An Aunt of mine had one of those in the early 1970s,,same color and all. I remember her's had a Hi/Lo toggle switch on the back, near the cord winder. Was an excellent vacuum and lasted many yrs. I think the hose finally gave out, and she was told by Sears there was no replacement, so she trashed it, and bought a new one. GRRR

some oil makes! At least in the Powermate head! I was surprized how "user friendly" the motor was. Very accessable, no tricks. I oiled the bearings and the beater bar bearings. Big difference. The brushstrips are worn down, but I notice that they are of the replacable type. Any ideas where I could get some? Next I'll see if the main motor is as friendly to get to and service. Guy |
