If B = January - July 1977 how did I get this Classic III in December 1976? According to the list, serial #'s starting with B didn't start until January. Maybe reply #10 is the answer to my question?

Mike,
I can share with you when each Kirby machine first adopted Phillips head screws, and where applicable... Model 560 (1960-61): motor shell mounting screws (#10-24 x 3/4") Model 562 Sanitronic (1962-63): wheel screws (#10-32 x 3/8") Model Sanitronic VII (1963-65): front shaft clamp screws (#8-32 x 3/8") and front bearing plate screws (#8-32 x 5/16") Model Classic 1CR (1970-73): rear shaft clamp screws (#6-32 x 5/8") Model Classic Omega 1CB (1973-76): fan case to motor housing screws. First one to get the change was the long #10 screw (1-1/4" long) that secures the fan case to motor housing from the front; the other four #10 screws, all 5/8" long (three round head and one flat head) would change from slotted to Phillips in 1974. Model Tradition 3CB (1979-81): the short #6 screws that secure the headlight lens, vent seal and speed switch (#6-32 x 3/8") ~Ben |
