Hi, The other week I was offered this as long as I paid for the postage...
Well it arrived today. A earlier version of the Hotpoint Light N Easy:o) I've already gave it a quick clean up. The bearing need regreasing and the zip doesn't unzip. I'm not sure I can unzip it with out breaking the zip. I would like to empty the paper bag inside it and put in a new one. Any ideas how to get in to it with out damaging the zip?? But I do like it. Still some work to do on it. Hope you like some of the pictures I've took of it. James:o) |

Hi Paul...
I couldn't find a candle in the end so I used some oil on the zip left it and put a small amount of grease the thread as well. Only small amounts... Then a bit of wiggling;o) I'm glad it's got it's got a new paper bag in it. It had a very old genuine Hoover bag in it that had fell to bits. So I vacuumed out the outer bag:o) All clean now:o) James:o) |
