Been working on the Electrolux CB's in my collection today so I thought I'd post some pictures. Still need pieces for some of them as you can see but they are in pretty decent shape.
First up is the blue and silver CB - I believe the dates of manufacture were 1969-1973 (Please correct me if any of these dates are wrong)at which point the motor housing was changed slightly to accommodate the new, larger, (Super J) motor and the power nozzle connection was changed.

Next up is the modified version of the blue/silver CB (1975-1977) featuring the larger motor housing which accommodated the new motor and the new power nozzle connection.

Picture #3 has the first hook up for the P/N3 and Picture # 1 & 2 is the wire hook up for P/N 4C. The P/N 3 was the commercial version of the P/N 2. | ||

Oh, thanks, John. I'd heard about a PN-3 before but have never seen one--or at least I don't think I have. I'm wondering if that is the one in Doug's first pic above? What power nozzle model would the aqua and tan CBs used? | ||

Afraid the powernozzles have all been rebuilt so it isn't the original bases on them and, therefor, not the original numbers. The first one is a PN1 and the second, third and fourth are PN4's and the CB2000 has a PN5
Everything up to the Blue/Silver CB used the PN1 but with a metal elbow and wands instead of the plastic wand. They also used a standard outlet for the power nozzle up until the motor cover was changed in 1975 to accommodate the new, larger, Super J style motor. The PN2 (PN3??) was available with both the standard plug and the new 3 pin plug on cords as options. After that an adapter was available to change the new plug to the standard plug for older machines. Doug | ||

Well Doug the cord for the CB in 1968 only cost $10.50 and not $40.00. The complete Powerhead and cord was $69.75. The CB cost $169.75 for the Galvanized body. The Vinyl hose was 17.50, wet pick up unit was $49.95 and the painted body was $149.75. | ||

Kevin , the hose were vinyl and 10 ft. long. Most all the hoses were grey. And to give you a heads up on the CB 2000 here is a cutaway of one. The motor used Super J armature, the motor mount was similar to L and that's it.
