We have just imported to the UK, our first - and hopefully only - 1982/3 Airstream 310 Classic Motor Home. Apart from wandering in the wilderness looking to see what we have, our interest has been drawn to the Central Vacuum Cleaner unit.
We have most of the tools apart from possibly some sort of an adaptor from hose to the rigid pipe bits, but our surprise was that after a few minutes use, it stopped!
Deciding on the best approach is attack; I removed the base of the bathroom cabinet and found what I believe is the entire unit. I say this because it is very small, with only the one air outlet under the cabinet floor, that must some how use the bag; and on this I find a red cap sealing the outlet! So now I realise the reason it stopped is probably due to overheat/overload because the air cannot escape. We found two bags (New) and then the queries start. How does One fit the bag?
There must be some adaptor - holder or something that goes on the end of the outlet to hold the bag in place... the outlet is a very short piece of 1.1/2” grey pipe. Any ideas?
The writing on the motor section is a very poor script but looks like "Terio Campbill". 'T's, 'B's and 'R's could be anything! The model and serial numbers are IARV 32/120140.
As I said it is a small unit, with what looks like a receiving plenum/centrifuge call it what you will, in-between the part the hose plugs into, and what would appear the part where a bag fits. Under that must be the motor and some sort of housing that has many ventilation holes. There are no clips or quick release parts to facilitate changing or even securing a bag.
If any one recognises this very vague description, and can identify it and indeed can send a photo and better still a copy of the handbook/manual I, (I mean Mary, my wife ) would be eternally grateful. Chuck Dorset UK
