I have finally dropped the ball on this old gal and started restoration. As strange as it may sound I am going to first start from the bottom and work my way up. Today I have unfastened and removed the castors and leg extensions from this machine. As you can see from the photos they were...

Sounds good Brad. I will heed your recommendations for the gaskets. In terms of sanding and polishing the aluminum. What is the process of steps you performed? What grit of sandpaper did you use, did you use a sanding block, and what grade of steel wool did you use? Do I need to go with the...

The rollers and wringer box work! All parts of the machine currently work as should. Does anybody know where I can find a service manual/owners manual????????? The serial number is 428643W. Does anybody know what month and year this machine was produced? I have included a couple of pictures...

Brad, I was hoping you would chime in. Believe it or not (long story short) I came across your Model 30 videos over a year ago. Im 26 and never knew what a wringer washer was until your video's. I instantly became hooked on pre-war Maytag's after seeing your washer and it's restoration. I...

Hey guys, I have recently got on the Wringer bandwagon after getting my first ever Wringer washer just several weeks ago. Well I got another one! This one is a pre-war model, an era which peaks my true interest in the wringer washer world. I have a heavy interest in pre-war Maytag wringers...

Thanks guys for checking out my topic. Nice to me you all. I agree with you Brad, it is an art all on it's own. I would say this machine is content for now. I will be running it again on Tuesday (wash day). I have just been cleaning on the machine, that is all that is needed for now...

Stan, thanks for the advice on the agitator. I will eventually have to perform maintenance as we all know. This washer is amazing. It has washed clothes better than any automatic I have ever used growing up. It is more work and took me about an hour to wash two loads (I did not have a rinse...

Will do Stan. Sorry to hear about your machine wayupnorth. I just started a load for the second time in this machine this morning. I already hung a clothes line and am trying the machine for the second time. So far So good. Jon

Stan Thanks for your guidance. This unit has a gravity fed drain. I have seen units with pumps as well, pretty neat. I figured I will have to perform maintenance sometime in the future. There was an agitator puller tool on eBay recently, but it is missing parts within the set. These N...

Hello everybody, I just recently picked up a Maytag model N2L wringer washer for 40 bucks. I have never had exposure to a wringer washer before being born in 1989. I am now hooked on them. I did not know any better at the time but put the washer on it's side for transport. I discovered...
