Spin Speed --
Service manual indicates the spin speed is 600 RPM on regular and 400 on slow, with 70 oscillations per minute for agitation on regular and 47 for slow. Cycle chart for the Programmer Washer (800) below.
The service manual still shows this washer being made under the name of Hamilton out of Two Rivers, so it's definitely before being gobbled up by WCI but using a Franklin transmission/drive. I have to wonder if this was built in Webster City, IA at the Franklin Manufacturing plant. Does anyone know if the earlier Norge-Hamilton washes were made in Wisconsin or out of a Norge factory?
Thank you Rick for posting the videos. Fascinating and beautiful machine!
