When I was with Elux in 80s,90s a regional service manager advised to just remove them when seen on older models. |

Thank you for the replies! Kirbyklekter, I think I will go ahead and disconnect the capacitors on both XXX vacuums. Yikes! - Chris |

Nice work, Chris, and glad you were able to locate the year stamps; it's more satisfying to know an appliance's production year rather than a span just as it is identifying those of vehicles. |

Thank you, Paul! It's interesting how long Electrolux kept making the XXX. I guess that really proves how popular it was! |

Model XXX was sold from 1937 to 1954. When the LX came out, the XXX became a lower-tier model until the Model E came out in late 1954. It was sold for a longer period of time than any other model. Here are some random photos I came across while searching for a particular image that I -finally- found!! |
