Hofmann VML16 Versions
There have been several versions of the VML16 over the years. As you can see from the photos below the front half is pretty much the same with just upgrades to the plunger arms and bearing, there have been some changes such as uprated springs and sealed bearings too, all of which are backwards compatible. However the motor and gearbox have definite model changes.
From 1990 through to 2004 the handle and gearbox was based around “Stayer” motor with the motor dropping down when it connects to the gearbox . the handles were various colours, mainly green and red, with slight variations. parts are now getting scarce
From 2004 through to 2022 the handle and gearbox was based around “Fein” motor with the motor being slightly higher than the gearbox
the handle was an orangey red, and most parts are available and should be for some time to come.
From 2022 the handle is grey and the motor is even higher than gearbox. the motor is called “V2002”
a better photo will follow soon.
