Here are two comparison shots of my Kirby Dual Sanitronic 80 and Classic III.

It is true the Classic III sits up higher at the front than the D80.

My question is: will using the 131673S toe-touch axle, which is on my Classic III, raise the front of my D80 even with double narrow wheels (a la American-Lincoln Super-Sweep)?

Thank you,



Benjamin "Ben" Edge

Why? Did you need more clearance for that 500505 brush roll?

Ray,

You could say that, of course I am experimenting. I want more control over height.

As it is currently, all Kirbys from the 516 up to the D80 only need one or two clicks down from the number 8 position to contact the kind of carpets I'm vacuuming.
