Ok Spats, here you go. You'll need a large and small flat screwdriver to do this. Get your Convertible taken apart down this far... |

The speed switch is held in place by a small flat screw. Remove the screw and set it aside. |

Lift up the speed switch and remove the motor mount screw that holds the speed switch bracket in place. This screw is the only motor mount screw that will have a little washer on it |

This is what you should have: The screw and bracket, and the speed actuator(hockey stick) |

Is two spacer/washers, and a sleeve. The washers come off first, then pull the sleeve out. |

Jeff it appears your in the midst of restoring this cleaner's paint as well, but I notice the bag is yet another variation of the 1076/728 design. What model is this? |

As Tom said, thats a full hood model U4007 from 1973. I chose that model because its the same as the one spats has, and had the questions about. |
