Hi,

How difficult would it be to change out from the single-speed safety switch/motor assembly on any Kirby from the model 515 (1955-56) to the Sanitronic VII (1963-65) to the two-speed motor assembly/safety switch used on the Dual Sanitronic 50/80?

Have any classic Kirby kings who owned any such Kirbys from the 515 to the S7 ever made a successful attempt to do this?

Thank you,



Ben Edge
