Ok Curiosity has the best of me. Just came across this on ebay and, although I can see its definately a Kirby part, I have no clue what it is. Anyone know this one???

Hello Doug.
Fred is correct, that is the dirt meter that was used for demoing the machine for customers. That may be used on the Kirbys from the 516 thru the Legend II. The filters for it, we buy in bulk lots of 5,000. However, years ago if we ran out of them while out in the 'field' & were a distance from the office, then we would sometimes stop by a store that carried farm products & pick up milk strainer pads to use. There was a 90° adapter elbow that we used with them, before the 'new style' dirt meter came out for the "G" models. Cheers & hagd all, Bill |
