The ones without set screws pretty much just pull up and off, however your machine appears to be an 80s style machine so it will more than likely have the set screw. It will be set into the agitator and will be kind of hidden so you may have to feel around for it.

There should be a small set screw on one side of it towards the bottom where the vertical part of the agitator begins to widen into the fins. I don’t remember what size it is but it’s very small so be careful not to break it. after you loosen the screw a few turns (you don’t need to take it all...

Looks like a pretty nice set in good condition https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/548647043434885/

Here’s mine! Here are the two I own. 1978 Maytag A408S and 1989 Maytag A482!

A rusted out dryer drum may be indication of a possible flood, or prolonged humidity within it.

That I’m not sure. I was able to blow out most if not all the water from the machine, and it held water pressure for a second or two before it blew out the solenoid. I was recording when it happened and you can actually hear the point at which the solenoid came out of the valve, which was maybe...

Just found a new one online and went ahead and ordered it!

Problem found, but what’s the solution? I decided to take the water valve out of the machine as I knew at the very least it would have to come out, and in doing so I found the issue. I guess I didn’t see correctly, as it was the second water valve that had complete blown apart, with the...

Hello everyone, I’ve ran into a big issue with my 2001 Kenmore Elite Catalyst. When I went to use it today for the first time since the beginning of winter, It sprung a massive leak from around the water valve. It also was allowing water through all four inlet points at once, rather than just...

TR7 experience A family member of mine owns one of these machines, and I have used it in the past. While it might not get everything perfectly clean, it does a very respectable job in my opinion. They’re not bad machines, just different than what a lot of people are used too. The few times...

According to the description it needs a new belt. depending on the year, this could be a belt drive machine, in which case it would have a single piece agitator. Even if it was Direct Drive, I believe these still had single piece agitators. I could be incorrect though but from what I can tell it...

Thank you for the help! Hopefully I can get it taken care of easily.

Hello everyone, Recently I took to figuring out the odd chirping noise on my dads 1985 A382. It would make this sound whenever the motor was running, and I figured it was just the motor itself. As it turns out I was incorrect. I recently removed the belt for the pump from the machine to check...

Hello everyone, I have a small and rather odd question. Recently I purchased a New in Box (old stock) Kenmore Belt Drive Pentavane agitator, and I am excited to put it to use in my belt drive 70 series. However, it came without the cap to cover the bolt on top (which I knew when purchasing)...

My favorite machine I own It’s hard for me not to pick all of my machines as my favorites, but If I had to choose just one machine, it would be my 2001 Kenmore Elite Catalyst washer. I’ve had it for less than a year but it’s so versatile, and provides a strong cleaning, no matter what cycle is...

Hello everyone! As some people may know, I currently have four full size machines and one portable machine in my collection. I currently can only run one or two machines at a time, as it would otherwise trip the circuit breaker. Our garage is currently set up on one, 20 amp (I believe) breaker...

The output on the back of the machine is also not in the correct place

I bought one for my 89 A482 several months ago and it does a pretty great job in the helical transmission machines. It has a little bit smaller base too so it helps to take some of the load off the motor and transmission. Mine also doesn’t have the full lint filter cap, but instead has just the...

Okay so this is a question I've had for a little while but thought Id ask everyone here. Will an agitator from an old Kenmore Wringer washer fit into a 86 Kenmore Heavy Duty Plus Washer? I've been trying to find an old Kenmore agitator, and found one for an old Kenmore wringer washer and was...

Condenser Dryer Wow that’s really cool! Something like that would be perfect for my setup, as I have no gas hookup and no 220 volt supply. I’ll have to look into getting one some day!
