Time for a look at a very old Henry. So old, that he is not Red. Say hello to Cream and Brown Henry, and what a state he is in. Let's have a look and see how bad it is.
When you first turned that on, I thought the motor was toast - shorted armature. I'm amazed to be honest that it ran like it did after you lubed the bearings and replaced the brushes. Wouldnt have been long though had it been run further on the old brushes till the motor stopped running altogether, so yes, I think you saved it in time.
Sure is! Don't think the bearings I used were fab) same ones from the same pack are in my nv200 and it doesn't sound too but it runs really well (now anyway lol)
My Grans Red/Black HVC 200 (the original one without the cord rewind) has a moulded plug from new, which is ~1987 ish going by the serial number on the motor, it's obviously older as it has the square ratings plate on the back rather than a semi-circular one underneath the handle, and the lack of cord real, obviously. It also does have foam sound deadening but it's very crumbly. Also talking old numatic, the word numatic is still visible on the old Numatic factory in Beaminster on older streetview images.
I’ve got the same problems with this “RIFA” suppressors on my Electrolux vacuum cleaners. A day ago I had a lot of smoke in my room when I used my Electrolux D725.
ALL RIFA's do that, and it many, many different pieces/types of equipment. Iirc it is due to the fact they are paper based and moisture seeps in, they can be replaced with the correct Polypropylene? capacitors like Numatic now use. Best to add a suitably rated bleed resistor across the replacement capacitor (if there is not an internal one) to stop any chance of being zapped by the plug from teh charged capacitor.
@Numatic Fan08 Could but it's not advised to do so, it's there for a reason and is still there on the latest machines for that same reason. Modern polyester capacitors do not fail like the old paper based ones anyway.
@Numatic Fan08 The newer ones shouldn't blow in normal use, the older ones did because they absorbed moisture (being paper based) and would short, it's a know problem throughout vintage electronics and it's always a replace with a plastic capacitor fix. Personally I've never had a modern numatic blow it's X2 capacitor and we have quiet a few of them at work (40+)
I’m sending mine to a friend who is going to refurb it, it’s a little worse for wear, but it does have a moulded plug. It’s original 2. I know it is coz- 1) it’s brown. 2) it was my nans from new
Hi Sam, I have a 2013 Hetty that stopped working yesterday after knocking it over while in use. It has the small red switch for increasing the power. The light next to it stays red when switched on, but no sound from the motor. What is likely to need replacing? Thanks
Henry was red before he was cream and brown I have to say- Henry as we know it came out in around 1981, in Red/Black, cream & brown didn’t appear until the late 80s, and ran alongside the red, just as another colour option
It varies really. I've used spray grease, white lithium, dripper oil and I have some fancy bearing grease but that's no good for soaking into stuff. It's whatever I can find quickly about 3 1/2 minutes before filming the bit of me using it lol!
It was just Charles,Henry and James in cream and brown.George didnt come out till 1990 and was part of the alternative green trio with David and William
5:09 no. These didn’t have the red filter. Although the very very early ones might have. But it would’ve had the same filter as the red Henry you also showed in the video.
HVR200s did have red filters too.Then in around 1988 it changed to a white filter with the thick seal then around 1990 it changed again to the plastic rim filter.
Oh yeah!! I remember seeing a very very early HVRs having red filters. Did both colour schemes have the same filters at the time? As far as I know this particular one would have the same filter as the red Henry in the vid.
Not on these, it's across the live and neutral and as such apart from going bang it will still work, my grans had most certainly blown when I replaced it with a far superior Panasonic polyester equivalent that shouldn't blow.
Depends how its wired,as DGLcomputers said,in numatics the supressor is parallel so the motor will still go.In some other machines,its in series so motor cant get electricity to it before it goed through the supressor and therefore doesnt work
They are indestructible and powerful.They are everywhere as thats what most people want,summat that can move the dirt and not need replacing every 10 mins
I get what you mean. I've never chased after them either, they are a bit boring however, the cream ones don't come up too often and I never say no to a free, slightly rare vacuum!
@@vacuum_collector26 Deleted them and have had around 5 new phones sinced I made them so no chance of getting them back.Probably for the best as I now have a buisnes and job so cant really have anything on social media
At 0:08 they actually did not come out before Henrys were red the first Henry from 1981 model HVC200 was red up until 1987 when they started the red HVR200 but then a year later started to produce them in cream and brown till 1991 when they went back to red
@@beko1987 when Numatic started to produce Henry he was only available in red till 1988 and in 1991 when they started to produce him in blue, green and yellow and still red
Thats one of the dumbest statments.Whole point of a collectors item is that collectors have them.You still see less than 20 of them a year,especially with tools.I have 2 Nuvac NVE3s but dont think they are common coz I got 2
@@beko1987 Hey there I am looking to get my hands on a cream and brown Henry for a little boy who has autism and all he wants for Xmas is this Henry to add to his collection. We have searched everywhere and cannot find one. A few have been advertised for sale but no response. The family are in Ireland but are willing to cover costs not looking for a freebee. Your comment above got my attention and just wondered of you could point me in the direction of where I might locate one or indeed if you would know of any advertised. Any help at all would be greatly appreciated I really would love to find one. Thank you

