Was this that red 2 speed on ebay? Is the filter the big huge black one? Or the little grey one? If you dont have allergies that are bad, I would ditch the filter... |

Is there a reason why Tristar Canada is preferable? Bill |

What is the selector switch on the power nozzle for? Does it change airflow/suction? Bill |

The Tristar Canada site is set up better. Each part has an actual photo, whereas the US site doesn't. That helps. Bill |

Check your email - I found your email to me, and I have a TriStar part I think you might be able to use. |

Any one want to tell me what that little "c e" stands for in the corner of that Tristar sticker? I've seen that on so many things but haven't a clue what it is. Rick |

The "CE" stands for "Conformité Européenne", meaning that the vac conforms to applicable standards for the European market. It's a bit like our UL mark. |

This one shows the underside of the rug tool; you can see the large air intake slots that allow it to glide over carpeting. |

IMHO, the Compact or Tristar floor tool is one of the very best!! I use it on most all of my machines including the Beam Central Vac. |

This is what the cord looks like. The crevice area where the clip goes is what's cracking. CLICK HERE TO GO TO methodistbill's LINK |
