Hi carlDlux:
I assume you mean getting access to the motor, not how to get to the bag chamber.
Start at the blower end, if it's a model G that would be the cord winder end. There are a series of screws, remove them, pop out the winder and there's the motor. I'm into the history of Electrolux, but there are others here who are experts at repair, assembly and disassembly who can walk you through this step by step. I'm sure somebody will chime in later today. To access the bag chamber, there is a button on top of the machine where the hose plugs in. Depress it and the cover pops open. Removing the bag chamber is not my thing, again there are experts who can tell you how to do that too. Alex Taber. | ||

could the model H the OP mentioned be the cream colored Electrolux G hospital edition with that crazy filter on the end? | ||

There is no Electrolux model H that I'm aware of. The Hospital model G was still a model G.
I sure hope that many hours of experience is obtained before asking anyone to pay money for "sales/service" on Electrolux vacuums. It would take me at least a week of 8 hour days to TEACH someone the ins and outs of the Electrolux motors. Not to mention how to diagnose the models with circuit boards. A business license would have to be obtained to order repair parts from the wholesalers. To properly rebuild and sell Electrolux cleaners, would require a good investment of time and money. Not to mention liability insurance. If a rebuilt machine caught fire in someone's home or burned their carpet, or whatever - a lawsuit could ruin a person with no insurance. | ||
