Thanks to you and to Walter Grabner for the information. (Sorry it's taken
me so long--I've been at the Library of Congress, wrestling with microfilm
readers so old they only print out on 8-1/2" x 11" paper and only accept
quarters....) Yes, my Vito model 7214 does have the stainless steel bell
ring. Comparing the 7214 with the 7212 on the Leblanc web site: the
14.85mm bore and other specs do look identical, except for the bell ring on
the 7214. I wouldn't have known to look for the bell ring, but I'm glad to
have it.
