  • I have just about the same vac. The Royal Commercial, the one I have is a the same age as yours. I had to replace the bag because of holes in the old one. I also do not have a light on mine. All and all I have to say that Royal kicked Kirby's ass with this cleaner.

    All medal blades and whole lot less plastic, something Kirby lacks.

    The wide front wheels on the 602 would not have been original to the machine, either. All 602s had narrow wheels on all fours.

  • @southjk

    And if the bag on this Royal were correct, then the model would be a 611 and it would also have a 3-wire cord instead of a 2-wire one.

  • @crazychrisva

    Is yours manufactured in 1977, too?

  • @crazychrisva but kirby vacuums are still great vacuums

  • @OTAlucard

    Yes = November 1974. Could you please make me a video of it?

  • @ClassicTVMan81 my 602 serial number says #47L A

    so that would be 1974 ? and also has had the bag replaced like this one has been

  • The bag currently on this 602 is not original, as it would wrongly lead people to believe it is a heavy-duty commercial model. Why? The 602 is classified as an economy model. The original bag was actually colored gray and was a "shake out" bag (did not use throwaway bags).

  • @southjk

    Forgot to say thank you for the serial #!

  • @southjk

    That would make this machine a 1977 model. The serial # reads as follows:

    7 = calendar year 1977

    7 = calendar year decade 1970s

    C = calendar month March

    A = assembly line/plant code

    28866 = unit sequence number

  • @ClassicTVMan81

    serial 77c A 28866
