I think it's a D50 with D80 trim, and a wrong bag, which would explain why the ID plate has been ripped off, cos it'll be a D50 motor (look at the handle lock button, it's tan!!)... |

Or it could be a Model 562, the first Sanitronic. The Sani-Emtor is from a 562. You can tell because it has the flare for the Sweet-Aire plug. It's just not drilled out. That flare was dropped after the 562. That would explain the handle lock button too, which I think is actually Coppertone in color. That was the color unique to the 562 only. We'll never know unless we can see the safety switch!

FrankenKirbys built up by vac shops--Machines made to sell to USERS rather than collectors-and use up Kirby parts from their junk box.The removal of the ID plate--BAD WORKMANSHIP on the vac shops part-or was it removed by a prior owner-or was the machine stolen? |
