Sanitaire S490A -- Original Power Nozzle?

[kirbyclassiciii]

Does anybody remember what power nozzle came with the Sanitaire S490A canister?

Was it the Roto-Matic Power Team style with the Vibra-Groomer II, or the Express Power Team style with the Vibra-Groomer III?

Express style. Do you have an S490A?

No, but I was asking this to help someone else. Thank you!

I have one but when I went to disassemble it to clean it a bunch of brass wire connectors broke as I was ever so gently taking it apart and now I don't know what wire goes where to put it back together. If your friend ever takes his apart I would sure like some images of how it is wired so I can get mine back together properly. It has been sitting on a dresser mocking me for two years now, as if to say "hey dummy, when ya gonna get me up and running again?" Can't find a wiring diagram for it anywhere so hoping someone somewhere might be taking one apart so I can see how it supposed to be wired up.

I messed up Ben. The brain cell fired later tonight. The S490 came with a gray Vibragroomer with blue Sanitaire script.

I am trying to picture the Sanitaire S490. Does someone have a picture of the cleaner and the power nozzle? And was it an Express power nozzle?

Brian,

FWIW, here's a pack of disposable bags for this model.

By the illustration, it appears to have had the older-style Roto-Matic Power Team nozzle with the VGII.

I know…I saw that…but the bags are made in Sweden….which means it’s not a regular American Eureka Bloomington design…the only European made Sanitaire canister I ever saw was a rebranded AEG canister married to an Express Power Nozzle….but I think that was made in Germany - it had two doors on the sides to store the tools including a European radiator brush.