I've really found this video useful and I've just fixed my hvr200 too, thank you!!
That motor was made on my mums 18th birthday lol

Wow that nearly as old as my oldest Kirby lol, great video and quick repair. Cant wait to see this with new bearings and Pimped up
WOW!!!! Blimey!!! You do have a cream and brown Henry!! OMG!!! I'm so happy. Is this a keeper? Keep him as he's Rare!
Shut up man
Sure is! Don't think the bearings I used were fab) same ones from the same pack are in my nv200 and it doesn't sound too but it runs really well (now anyway lol)
I'll make a video on my cream Henry tomorrow.

The filter is a microfresh filter. That comes with the HenryMicro.
This man is really funny and very educated ..... brilliant viewing to all his videos
Starting to get more Numatics now Sam

would you like a mid condition still working henry hvr 200 RS 2001 modle
Nice socks
Yes it is a genuine henry micro filter
Wow! They are rare, you are very lucky!
Yep verry
I found 2 NIB at an old storage container
@@Homepage. lucky you!
@@henryhooverfan2265 (I think) you have seen one of them on my channel, i only opens one because the box was severely damaged.

I've just got a 1991 one Sam ans he has a molded plug

He's very cute!
He doesn’t sound cute
lol
Numatics did have a moulded plug and these cream ones certainly did
I thought all Numatics came with a moulded plug from quite early on, glad to see I'm not wrong! (for once lol)
How is the Dyson dc17 coming along ?
I’m sending mine to a friend who is going to refurb it, it’s a little worse for wear, but it does have a moulded plug. It’s original 2. I know it is coz- 1) it’s brown. 2) it was my nans from new
I like the cream and brown
That is so rare
Hi Sam, I have a 2013 Hetty that stopped working yesterday after knocking it over while in use. It has the small red switch for increasing the power. The light next to it stays red when switched on, but no sound from the motor. What is likely to need replacing? Thanks
The circuit board is toast. You can bypass it so Hetty starts on high all the time

May I ask what spray you used on the bearings
It varies really. I've used spray grease, white lithium, dripper oil and I have some fancy bearing grease but that's no good for soaking into stuff. It's whatever I can find quickly about 3 1/2 minutes before filming the bit of me using it lol!
@@beko1987 lol
It was just Charles,Henry and James in cream and brown.George didnt come out till 1990 and was part of the alternative green trio with David and William

As far as I know this particular one would have the same filter as the red Henry in the vid.
@@NumaticHenryLover Doesnt matter about the colour when it comes to filters.Would have been the same
A. A ok!! Knew the early ones had red filters.
Knew in the late 80s they were that white nylon type.
I thought if the suppressor blew it wouldn’t go at all, or are some vacuums wired up differently so they will?
Not on these, it's across the live and neutral and as such apart from going bang it will still work, my grans had most certainly blown when I replaced it with a far superior Panasonic polyester equivalent that shouldn't blow.
Depends how its wired,as DGLcomputers said,in numatics the supressor is parallel so the motor will still go.In some other machines,its in series so motor cant get electricity to it before it goed through the supressor and therefore doesnt work
A. A Ahh yes, later on when it was cut away I could see it was in parallel as you say. So it would continue to run.
What’s the point In a suppressor?
I got 3 dyson dc07 2 yellow and 1 blue a Henry with a nakerd fan and a burned out vax
Well, they were actually originally red do you remember HVC200
Never ever understood the popularity of these........

These ran from 88 to 1991 then the other colours came in.Henry has always been red and black though and ran along side these
Adam why did you change your channel from Numatic Collector to A. A and put your profile pic black and got rid of all your great videos?
@@vacuum_collector26 I just dont have time to make videos anymore and just blacked out the channel as I use it for other non vac related stuff
