Oil Here is a link to the thread where I found the correct oil for mine about £7 I think but it will do a few machines. Filling is tricky as it burps out oil. It should make it quieter Richard http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?38878

Thermostats Hi lee my bendix lt although having a heater has thermostats near where the inlet water fills in. It's because if you select hot it will wash at the temp of incoming water. Select warm and if the hot water is too hot it squirts cold in to make a perfect warm so that's what those...

That's great I hoped it had found a good home , I have a workshop manual ( if you don't I think you might , I'm not sure who has what here,) I know what you mean regarding the dryer fan it makes a racket during washing , apparently US models had a third solenoid to switch fan on and off when...

That's great Well done I have one too but it's been well used and needs re spraying , I've still not got around to it , I know you can buy black hose of any diameter length from halfords to fashion up a drain hose ? Thinking about how brilliant you do your resprays , how about you have mine...

Ooh I want one ! Lovely well done Richard

Hi great machine I've got one too and am slowly bringing it back to life. One little thing mine needed was the starter switch gear in the motor was stuck it made a loud buzzing noise and I recognised it straight away and switched it off. Lowering the motor and a but of oil and a few movements...

I had a similar model Hi I had a similar machine , and I'm sure yours is the same inside. I think you can alter the upper rack tho, slide it out as normal to load, the long silver arms will slide out too, the white clips on the end turn left or right this allows the upper rack to slide out...

Hi Tom It's probably down to history, Most older working class older houses were never built with kitchens as we know them now, the back room usually had a large coal fired range which all cooking was done on and the only source of hot water, food was prepared on a table in front of it , a...

Valve box Hi Al the metal square in the corner has a rubber flap. To empty push hose into hole and it cuts off supply to filter tray, mine had rotted and I had to block it completely as it sprayed water up in the air. I then had to hold a later super matic pipe over the filter spout ( it's not...

Filter Filter tray

Leaky filter ? Hi I fb messaged Chris to see how things were going with the machine and he said it leaked around the filter. Mine did the same. But it's easily fixed. Remove the filter and clean the aluminum hole with fine sand paper. Clean the rubber gasket too. You will see on the filter tray...

Hi thanks My machine came with original instructions and delivery installation instructions. I got the workshop manual Paul has kindly posted a few years ago. I was going to try and find a good old fashioned photo copier as scanning and uploading is a faff the way my pic works. I never thought...

get your top off! It would be worth removing the top also, this is easy when you know how, you need a thin steel ruler or even better the fish slice thingy that you use to turn over eggs in a frying pan etc, dont use a screw driver as it will chip enamel. in the centre of the gap between the...

belts and gear box shifter the fan belt can be replaced with a car one if its the same width to fit the pulley groove or easily adjusted by unscrewing the idley pully in the centre and moving it into a new hole. The main drum belt is a bit more fidly and should be adjusted first, you need to...
