Compact 'Always Beauty Clean' power nozzle
Original Message   Nov 15, 2022 9:52 pm
Where can I get the brush roller rebristled? What style belt will fit? Is the Hoover Constellation/Celebrity/Quik Broom Powermatic (early gen) Nozzle belt fit?

The belt 'pulley' rides off-center (about 2-3" away from center of brush roll) & has Electrolux PN1 style bearings on both ends The Compact ABC PN has two air paths (I assume this will outclean a Hoover WindTunnel?) I once had a WT canister but got rid of it bcuz I prefer the TriStar/Compact Basically this Compact PN is like a 'combination' of a Lux PN1, Hoover WT PN, Kenmore 3-position PN (came w/lower end Power Mate canisters until the early 1990s), a Rainbow SE/PE or E/E2 PN2 & Singer PN I don't even know if a Eureka PN motor will fit or did this PN use a special motor? The original motor looks more 'rounded' but I haven't tested it yet

I found some good images of an ABC on "that other site", including one of the nozzle flipped over, but none with the bottom plate removed to reveal the guts. It reminds me a lot of a Lux Ze3. You might get lucky and be able to use a Ze3 brush roll. What is the length from the outside surface of each end cap to the other? And how far from the outside edge of the end cap to the center of where the belt rides?
