How-do-you-do, I just won a Eureka Model 260 from Ebay. Does information technology take the regular round eureka belt? Too does anyone know what amp motor is in it and are new ones bachelor. Fifty-fifty a higher amp motor? This is a two speed automatic with a green bag and white trim with gold around the low-cal. Any info on this model would be appreciated. Some additional questions, I would similar to endeavor and restore this to be a daily driver. The castor roll has the foursquare ends. Would a vibra groomer II with square ends piece of work? Would the new sanitaire wheels that are readily bachelor piece of work on this model? The purse is in excellent shape according to the pictures, but may need a new gasket or gasket� ring and tube. I know these are available for sanitaires and am bold this would work on the 260? I purchased a new cord sleeve for a new cord (it has a hoover convertible cord on information technology.) I also take a new 2 speed switch for it. What size motor is in this model? Are new motors bachelor? even ane with a higher amp. (must be a 2 speed) Thanks for any assist you tin give me Bud Mattingly |

That motorcar is essentially a Sanitaire with a lower-amperage (3.3-amp) motor, so many parts such every bit the lower bearing plate are interchangeable betwixt the ii.� As for the wheels, the forepart wheels might exist compatible merely the dorsum wheels are non if yous are thinking of the exposed rear wheels on the current vii-amp Sanitaires.� The smaller, hidden rear wheels might work, simply keep in mind they might attach differently as this machine uses the rear wheels to adapt to the carpet height.� I'm non positive, only if I were to approximate the purse mountain would exist the same as a 1400-series handbag mount (2 screws) so the Sanitaire latch-style purse mount would Non piece of work.� You could very well supplant the original motor with a 7-amp Sanitaire motor (not sure how easy it would exist to find one in two speeds or if they are even produced anymore), but I don't know why y'all would want to ruin a perfectly original automobile and put a higher-power motor in it.� I call up the 3.3-amp motor does just fine in this motorcar and provides plenty of power to clean very well, better than a Hoover from the menses).� Later on all, these Eurekas aren't near as common as their Hoover counterparts from the same period. |

Hello Budmattingly: Dainty find/buy.� It takes the same round belt that all the EUREKA/Sanitaires of this vintage use.� Readily bachelor.� I suspect your model is vintage 60 ish.� The brush roll is called a "disturbulator" if my terminology is correct.� Gaskets for the bag coupling and motor housing can be easily fabricated, if the demand be.�� I have to second MH's motion.� Keep it as original as�possible. Utilize to your heart's please.� It will make you lot proud!� Just curious: Does it have a dust material/paper handbag zipper unit? Carmine D. |

��Thank y'all both for your help. It does have a zippered material nylon outer pocketbook that takes the f & g paper bags. It has a handbag latch like the commercial sanitaires and non the two screw coupling. It is light-green with white trim and gilded around the low-cal. Someone else told me it probably was the Eureka 50th anniversary edition, since the calorie-free had the gilded trim. From the pictures, it seems similar its had niggling use. Bud |

Hi Bud, I've been trying to exist adept and lessen my "shopping" but I couldn't help not keeping an eye on that Eureka the whole fourth dimension it was up for auction.� Even so, I opted to snatch a Westinghouse "Stratovac" canister that turned up because I knew I probably� wouldn't see another of for a good while.� Good thing I guess since the final price on your upright turned out to be most twice what it sold for when new.� The cracking thing though is that information technology sets a stunning instance.� It's nearing the l yr mark and it's running, looking good and relatively� solid.� By the way, I believe I saw a gear up of attachments that may fit it also on eBay. Might be incorrect merely I think your Eureka goes back far plenty to be part of the line the Eureka "Aureate Crown" canister came out of in the very, very belatedly '50s or very early '60s.� Pigment color and gilded� trim are the same thought.� Eureka had a lot going on at the time including the Vibra-Beat out canister. All-time, Venson |

Hi Venson, I too saw the attachments and bought them final dark. I paid more than I should have for those as well, but I had never seen attachments for the top of the Eureka before and they looked near unused as well. When I receive the vacuum, I am going to have it serviced at a vacuum shop I have dealt with for years. The Eureka has a hoover cord on information technology, which�is in practiced shape,�but I establish the original string sleeve (only had 1 left) on the internet and will take a new cord with that sleeve put on it. I likewise �take a make new two speed switch that I had bought years ago to fit the square handle too. I actually had a friend who's female parent had a Eureka Twin Power Automatic, which had that square handle. At the time the foursquare handle and parts were notwithstanding bachelor, In my opinion, that was the nicest and most well made handle, Eureka always fabricated for their uprights. This was in the early seventy's, so I bought a new Eureka Twin Power and had a new square handle put on it instead of the circular handle information technology came with. That probably was my favorite vacuum of all time....unfortunately I was immature and traded it in when the new Eureka ESP'southward came out. Live and learn....... Bud |

