Hi all, just bought a 1521, looks good, sounds good. The cord reel is a bit flaky. But I will take it apart to see if there is anything wrong and possibly just powder it.

This morning I started to take it apart and noticed something odd (to me).
After removing the top, I observed the hose, which usually comes out of the body and attaches to the cord reel housing, is missing.

I looked inside the best I could with a flashlight, but nothing. I imagine I would have to remove the motor to look inside.

So the question is, did this model still use that hose? I would like to avoid taking it apart further only to discover this is not used on this model.

Your thoughts?

Cordwinder hose--

--was to allow cooling air to winder if motor overheated due to clogged hose and was dropped when thermostat was added to motor.

So...Jimmy..

are you saying that there is no need for the cooling hose for this model vacuum?
