Here is the cloth dirt bag after a quick cleaning (with another vacuum cleaner). The cloth grab strap at the rear end is still solid.

They sell decent generic hoses on eBay for as low as $20. I bought one for my Electrolux Model 30 and it works well. You could also check with your local Aerus dealer to see if they have a hose.

Thanks for the link, with vacuum cleaners that old, it is probably the only hoses that could be useful. As for the cloth bag, I'd like to clean it a bit more, is it okay to soak it in hot water with an all purpose liquid soap ? | ||

Don't use soap. Just use water. Soap will loosen the fabric, allowing more dust through the pores in the bag. The best option is to get a new bag. The new bags filter much better than the old ones. However, if you want to use the original bag, a light rinse probably won't hurt it

I'm not an expert on the Canadian Aerus Electrolux machines. I'm only an expert on the American Aerus Electroluxes, as I live in the USA. If the ZB55 is anything like the American Electrolux Model XXX, then here's a cord that will work with it.

Thanks again, I'll try to source these items here in Canada, there is a company named JohhnyVac in Montreal, I'll ask them first about a hose, a cord and a bag. I know there is another supplier of Elux parts in Calgary, if I don't have success with either of them , I'll order on your side of the border. | ||
