    That's The Spirit!

    Hotpoint 9605 W

    My apologies..! I jumped to post my image as I read your posts ''9506'' NOT a 9605 top loader, so ignore my post about the Hotpoint 9506 front loader as youve got a 9605 top loader! Apologies for confusion..! With regard to the tub rust, Hammerite might be worth a try Chris

    Girbau HS6008 Washer Extractor Bearing Change

    Hi Kevin, Job took around 4 1/2hrs including test cycles. The machine is in a residential care home for the elderly, operated by staff so no need for fitting coin units. If it were in a block of apartments or flats etc then it would be fitted with a coin meter - the cut outs are pre cut behind...

    Girbau HS6008 Washer Extractor Bearing Change

    7 Pic 7, the old dump valve. Its a poor photo sorry. The black box contains a board with a 12V dc motor with its own control unit which operates the drain valve. For those un aware, most commercial machines are gravity drain hence being mounted on a plinth etc. The blue part has a plastic arch...

    Need a good used 50 pounder, what's my best bet?

    Alliance.. Id look into Alliance machines. Look for a soft mount one, ideally pump drain and one that suits your power supply available. I guess you could look into commercial laundry suppliers too, and investigate if they have any used/refurbished kit they can offer you. I commissioned this...
