Does this vac convert suction from floor>tools when handle is upright or do U have to disconnect/connect it? | ||

You flip the switch in the lower right corner and a cheap flexible plastic piece cuts the suction of going to the brushroll and diverts it to the hose. ~Darren | ||

And btw Kyle, I realize your a very ambitious collector, and therefore you probably want to find the whole "Sea Foam Green" set. However, if you were to ever sell this machine, i would be an instant buyer for sentimental reasons. ~Darren | ||

As stated above, I had the red classic also. I had no idea they made a black one also??? Did it pretty much look just like the classic and the extra hp? And, it's really bugging me... What does "HP" stand for???!!! ~Darren | ||

Darren HP stands for High Performance. So it mean Extra High Performance. They made this in Red, Black, Green, Burgundy, and Dark Green. | ||

Thanks, Kyle. Was each color the same name or did they each have there own name? Such as red classic, light green extra high performance? Or was there a lineup of extra hps that were sold in those colors? | ||

Tools/Floor switch I remember a Dirt Devil that U flip the switch from full-width cleaning to edging only; was that the earlier Deluxe series? | ||

@Floor-A-Matic Correct me if I am wrong, but yes I believe the earlier Deluxe series had that edge cleaning/full width switch. The Classic and other similar models simply have the one switch that goes between the floor mode and hose mode. ~Darren | ||

Darren, I believe the brushes are worn. My Green Dirt Devil Plus and my Black Dirt Devil 500 both do that. And I don't know about the scraping noise. Here is a pic of my green Dirt Devil Plus Handvac.

Thankyou thankyou thankyou! Haha I just love that color! Is brush replacement on these models fairly easy, or should I just find another red handheld? There is always one at the local goodwill :) . | ||
