Hi everyone,
I just got another HVC200, it was advertised as 'non-working' on Ebay, so I decided to buy it and try and get it working. It had no flex, so I fitted one (not in pictures) and it worked, but the bearings sound really bad! So I'm not planning on using it anytime soon. I've dated it to about 1985, it has no handle sadly, and I think it's been used bagless for most of it's life, hence the bearing issues. Thanks, - Joe |

Great! I think you should have gotten that NV200 you said you were going to get! At least you have the original base for your good one now! Hope you get the bearings sorted! George:) |

I'm not too sure but I was told that using WD-40 isn't good to use- I thought that was crazy! |
