you have three options.
1.a heritage I sani emtor which has the filltube but have a garish grey sani emtor. 2. finding a heritage II sani emtor and search for quite some time for a heritage II shakeout bag (both are VERY rare and extremely hard to find. it took me a year and a half to find both pieces and one came from kansas the other in a vacuum shop pick in fergerson, MO) 3. find am all metal sani emtor, lob the top off your mini emtor to the sani emtor shape (lots of sanding required here) and expoxy the mim emtor lid into the sani emtor top. welding will be entirely too hot for this aluminum and far beyond overkill. id go for no 3. if you want a bag setup albiet not an original sani emtor to that model. me personally i dont like kirby's paper bag system, even in the heritage series it restricts airflow too much and the classic III and later dump bags dont leak anyways. i looked for a year and a half to find the sani emtor and original dump bag for my heritage II because i wanted it for use to replace that stupid airflow restriction IE filltube/ paper bag |

Thank you gentlemen. One last question.......will all "newer/better" bags fit on H2 tube (currently using "Style 3")? If only some will fit, can you specify which ones should I get for this machine? |

Keep in mind there is a rear axle modification if you plan to go with the older metal sani-emptor.
Also, if you use the plastic sani-emptor, keep in mind that the airflow will be reduced if you use paper bags, so it's best to use the newer HEPA cloth filteret inner bags for maximum airflow and suction. These cloth HEPA bags fit both old and new style fill tubes.