��Thanks both for your aid. Information technology does have a zippered cloth nylon outer bag that takes the f & yard paper bags. Information technology has a handbag latch like the commercial sanitaires and not the two screw coupling. Information technology is dark-green with white trim and gold around the light. Someone else told me it probably was the Eureka 50th anniversary edition, since the light had the aureate trim. From the pictures, it seems similar its had fiddling utilise. Bud Hullo Bud: Yous might be right on.� EUREKA is probably 1909, so the 50th would be 1959 [As Venson said].� The attachments, while they don't work very well on these models, are good to accept with the vacuum.� More value added. BTW, when you have information technology, check the amperage on the bottom of the machine.� Should accept a small metal plate on the underside with model,�motor specs, and place of product. WRT string and protector, it's not uncommon for repairs on the old EUREKA upright�cords to use HOOVER sleeves [protectors] with direct finish generic cords.� Carmine D.

Bud; Your vacuum cleaner would exist from the late 50's.� I would advise that y'all do not change parts from the original pattern, since you are a vacuum collector.� Check the disturbulator and make sure the beard are adequate length.� This design configuration of the bristles made for a very good brushroll/anarchist at the time.� Information technology helps in removing alot of the deep down dirt, in the rug.� The rear wheels, found on some of the underside of Sanitaires are not going to fit the Eureka, because they are larger than the Eureka's wheels.� The axle is also different from after Eureka/Sanitaires.� The motor amperage of your Eureka should be 3.5.� This vacuum cleaner cleans very well and is non every bit loud as present 24-hour interval Sanitaires of similar design. Like I said before, endeavor to stay close to original as possible.� You paid a mint for this motorcar. |

Give thanks You lot all for the data. I do understand about keeping information technology every bit original every bit possible. To practice this, how do you sanitize the castor roll, wheels, etc? |

Cheers all for the information. I do understand about keeping information technology as original as possible. To do this, how do y'all sanitize the brush roll, wheels, etc? Hi Bud, My best suggestion is to do nothing.� If y'all mean bacteria removal, there is no actual way to fully "sanitize" a used vacuum unless you totally dismantle it and still no way to return it totally or even virtually germ free.� As well, there is nothing to be gained except a lot of work and possible issues.� However, if y'all want to clean the machine's underside upwards a footling . . . If you as well ain a vacuum with a blower, adhere the hose and crevice tool and blow away any dust, cobwebs, etc., that may be found in the recesses on the front wheels. Employ a natural bristle brush or even a clean paint brush� to get into bike recesses.� Also, since you'll probably want to install a fresh drive chugalug,� remove the plate covering the fan chamber plus the machine'southward belt and brushroll and blow out the brush chamber.� Y'all tin use the brush I mentioned here also to loosen dust that doesn't easily blow away.� This is a job better done outdoors or in a workshop. [Please note that my non making mention of consummate removal of the cleaner's wheels is totally deliberate.]� Moisten a paper towel with a little window cleaner and plough the wheels with your thumb equally you use your fingers and the moistened toweling to quickly remove whatsoever foreign matter like grit or shampoo residuum.�� The wooden "disturbulator" is not meant to be exposed to water.�� A stiff brush with natural or plastic bristles may be helpful in dislodging adherent dust and clay between the tufts of bristles on the brushroll.� If there is black remainder that sometimes develops on a brushroll, do no more than than LIGHTLY moisten a cloth or paper towel with window cleaner or a spray cleaner like Fantastik and clean it equally best you can. Every bit far as collectibles go, clean up is a proficient thing but to the extent that original parts and finishes are not contradistinct or damaged by over-cleaning.

How-do-you-do Bud: I'thou going to have a niggling unlike tact than Venson, tho I wholeheartedly agree with everything he says. For the actually bad vintage vacuums , I have a "swat" method of cleaning.� Dismantle completely and submerge the parts, even metallic, in hot h2o in a slop sink and castor make clean.� Of class, zip electric nor the material bags and paper filters.� Cream filters, rubber gaskets, fifty-fifty felt�are fine for this type of cleaning.� Simply use intendance due to their fragility.� After these are completely clean, dry out thoroughly and fifty-fifty employ a blower/held held hair dryer.� The handbag, for instance, tho zipper and still clean and in good shape,�may concord odors from time and lack of utilize.� The swat cleaning is fine.� Keep the zipper open when submerged.� After cleaning, dry thoroughly and then over again with the hair dryer.��Coat the zipper with a light amount of machine oil.� Sewing machine oil is perfect.� Piece of work the zipper a few times and all the same leave open until thoroughly dry.� Clean and sanitized.� A fiddling fragrance using an centre dropper on the F&Yard�new paper bag and you're good to go. I have even dismantled the HOOVER agitators and submerged in water and brushed make clean to remove all the within and outside clay and gunk caked on for years and years.� Works fine if stale thoroughly.� I use this method too as a forerunner to sand and paint, if the agitator is already rusted, as many are at times from laying in basements and garages. Good luck. Blood-red D. This message was modified Jan 2, 2009 past CarmineD |
