    Great video Sam 😊, this is one reason why I love Numatic vac's, they're ridiculously reliable and on the rare occasion one does go wrong, it can usually be fixed fairly easy and they're also powerful vacs too 👍
    According to Numatic, Most of the 10 million Henry's they've built are still running today, I think that in itself shows just how reliable Numatic vacs are 👌

      I did like the little nub in the carbon brush that pops out and kills the vac before damage occurs though, thats how it should be! If that was a modern henry it would need a new motor!

    Thank you for the great video, Sam. I followed it to diagnose and repair our 1995 model and found the brushes had worn exactly the same way. I ordered new ones and took Nicholas cooke's advice and snip off the main brass tab. It's working great now, thanks.

    WARNING: Don't snip off the brass tab that you have bent back to remove the old brushes. Instead snip off one of the small tabs on the new brush. When you have inserted the brush and got the brass retainer in position then bend the tab back to hold it in position. Doing it his way means that you will have the devils own job to keep it in position.

    Hi Sam, i have a similarly old henry which upto today was still working as new! Frustratingly that changed as the nut which is on the end of the motor decided to undo itself.
    I tried tightening it back on but this didn't help and it span off on the first use. Any ideas on the problem?
    Cheers!

    Cracking instructional video Sam. I have a Henry exactly the same as this one. Bought it brand new probably around 30 years ago and it's still going strong. I was sold when the guy selling it to me stuck a house brick on the end of the pipe and it held it. I could with changing the brushes. What site on eBay did you get them from?

    • @beko1987
      @beko1987  Před 3 lety

      It's certainly worth doing them before they cause damage. You'll need to know how old yours is, early 1990s onwards were the same size so hvr200 carbon brushes into ebay will bring up lots. Or open Henry up and if its old enough it'll have the details on the side. Just search the carbon number it says

    Hi Sam, I bought a standard aftermarket Henry floor head. After a few months the switch you flip doesn't seem to raise the bristles completely. Can this be fixed or do they just break regularly?

    • @beko1987

    • @beko1987
      @beko1987  Před 3 lety +1

      Yes it's removable, got to disassemble it a bit though then you'll find the wires come off the switch wire. Cut the wire as close to the spade connector as you can and just plug those back into the mains switch. Disconnected and safe then!

      I opened the vac, and on the motor will be the part number for the carbons. I searched for that on ebay, then only bought from listings that specifically stated it. That way when the wrong brushes arrived I could send a photo of the motor and part number and get my money back from the idiots who sell modern hvr200 carbons under all the part numbers they can. Good luck sir... Could always file some larger ones down if your careful and keep the sides flat

    I’ve got the same motor, but instead of the brushes being too worn down, they’re both seized inside the cartridge. Can’t get them to move in or out.

    • @beko1987
      @beko1987  Před 3 měsíci

      Common problem sadly, and sometimes quite tricky to fix. Removing the old brushes by brute force and as dust, then sanding down and fitting random other carbon brushes is the fix I've seen before. Hvr200 carbon brushes changed so much over the years and certain generations are hard to find, then your up against stock listings and crappy descriptions using every attribute in the ancient parts dstabase

      Vac Washer26 I really hope not. Really not keen on the 2011 Henry. There is nothing special about 2011 Henry. He wasn’t even like a blue,green nor even a yellow one (he would’ve been a clone to Steve’s one 😂) but UDS Henry’s particularly the rocker switch models are FAR FAR worse. I think they were the worst motors by far. Here’s the scale of motors worst to best.
      UDS (99-04)
      1100w type 1. (96-98)
      620w (2014-Present)
      Twinflo (2004-2014)
      800w (81-90)
      1000w (90-95)
      Here are my opinions of the motors that Numatic have used over the years. Worst is UDS and best is the 1000w.
