Hi everyone, here is my 90's Henry that I got a few days back off eBay for £29, what a bargin! It is all original except for the cuff on the hose, it is the longer, newer style, it should have the shorter one. It is in excellect condition, the motor in this machine runs fantastically, it has a very quite 1000w max motor.
I gave this machine a good clean, it didn't need it at all but I always do it with every "new" vacuum I get...Old habbits die hard, I guess. Here it is anyway. |

Made in the 11th week of 1993 in Beaminster, Dorset...The new ones are made in Chard, Somerset, I presume these older ones were made in a different factory (is that a blond question?) lol.

I like this one alot better than the twin pedal ones you get with Henry's now, I feel it does a better job...for a cylinder. This floor tool is actually made in Germany.

They used the bold writing from 1981 till about 1996/97 and then they used the coloured outline writing, needless to say these uesd a slightly different motor than the earlier 90's models but still had the power head socket and in about 1999 they changed it to the white ouline writing and that used a single speed, single fan, higher pitch (James) type motor with no power nozzel socket, those motors were 1100 watts and in 2004 - present they used the 1200 watt twinflo motors.

The Turbo Electric head shown in the eBay listing won't work with this particular cleaner unfortunately. It's actually intended for use with later Numatics that have the 24 volt power take off system, identifiable by a "figure 8" style socket on the front of the motor unit.
Models with the red socket on the back use a 240 volt power head, something Numatic no longer offers. However, it would be easy to source a suitable head elsewhere. I'm thinking perhaps a Filter Queen power nozzle could be rigged with an adaptor to fit the Henry 32mm tubes, and rewired with the appropriate length of cable and a plug to fit this machine. A Vorwerk power nozzle could probably be made to work as well. If you search eBay Germany there are adaptors available which convert Vorwerk fittings to accommodate standard round tubes. After a little creative (but safe, please) wiring, you'd have a great power head that would match your green Henry quite nicely. Vorwerk bits and pieces are as common as dirt in Germany, and therefore tend to be rather cheap even with postage. |

Joe - It is, yeah, I like those sharp, crisp, snaps when you switch it between on and off. Benny - Thanks for the info, I forgot that Numatic had the history section on their website. Rutger - Sorry, I hope this doesn't offend you or anyone else but every time I glance at your username, I keep thinking it says rug muncher, lol! Thanks though! :D Alex. |

it's been lavished all of it's life and been very pampered, unlike most Henrys. It's not to say it hasn't been used, i've just made sure it's always been very well looked after lol |

Thekirbylover that's a great collection & picture of your Numatics. You also have a Numatic David ! That vacuum is the holy grail for me (i've probably more chance of locating the holy grail to be honest than finding one of those !!) Cheers Dave |
