Recently got a Royal model 89135C from my local Habitat for Humanity Resale store for $12. Needed a vacuum but did not want a disposable plastic vacuum so I got this hoping it could last a long time by repairing as needed. I like the ease of serviceability. Where can I get a owners manual? What about parts like motor brushes? Is there a best place to get parts? These days most things are disposed of rather than fixing. Is it even possible to repair rather than replace?

Not going to find a manual or really a good place to find parts.
Ebay has brush rolls but make sure you know what your ordering.
The carbon brushes I'd go to a vacuum shop. The belts and type a and type b bags on ebay bags I'd go Amazon.
The vacuum is a commercial model and looks in excellent condition. This will last for a very long time.

GREAT FIND!sTOCK UP ON BRUSHROLLS AND MOTOR BRUSHES WHEN YOU FIND THEM AT VAC SHOPS.fOR THE MOTOR BRUSHES-A GOOD MOTOR SHOP CAN HELP.Sadly TTI has discontinued parts for these.A motor repair shop may be able to help as an alternative source for motor brushes.

Nice find!
I got a very similar one, but with the red bag for, I believe, $15 recently. I love the green though!
Mine just needed a good cleaning and a new disposable bag. I bought Type B Royal HEPA bags. I don't remember if I got them on eBay or Amazon.

Glad you picked up that Royal. Since I noticed it has a Stark's sticker on it, it's possible they got what you need for it. I'd say keep it instead of replacing it.

Woops, Time to Check the Bag!!!
Either you need to change your vacuum bag or you forgot to LOG-IN?
