Hi this is my Dyson DC07 Standard I got today, It seems to be hardly used and have everything nearly new on it! It also has the circle plug with it aswell!

Its more powerful than I thought and expected, I vacuumed downstairs and got approx 3/4 of a bin full! or half

The Dyson looks like an early model DC07 from 2001, as I can only just make out the ID plate doesn't say made in Malaysia, and they were all made there after 2002.
The early DC07's made in the UK also had the round plugs, but also had the old style mark 1 cyclone systems which clogged up easily, so it would pay you to remove the top handle occasionally and check for clogs around the tops of the cyclones. Later models were de-rooted so the clogging was less of a problem.

Its a nice early example that's been well kept - but take care with it, as the early ones become very brittle with age!

Also, the pre motor filter housing looks like its missing its black rubber seal, which goes over the central section, and presses against the back of the housing.

You can see the seal in this picture, it stops dirt escaping up the pressure relief tube and getting into the motor.

Cool! Lol and you had to picture the Argos vac. I had one of these dysons in for a repair once, the cyclone was packed with crap! Anyway it looks like a great dyson, where did you get it from?
I'm sure you'll love it, I have the newer origin one, and used to have the animal and 2 allergys, but only got this one left!

Also madabouhoovers is right, your missing the seal in the filter casing.

Okay

 Steve:- Thank you so much, I actually remember that seal but Didn't notice it being missing, Thanks mate :) No wonder the suction release valve goes off quicker than the other DC07's I had.

Dysondestijl:- Nice Dysons! better than mine lol Our DC04 only needed a new wand cap but I replaced it with a replacement proper one :)
My previous DC07 standard had the main cyclone (the long tube in the middle) all jam packed with fine dust! I had no bagged vacuum apart from Dysons that time so I had to take it outside with the big bin and a very long drill piece and had to push and scoop it out.

The central dirt tube in the cyclone bin often got blocked, as people only pulled the trigger and let the outer bin empty, without checking the central tube, where dirt would get compacted and stuck together - thus not emptying when the bottom flap was dropped. Eventually this central tube would get so full it would stop the dirt from exiting the cyclone cones, and block up the pre-motor filter constantly. People would not realise why the filter was getting clogged so quickly, and often throw the cleaner out, thinking it faulty.

Thinking about it, I'm not sure whether the very early models had that black seal on them, it may have been fitted as a modification at a later date, possibly if the post motor filter was getting blocked by dirt escaping the pre-motor filter up the relief valve tube. Don't hold me to that though. I've had a few DC07's where that seal was missing, and they are very cheap to buy on EBay.

Whether the seal is fitted or not, it makes no difference to the pressure at which the relief valve opens.

Thank you for the complements guys, I am very OCD One of the reasons I don't like bagged vacuums is the dust just sitting there festering ( my opinion and your welcome to yours ) I clean out my dyson after each use ( dc42 your dc40) once you get into the habit of it is so easy and fast.I take out the brush roll and clean off all the threads and everything.

Post# 212840 , Reply# 32   1/6/2013 at 02:02 (4,127 days old) by madabouthoovers ()        

But Parwaz - the Dco7 Standard that you show us is the same as the DC07 Origin - its just the Origin is the later version, with a bit less yellow on it, but essentially they are both the same - base models with clutchless brushrolls for carpets only. The Origin models are more powerful on carpets and have a more substantial cylindrical brushroll as opposed to the helical one found on the multifloor clutched models.
I would strongly recommend you replace the brushroll belt on your new DC07, as if its the original one, it will have stretched with age, and will be likely slipping when used on carpet, leading to premature burning and failure.

Yea I agree a new belt and brush roll will make a huge improvement

Thanks Steve again :) I thought the Origin had a later Cyclone aswell? I knew I should have bought the Origin, but I have noticed this Brushbar on my DC07 looks brand new but is soft! is that supposed to be like that? my DC04 silver lime has purple bristles on a black brushroll

No the bristles should be stiff they get soft with age.
