So "SIBIR" is one of the many brands popular in Soviet Union.
The one on the pictures was made under licence of Hoover, but the you can see on the video is a national design.
VYATKA washers under licence of the Italian ARISTON.

Hi Ingemar, thank you for the info, didnt know that about the naming of appliances, the Vyatka Ariston twintub video is fun, loved the Hitchcock music, I was wanting to see what the inside of the washer was, Do you know if its an impellar or agitator?

Question to (#Replay27) the Single Tub:
Mike...do you know if there are any videos of the pictures you posted, ie the single tub and its changing drum & pulsator, would like to see the machine in action. Any idea's?
Cheers
Hass.

Be careful!
I've come across old Eastern European / Soviet appliances that were 'Class 0' i.e. have no grounding whatsoever and were intended to be used with isolated supplies.
Be extremely careful if you are using these, particularly in Western Europe where TN-C-S grounding systems are normal and you could end up getting a really bad shock.
If you are using them, ensure that they are connected to an outlet that's protected by an RCD (GFCI) or use a plug-in RCD.
I would recommend doing that with ALL old appliances to be perfectly honest (including those made in the US, Western Europe, Australia etc) as safety standards in the old days weren't very high and grounding was often seen as a bit optional.
