Kirby Handle Fork Bushing O...

Product details

This genuine Kirby handle fork bushing is the bearing surface at the handle fork pivot, fitted from the 516 through to the Legend II and including the Classic Omega 1CB, Classic III 2CB, Heritage II and Heritage II Legend. It carries part number 137273A.

Everything the handle does passes through this joint. The bushing keeps that movement smooth and quiet, and when it dries out and wears oval the handle develops a rock you can feel at every change of direction, often with a click as the fork shifts on its pin. The play then goes to work on the fork pin and the castings either side, which are considerably more expensive to put right.

A new bushing takes the slop straight back out. Inspect the fork pin for grooving while the pivot is apart, since a worn pin will chew through a new bushing quickly.
