What is this for

[kirbysthebest]

My Aunt had one simular to this for her Central Vac. It had the long cord, because the system originally was suction only.

Later when they built their new house they had the wiring all done where it is in the hose and you only have to lug the hose around.

That's really a beautiful object -- a splendid specimen of industrial design.

Luv It!!! Brilliant!!!

Same engineering idea as the Compact. Delightful. Now I want a Kenmore Powermate Nozzle. LOL

Kenmore Powermate Nozzle

The best part about your nozzle is that you did not have to sell your kidney to win it, and better still it will actually work still on whatever you use it with becasue it has all the bristles on the brushroll mandrel.

Many moons back at a small vac shop I used to haunt, I was fortunate enough to try one of these machines that were in for repair. It needed to be cleaned and a belt, and the vacuum worked just beautiful. If I rememebr correctly it was the Horizon version as it was a two-speed vac.

IT did and okay job cleaning, but the old lady that owned it would have NONE of my advances to purchase it. She probably had that thing buried with her in her "casketcondo". I was crestfallen of course. Now I see that Fred has one and hopefully someday i will get to see it in person. His looks simply wonderful...

On another note, a very die-hard Compact'er wanted that nozzle for his machine. I realize that it's rare but..whew!!!
$549.95...I could buy SEVERAl collectibles for that amount and still have pocket change...LOL

I just looked at the bottom plate and it lists all of the models you can use it with. The P/N itself it model 116-9900

and is for use with vacuum models 8622,8641,8650,8661,8681,9620,9630,9631,9640,9660 and 9680.
So what are these models? Does anyone have them???
