Today is the day I finally got my hands on a commercial duty vacuum with a 3-wire cord! Meet my 1987 Royal 662.

Excellent find! I got my first one last year too, but slightly newer. I believe its a 1994 or 1997 Royal and in green. They are impressively strong vacuums!

This one, I got for free!

Not only does this have the 3-wire cord, it is also 50 feet long!

Nice Find Ben!

Looks nice but will look better after you give it a good polishing! Can't beat the price, and with a build date in 1987, I'm also assuming it doesn't scream! Congrats on a nice find,
Jeff

Jeff,

I do want to spruce up this machine before I put it into action.

And yes, this machine still has its original six-blade fan.

Thank you,



Ben (KirbyClassicIII)
