I've been enjoying using the new arrival in the basement...
A Nice Hot Towel Wash in the '61 GE
- Thread starter Unimatic1140
- Start date
Help Support :
The earlier perforated tub GE fill flume is aimed towards the agitator instead of the later version from the 70s-90s that is aimed towards the side of the tub...
Adding the detergent the GE way...
Feh to Green Monsters
No plastic green measuring cups allowed in this basement...

Detergent gets dissolved before it ever hits the wash...
Washing and Filtering

Pausing for the first spin
Gotta love it
That famous GE spin-drain with the water coming back over the top of the tub

Why GE moved the Filter-Flo flume to the 2:00 position starting in 1962,

Robert,
You seriously have to make a video of this machine! I just love it.
So is the water level on the highest setting during this wash? Curious if it fills up to the filter pan or just to the curve of the washtub.
Anyways, it's an awesome machine and so glad you found it!

2 o'clock position
Well possums, it all has to do with the mini wash and washing my delicates. You know, spraying from the 12 o'clock position just couldn't reach all the nooks and crannies of my unmentionables so GE took my advice and moved it to the 2 o'clock position. They're still paying me royalties for my old fashioned idea!

Oh, that's a beautiful machine!
I see you boys got through 'helmet day' at the salon again this week.

FilterFlows with GE
Looking great, those blues all tone beautifully, looks like the blue line next to the Thor, looking forwarding to hearing it roar!!! nowthen better keep your helmets on...What powder are you using?? those sudz are looking a "Little Tired" to me!! could it be HE and turn to 30d for perfect cleaning results??

What fun! And that machine is in great shape! What a fantastic find!
Why GE moved the Filter-Flo flume to the 2:00 position start
Oh, oh! oh! I know! I know!, wait a minute(I'm on schpilkes!)
Because (thanks to the WA655V you sent me), the filter flo supply hose on the newer V-12 models comes through the outer tub at the 2:00 position anyway, so the engineers must have said, why waste all that extra rubber making it come out at 12:00 just to make it look like the older machines?
That machine is like butter!
If you wanted to make a video of this machine in action with you spinning the Rotary Fabric Dial, no one would complain.
