Haven’t seen that model in forever I remember my five year-old self vacuuming our apartment with that model. good times and a very good machine

How do you get the back wheel unhinged? Need to use the back wheel for another tractor.

I can't tell but is that the same color green as the green Dimension?

I remember seeing one of these at Mike’s Sweeper Center when I was young.

Excellent

Thank you

We have a kenmore Elite vacuum cleaner and the brush are not working, I have a new bag in it.

I'm so so glad I found this video omg. It was difficult to find a replacement deck belt for my 20+ years old lawn tractor and after replacing it the blades would just constantly turn even in the blades stop position. I was about to call it quits when I found out about this trick, I had to do it the other way around as my problem was too much tension on the belt but after tightening this rod to it's max the blades are not engaged, hopefully the strap will soften a bit so I can re-adjust.

Thanks! Exactly what I needed

It helps to understand the air flow through this vacuum to see that the HEPA filter (2:56) is mounted backwards in this vacuum and why this filter is (and should be) relatively clean. Miele has a vacuum with similar air flow: kzbin.info/www/bejne/pXi8qIiVjrN4qLc Air flows through the hose into the back of the unit where it enters the bag. Air then passes out of the bag and through another filter (4:07), which is here called the post-motor filter. It is actually the pre-motor protection filter, because air passes through it BEFORE entering the motor chamber. (I make replacements for this filter by cutting pieces from EconomyPlus Air Conditioner filter material, model AC-302, available inexpensively at Home Depot. This filter material cuts easily with scissors. Measure the old filter to get dimensions.) After air leaves the air blower, it passes out through the HEPA filter on the front. Counting the bag as the first filter, the HEPA filter is the third and final filter, which is why it is relatively clean and why it is an EXHAUST filter. The filter's gasket material should not be visible from the front (2:56). This is a heavy vacuum, but I love ours.

which year was the custom Hoover elite 350

Were Hoover’s Elite series supposed to be the successor to the Convertible uprights, though the Decade 80 and 800 were high end Convertibles?

You want the beater bar. It vibrates the carpet and brings the dirt up to vacuum. With just the brushes. All you have is a sweeper.

Do these canisters use the same motors as the windtunnel uprights? Sound VERY similar

How do you replace the belt on this Legacy III vacuum?

Great 👍

CWP replacement brush roll

Early 90s

Damn auto spell

This is a great machine. Much better than the newer missiles hoovers or whatever else is out there that are all made of plastic. Use hipplebags with this and you're good to go.

Love the colour. I have one here in the UK badged as a turbolite.

I used to have that kind of Vacuum cleaner like that but that was a long time ago and I used to hate it when I was a kid!

Do you have the shampooer attachments

I’m trying to find replacement bags for mine any suggestions?

We have the same name

I’m unable to push the lever to the left in order to lower the height. It seems stuck. Is there some lock that I need to unlock?

I have a used 2000 Ryobi 725re that was from a yard sale. I just restored it with some new parts and it runs great.

Where can I get bags and belts for this vacuum?

I never knew anything about vacuums but when looking up bags for my ol beater I found this video. I have the exact same vacuum. I have been abusing this vaccum for 15 years and before that my buddy abused it and before that his sister abused it at a dorm. Been abused since it was made in early 1994. I just realized what I have and will stop abusing it but the amazing thing is, it's it better shape than the one in the video. Sadly I recently broke the cord hanger when my animals knocked it over. Dogs hate this thing... But other than that, I have never replaced even a belt, just bags. About to replace the light bulb for the first time. It only lasted at least 20 years maybe 30. must have sucked up $150 in change with this thing so far. It just keeps working. Does a great job scraping the pet hair from my rug.

Nice collection! I’ve got a Hoover powermax 1 and a runabout!

Very nice Hoovers.

What year was this thing made

I wish I still had that vacuum

These were in infomercials of the vacuum

From my tests with a water gauge, the E2 models had more suction sealed than an E series one speed. I do believe the one speeds however may have had a little bit more airflow. That old PN design I was never a fan of and I think thats one of the biggest issues with performance of a rainbow. The one speeds came in several different versions of motors also, which would affect performance, I think the one I tested had around 55-60" of suction where the E2 has between 70 and 80".

Could you explain the modification you made to use the Riccar Supralite bag? the Dirt Devil U bags seem to rip and spew dust everywhere? What am I doing wrong?

Hi there. What kind of bag do I buy for this type of vacuum? Thank you for your help.

Mine is a 6210 and works like new

Nice Hoover bro

wasnt that back piece bump where tools go on some other models (im someone from the uk and i want to start getting some american elites lol)

I remember it was featured on the movie house party where someone was dancing and vacuuming at the same time

I have been trashpicking for 10 years now, and have found literally DOZENS of vacuum cleaners over the years, most of which I have been able to salvage. Some of them I have made a video about (keywords "Marshall Curtis" and "vacuum cleaners"). They were mostly Bissells, Dirt Devil's, Hoovers, and Eureka's. I found one damaged Riccar SupraLite, one scrappy 1993 vintage Rainbow with the hotel size water bin, and just a few days ago, my first Oreck! Mine looks a lot like yours, except it has the power switch on top of the same type of "helper" handle you have. The floorhead is white instead of gray, the power cord is three pronged, and the nearly identical bag says "ORECK CELOC HYPOALLERGENIC FILTERING SYSYEM." I cannot tell what exact model or when it was made because the "VIN" plate is mostly wiped off. Can anybody out there tell me anything more about my unit? Mine "runs and drives" but it is LOUD! Also, I cannot get the bag to inflate despite not being able to find any holes in it. Upon taking the floorhead off, I find it is surprisingly relatively clean. Nevertheless, I will clean it up as best I can. I ran the motor with the bottom parts off and I notice that the motor arcs and sparks some. Is this normal? All I wish to do is just clean it up and do what little fixing I can, then possibly sell it, or give it away to someone who knows how to work on them.

I actually got one of these at Goodwill for $35 complete with attachments and shampooer. I got my first Ultimate G in 2020 for $25 with no attachments. Both work great!

I just recently got into collecting vacuums as well and I love your channel! ❤

Hello, if we want to cooperate with you, how can we contact you?

Really nice machine , also Wjat does the sand trap stand for?

Maybe you can help me with a question. I have a yellow convertible model U4135 that has what appears to be a small access panel on the body top. I have no idea what it's for or how to open it. Any ideas?

I have a model number U4343. The bag on mine has a slightly different design and the motor is 4.8 amps instead of yours that runs on 4.3 amps and the fan only has six blades. The body is identical to yours except mine is maroon in color.
