Disassembled and drying off. The motor and fans were actually very clean.

The motor is stamped with the date February 28, 1997.

ALL CLEANED UP! She is much happier now. I present to you the Filter Queen Majestic Triple Crown (65th Anniversary Edition).

Assembly... Just snap on the Hoover adapter...

Next... Attach a power nozzle wand that has a snap connector (for lack of a better term). Here I just grabbed a Rainbow wand but you can use the older Eureka wands, etc.

Next... Attach the friction fit adapter to the other end of the wand...

Next Finally, attach the Filter Queen hose to the friction fit adapter (I fits perfectly and holds well). Here is the complete picture. It really is "rigged" up but fun to use.

Logan, Great "rigging"! I would venture to guess that lots of us do that . And, as you said, you get a super vac. Fred S. showed me how to put my Air-Way p/n on my Compact Electra and that makes a wonderful combination. I'll know my Mar. schedule on 2/13 and then we can plan something. Plan on making lots of creative combinations! | ||

Hey Rick a friend gave me that adapter years ago and I am not sure where he got it from. I've been doing some searches on the Internet and can't find them anywhere. Sorry! Does anyone else here know where you can get these? | ||

Logan, great find on the FQ, Thanks for the tips on the power Nozzle adaptor. I was just about to ask if you know where to get them? So you'll let us know when,where and if you find out any info. Norm | ||
