ate up rugs. I have alot of area rugs it would get within a few inches and sheer Force of the brush roll would suck them in and up. I even tried highest setting on height adjustment but to no avail.
The 10 amp royal motor is a high performance motor.

I think the 5700 upright I was given has the 7 amp motor and its a beast. You can't use it on area rugs very easily either. The 4650 canister you can turn down the motor speed which helps, but the Compact C9 I have does them nicely as it's powerful but head is smaller and not quite as much suction.

Terry,

My 1994 Royal 9100 Preferred Collection edition upright has the exact same 7.0 amp (non-drop-in) motor assembly, which is also indicated by the carbon brush ports on both sides of the motor housing (and the rear oil port).

Hey
The 235 I cleaned it tried polishing it. The fan has a small piece missing and the carbon brushes are done. The brush roll is gone so is the belt. U was wondering if you have part numbers.
I used a power sprayer on the body once everything was taken apart and no electrical left in it. I tried buffing but it has sort of a copper petina. It's rather off but maybe someone can exkolain. It could be added metal since it's 1949.

Les,

Being a 1949-53 model, I would guess the original brush roll likely had open ends on it (a la the Kirby 505 to 512).

It has the plastic square black caps. One side has half the cap broke off. I may use another royals soleplate and brush roll.

Hey
I called 3 royal dealers. I'm having 2 look for 880 fan 235 fan 235 brush roll 235 carbon brushes. I also inquired from royal/Hoover directly via website as they are closed today. I looked up part number but i wasn't finding anything.

Hey

The brush roll from my other royal fits it. The carbon brushes we're missing springs I used adhesive put those on. The fan i used jb weld and a makeshift mold hopefully that will fix the fan. If all works I'll try it tomorrow.

Metal

I asked Kent oyler about the color of metal. He says it looks like adoninized aluminum. It stops it from corrosion and rusting. The only rusted part was soleplate. The soleplate snaps on the nozzle.
The petina reminds me of the 1940s Hoover vacuum.
It feels like the non stick frying pans. I wiped all the polish compound and it's shines but not aluminum like the side of a dime color. Weird.
