Un-amazing trash find

[jodan3399]

Was excited when I saw it, until I got a little closer and saw the bolts sticking up. Ugh.

Not sure what I'm doing with it yet, power head is powerless (motor probably shot, reset didn't do nothing)...will probably take that apart later and look...really similar to the one on my Tri-Star it seems. Cord is shot...and should I mention the rewind doesn't work? LOL

Sears canister

Not a bad vac for the money(if new),great vac for trash find.Better than most but the high dollar canisters.Cordwinder failure at contacts is fairly common.I first thought the bolts were to hold down cover but now see they are the 'new'cord wrap.You may like it as a second or third vac,but could always get money for the hose even if the whole outfit ends up with problems.Keep on dumpster diving or being a recycling specialist or being GREEN or whatever!
