    Thanks for the technical info! I have started buying seals and belts off eBay from a guy called All Fix Electrical. I just received part H013, the shaft seal just under the agitator cap. I also got a static pump pawl (part HA057) and a new belt for the mechanical pump. Seeing you know a bit...

    Clutch slip Yes it impresses me too. I read somewhere that the 700s on had a different clutch set up based on the fact that they had an electric pump, hence less give from the clutch. I guess this means gear boxes post 700 series are not compatible with their predecessors clutch wise. On...

    Thanks Blackstone and ChlorineD! Thanks guys, much appreciated the pages of the manuals you posted up. It's really got me fascinated. The gear box is something I would love to know more about in more detail. Old advertising is interesting for pics when they were new too. I saw one for a 560...

    Hoover 725 (new Blackstone Australia)

    Here's a link to my Hoover 725 in action. Note: it has an electric pump and no recirculating feature. These models were the first to come with a plastic outer tub. http://https//youtu.be/lcsiI5rTtTA

    Hoover 620 (Blackstone)

    Hello everyone, just thought I'd share a quick video and some pics of my 1977 Hoover 620 washing machine. The video has my little pet cockatiel vying for my attention in the background ... I'll get a better video sometime soon when I have a tripod. Just wondering if anyone here has spare parts...

    Up until recently here in Australia replacement pumps have been available, but only in white. I think that this may be one of them.

    The recirc phase engorges the bladder with water, pushing the drum brake on. It's sucked back in when the the pump sucks the water out of it. This happens at when the water is drained from the bowl, creating a vacuum and releasing the brake.

    That bladder Hi Nate, Yeah as mentioned it does hold the drum stationary, most importantly so the bowl can empty out before spinning commences. The 600 series saw the introduction of this feature to avoid the redistribution of soil into the washing by commencing spinning whilst draining.

    Hoover 725 They're still going! An appliance repairer's magnet is on the front; Hoover had finished making machines with the front badge by the 700 series. Does anyone know production year specs for 500, 600, 700 and 800 series machines? Thanks, Erik

    That hoover 560 No chance your friend would like to sell the 560 or swap for an extremely good condition 725?

    Hoover 725

    Hi all, am still looking for a 500 or 600 series Hoover top loader but have done pretty well with this 725 (and it was in Sydney)! Advertised online for about $300 dollars it didn't generate much interest according to the seller. The photo posted up didn't do it much justice either. Anyway I...
