Sorry for not working on this video any sooner. I had promised a while back to make a video of my Kitchenaid KDSS-21 in action complete with rotary power switch sounds. A BIG THANKS! to John L. (Combo52) for helping me to acquire all the needed parts to make this marvel work again! Sorry for...

Jakins; if I'm not mistaken, that is a Fedders Pick-up air conditioner. Fairly rare, at least around here. I've always wanted to find one of those. I believe it was meant to compete against the GE Carry Cool.

No, actually it is a real Hobart built unit. It has the acrylic (I think) logo on the left side. The tub is just the bare unlined non foil fiberglass. I'll get some video and pictures of it when I get the control board for Mr. Lefever.

Thanks again everybody! Special thanks to Mr. John L (combo52)! Will have a video on here hopefully very soon of this unique machine. Thanks!

The way I understand it (please correct me if I am wrong) the rotary power switch is basically a rapid advance timer without the timer function. All the same contacts, just no regular timer motor. It has lobes in the rotary power switch to basically show the controller where it is in...

That is one beautiful looking machine. Just look at that porcelain shine! Congratulations on the find!

Thank you both for your replies! Pdub: Yes, actually I did take it to two different electronics shops nearby. The only problem is that in order to get to the thin film membrane, you have to pretty much destroy the front cover that has all the graphics on it to get to it. Otherwise, yes it would...

and finally, the unit with the exposed door, rotary power switch on left, and controller on right.

Well, it has been a long road, but I finally got my KDSS-21 all fixed up and ready to go, or so I thought. Thank you to all who helped me get it this far. I finally got the tank, pump, air heater, and the rotary power switch all hooked up. I was able to procure a known good working...

Hey, that's either a KDSS-21 or a KUDS21SS. I'm restoring a KDSS-21 myself right now. I had to buy two different computer modules for this thing, one was brand new in box from Eaton after they bought Singer controls. Yikes, was that ever high priced. The two detergent cups not being opened on...

Actually, the evaporative cooling does work, but the relative humidity must be low enough for the process to work correctly. When the hot dry air enters through the water soaked pads, a little bit of the water is evaporated, taking away heat with it. That is why there is generally a constant...

Hello all. I just recently purchased a KDS-21 and the motor needs new bearings. I have the pump disassembled to the grinder/drain impeller. I guess the grinder/drain impeller are one unit, correct? Anyway, first, how do you remove the grinding unit from the shaft. Second, are there shaft seals...

I purchased the one in Des Moines Sunday.

Final picture 3. No, those are not clean, no we don't pre-rinse. Just can't really see the food residue in the pictures.
