Any published Lux Service Manuals out there. I have checked from time to time depending on any rare issues I was having with my Luxes. Part of the value proposition with purchasing an Electrolux was the visiting Electrolux man to service any issues and supply bags (and, of course, to try to sell the latest model.) They very closely controlled the whole value chain. I remember calling Electrolux for service and the service guy serviced the machine right in my living room. The last thing they wanted was for the Electrolux customer to consort with an independent vacuum dealer who could steer you away from Electrolux. So, controlling the service information gave them power over their product. They closely controlled their product through their owned branch network. The fact of the matter is that they were not complicated machines and were serviced by independent vac shops. Electrolux just didn’t want to encourage wandering out of their world. When you think about it, the value proposition with Electrolux was very good.
You may try to contact Aerus about this information. I would be fascinated to hear if you get it from them. |

You could never get genuine Electrolux parts from aftermarket suppliers such as Hesco. I was a big customer of Hesco and they could generally supply original parts for most manufacturers. Not Electrolux. Electrolux closely controlled the supply chain. It continues today through Aerus. This is why I watch their parts supply to grab any before the supply dries up. My bad experience with an aftermarket hose for a friends 1205 confirms this. CLICK HERE TO GO TO Compactelectra's LINK |

Adding the pictorials to the schematic is even better! So, what does one have to do to get a legible copy of sections of the assumed-to-be large foldout? |

I did a quick scan of the Manuals section of the site - wasn't really looking hard, just checking it out - and I went through a few pages of service manuals and most are $5-$8, didn't see any over $10. It's pretty affordable and the funding goes right into the website.
Myself - I'd rather have the manual to hold in your hand (my workshop is also away from a PC) - but you take what you can get because they don't come up for sale on eBay much at all. |
