Pulled the 0611 out for the season and on the first wash I notice water coming out from under the machine. Lift it up and it seems to be coming from around the drain hose for the spin tub. Hose doesn't seem stiff but even with a new clamp there's a good leak. What's the remedy? Line the inside...

My parents run an Inglis 1A42000 (I honestly cannot find a better model number) Heady Duty washer and it loves to lose the top half of the agitator if you even THINK of overloading it. It's half in by eight plastic tabs in four guides in the lower half of the agitator and friction. If they ever...

Another Beatty that was built to last. Wait, what am I saying? they were ALL built to last.

Like I said, Beatty put a lot of engineering into their appliances and they last FOREVER.

It's so awesome when a Beatty shows up somewhere. The build quality of some of their appliances are incredible. Their water pumps are built like TANKS. I've seen first hand their 40's era piston pumps in service well past Y2K. The name Dominion rung a bell so I dug through whatever Beatty...

My 0611 had the same problem when the hoses were removed after decades of sitting there. They hardened to the point that clamps could no longer make the seal on their own. The rad hoses in cars like to do this too. I took my tube of goop and coated the inside ends of the hose and the connections...

Right, so as long as I properly load the spincan I shouldn't have any problems running sans the mat. It's fine with nothing in it. Only when you really fill it up do you get vibration issues but that might of been it being improperly loaded down with pants. I can tighten up the linkage between...

Had to run it today when the Inglis had its timer give out halfway through a load. Does anyone know the diameter of the original spin mats? These things don't like working without them unless you want the machine rumbling across the floor.

Only took forever but with careful balancing and reseating of the seals I got it. Ran it through two cycles with no leaks. There is some squeaking but I don't know if that is the washer shim on the underside of the shaft rubbing its way into the new home or something else. Between how sensitive...

Say, unclejohn. Would you be able to tell me how the mechanical seal assembly on your 0611 is assembled? I've gone over my seals, goop and everything thrice. Either mine isn't getting a flush seating between the discs (which is odd because the rubber buffer should flex it into place if it was...

Right. Problems. So the lack of a spring in the rotary seal was apparently made up with one face being flexible with a reinforced steel ring around the edge. I bought a large washer and glued that inside the cavity of the buffer, then gooped in the rubber mount for the ceramic face. This was to...

Pulled it apart agian and cleaned most of the goop out. Here's what you get. http://i11.photobucket.com/albums/a166/ballsandy/CRW_8222.jpg The exploded view a few posts up and with googling I can't find ANYTHING that says this had a spring in it. There's the face, counterface, the buffer and a...

I was wondering why there was that giant cavity. When I pulled apart thebuffer I found a large amount of rust but no spring. I since reassembled it using large amounts of goop........ I'll pull the buffer out again and hopefully I can separate the pieces but where could I find a new spring?

Lose one leak, gain another (or two) I had a feeling that the drain from the spin tub would leak since it's the only place there was no hose clamp.....and it did but that was easy to fix. Unfortunately our old friend is still being annoying. While reassembling the spin can assembly I noticed I...

Managed to get it off. Decided to take a risk and dent the side of the buffer's metal ring and then a few more taps with the hammer and it fell out. It's in pretty bad shape but again, it's not something I can affordably source a replacement for so out came the Goop and after being washed...

Well I was hoping that someone here might know a bit more. All the other forums I frequent don't specialize with large appliances like here. I purchased it at a used construction supply store that sits on the Mt. Paul Industrial Park's main drag. Paid $75 for it which was the high end of what I...

Hello everyone! So I spotted a Hoover twin tub washer the other day and took the chance to buy it as I always wanted to try one. It's a 0611 which is apparently your basic unit. It was relatively clean and there wasn't too much rust. WD40 and two test cycles found no electrical or mechanical...
