500-700. Seals Been looking about and it seems that the main seal assembly is H002 and H003 - effectively the cup/seal and bush bearing.... And it seems unobtanium. (Well H002) And to complicate it the usual g/box/pump seals won't hack it, as the centrifugal weight of the box, wash bowl and...

Who made the motors in the 500 series.... Hoover made the SPD-1 in the 600 series on

Apparently there was some book on Hoover Meadowbank factory... Think the library has it over there... Tried here in WA to the usual fruitless outcome It's a pity that a once thriving factory that made products that were in homes all around Australia is now shadows and dust

Hoover ads 600, 700, 800 900 series Has anyone got anything on the 600 to the elite 900 series? Remember in the mid 80s seeing cool laminated ad sheets depicting the internal build qualities of the 900 series... Also does anyone have much about the Meadowbank factory?

Wish I could get the 600 series info.... Remember reading the 620 service manual in 1990. That place closed in the late 90s.... As far as I know those manuals are unobtanium...also can't seem to find any exploded diagram on the 620 (A6004) either.... If I had to replace a 620 seal I'd look for...

SPD-1 Motor connections Terminals 1 & 4 Start Winding Terminal 7 - Low Speed connection (6 pole winding) Terminal 3 - High Speed connection (4 pole winding) Terminal 2 - Neutral Operation... The SPD-1 is s 2 speed Split Phase motor. Starting is achieved by the the start winding and main 4 pole...

If I get the chance I'll strip them down n post pics - kinda thing to do if replacing shaft seals and oil.... Would be interesting to see the clutch arrays side by side.... A good clutch brings the machine upto a full speed spin quicker..... Never had to replace one yet on a 620.... Have done...

Gearbox These boxes were direction based. In wash mode (counterclockwise from top) it drives the agitator. In spin mode the motor runs in opposite direction, which raises the whole gearbox from the brake pads (can see the lift in your video at 3:10) this is done by the clutch drive assembly...

940-955 exploded diag Got the full set for the 940-955 series.... It's interesting to see the compare to the blackstone machines...

I haven't seen a 620 in flight in eons.... It was great to see it go... It was interesting to. Watch the spray n spin mode - the later ones ran the tap only once per spin cycle. Your one is spotless inside... If I come across -arts, I'll let you know.... Been buying up on spares lately (before...

From what I remember the original pump was yellow kinda moulded plastic... Heck it's been a long time since I seen in a 620

Tho not 600 series... Have a little on the 900 series.... Will see if I can get anything on the 600 series

That locks the gearbox in place in wash mode.... The recirc pump fills it and it expands, pushing the brake arm on top of the gearbox... In spin mode it is drawn back in... I often wonder how the spin clutches hold on like they do... In the 820/920 series, the pump Darin's the bowl before the...

Lovely machine... Post a pic of the internals - trying to tell friends the differences.... I could so easy get more if I lived over east.... And machines tend to fare well in Victoria for some reason.... Must be the water I reckon Through the week I scored 2 Elite machines of the blackstone...

Had a good run on these today... An elderly couple had called me up saying their Elite 930 had given up and they thought the motor was gone, they have had it since new and never had a problem with it till now - 34 years or so. On the way back to unload that I spotted an Elite 940 sitting out...

Commander is here The commander come in today.... It's like a fresh breeze in the laundry.... A few pics added

Hoover 2300L This is that is in the 2300L tad disappointing hey... Hopefully on Friday I get the commander in.... It'll be sweet

Yeah... Who knew... Looking through this site I found out that the best of the Hoover top loaders were based on blackstone.... Will have to look into those machines n see the similarities... I pulled the trigger and bought the commander on eBay (the last of the blackstone based machines) the...

Thought I'd jump into this place... Who knew there are others out there that like washing machines.... Come across this forum while searching for an older Hoover machine (620 to Elite 935 or the 1st commander) nothing like the heavy duty wonders that had the blackstone line (good wash bowl...
