You could get one of these replacement cords. I might get one of my 541 just to be safe.

Wow! I hope you realize how very lucky you are! Those bags are probably the hardest of all old vacuum bags to find intact!

If the fan is like my 541 and 700, you put a screwdriver in the slot on the motor shaft. Then you can twist the belt pulley and then the fan to loosen them. I believe it unscrews in the direction the motor spins.

Whatever you do, save the bag. Even if its in shreds you can always use it for patterns down the road.

Good luck!
