With a jammed, ruptured spin can and those buggered bellows, surely this machine is basically scrap? Strip it for usable parts and weigh the rest in.

I sent my German friend the information, but he is away today so I don't expect an answer soon.
My friend Stephan from Germany sent me this drawing. Is this of any help?

Many thanks Louis for contacting your friends and searching out the info, if he has any more pages or written instructions that they can share that would be magic. We are trying to establish if the spin can is screwed onto the shaft or simply slotted onto a groove. That's the great thing about AutomaticWasher site if we need information for the hobby then all we need to do is ask and it appears !!
This AEG Lavalux twintub is rare in the UK especially this one with the Needle Spray Tube rinsing etc, we took a collective view that it is worth the time, effort and commitment to see if we can resurrect this fine machine !!
Cheers, Mike

It would fantastic if this machine could be fully restored to working condition, they are great rare twinny. I had one many years ago which I collected from a couple in Bristol funny enough we held the same surname.
Unfortunately I got rid of mine as it was too far gone to do anything with but retain a few parts.
Good Luck

Hi Louis
Can I echo Mike's thanks for providing the drawing. It is really helpful and hopefully will give some clues on how to dismantle it all. If there is any possibility of a better shot of the picture or a close up of the spin can connection that would be much appreciated as it is just a bit too blurry to be able to see clearly. Also if there is anything else in the manual that would be great too. I really want to get this machine restored if possible as its such a beast but will be great to use.
Hi Keith
Did you get any use out of yours initially or was it gone from the start? Richard managed to do a bit of washing in it originally so hopefully it will wash again.
cheers

The picture of parts were sent to me by Whatsapp. I have asked to mail it to me in original size.
Morning Steve,
Unfortunately mine was to far gone, well that's what I thought back then and I wasn't over keen on the look of the machine, I thought it was to big and clumsy looking, with hindsight I was I had kept it as it was ok and just needed some cosmetic work. It worked fine but didn't use it, just stripped it down and kept some parts.
Cheers
