  • Here's a lovely vintage vacuum cleaner manufactured in 1973 and in almost factory fresh condition. In this video I unbox the cleaner, fit a new belt and LED bulb for the headlamp and demonstrate the cleaner in action on carpet and using the optional cleaning tools.
    If you would like to buy the LED bulbs shown in the video, you can get them by clicking on the Amazon affiliate link below:

    I’ve said it before, but it bears repeating, the montage of cleaning shots are always so professionally done. It’s also the best way to gain a sense on just how well these vintage cleaners clean. Definitely my favorite part of these videos.

    What you call a "suppressor" seems to basically just be a capacitor connected in parallel across the motor. It would not only block RF noise kicking back into your house wiring, but would also help to reduce arcing on the motor brushes. The vacuum will work fine without the capacitor, but you'll probably get more wear on the motor over time. If you really wanted, you could just replace the capacitor with a modern one if you could look up the right value - it doesn't have to be a "special" type. All that matters is if it's the right voltage and capacitance value (in microfarads, usually).

    I much preferred the older metal base models like these not only for their strength but since their converter slid in from the back they didn’t tilt when pulled while using tools.

    Roger I like your videos and I like this Hoover Senior, it is the sort of vacumn I remember in some peoples homes, although we always had the Electrolux cylinder vacumns.
    It would be interesting to know how much these cost in todays money. I am at a loss to understand the prices of some modern vacumns such as Dyson or the corddless one whose name escapes me that costs in excess of £700 and seems such low quality construction.
    I use a Henry and am very pleased with it and enjoy using it, which is really what counts.

    i found the older bronze coloured one had better hose suction with the side converter entry even with the machine staying at 1 speed ...withe 652 series you had to have a brand new clean bag on for decent hose suction...the power dropped the more the bag was used...I think it was stronger on the older type because it only had the cloth bag no paper insert..thats my experience anyway ...all brilliant strong classic machines though ...love them

      It depends on the way it’s wired in. Sometimes they can be removed easily and other times you need to reconnect wires.

    • @aaronlucas8162
      @aaronlucas8162 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      A suppressor is pretty much a big, fat capacitor slapped across a dirty, inductive load, such as a motor, like that in a vacuum, to “suppress” any electrical noise generated and balance the load type.
      I hope this makes sense.
