#4 I cannot believe that I actually missed getting a pic of the spin indicator, oh well just an excuse for another wash.

Performance round-up
Throughot the whole wash the machine behaved perfectly with no tell tale leaks on the floor.It kind of belied its age in the the port-hole diameter is quite small, even by the standards of the day and most of the programmes seemed to be 60C or higher - I think apart from wollens, non fast coloureds was the only 40C programme available. The was was noticeably damper than out of my Miele but they were also less creased as well
I am so pleased to have an oppertunity to use this machine. Now I have to work out how I can use all my vintage machines in rotation to help keep the hoses, seals and mechanical parts in good order. Any ideas how often a machine should be used? I now have seven of them plus my Miele daily driver?

How Many Times
Hello Al
i am glad you have had an oppurtunity to use one of the Keymatics, these are too me such special machines in their own right. i think there are a few more 40o programs on the 3062, delicates, pre-wash and possibly synthetic blankets.
I dont know if you are aware but the 3203 adds a pre-wash to every wash (like it or not) some are heated and some are not, i think it is more an exorcise in making sure the clothes are wet as this machine does not have a "top up" function, if the water level drops to low it will cycle to the "high fill" section of the wash
Mat
Same to you aswell, finding the time and isolation to enjoy your machines is hard at times
the thought of at least two keymatics being used on saturday in the Uk is a cheering thought
USE
When i was weller i would normally go to the garage once or twice a week, and try and use a different machine or machines each time, so Al just rotate them as best you can, and if your not using machines just spin the drum by hand so you dont get kinks in the drive belts, also if it going to freeze for a few days empty the sumps.
As you know at some point i fitted plumbing arrangements and drainage pipes in the garage because it was the only way to have at least 8 machines connected up, so maybe a re-design of your storage space Al ;-)
thanks for the pictures of both machines they look great and i know you will enjoy them

I’m so glad that the weekend went well and every one enjoyed it.
Rest assured all the machines are in safe hands.

Hi Gary
what with the dark evenings and being away at weekends PLUS a bloody bed being in the way, I am somewhat restricted with the machines that travelled to Derby.
This evening is the first opportunity I have had to even look at the Logic set, but here they are.
The A3794 Computer Logic 1300...

One day they will reside alongside the matching dishwasher, which is in daily use at Robs - the D7190 Super Crystaljet Dishwasher completes the top of the 1990 Hoover range...

I will try and get photos of the other two machines tomorrow, but just to reitterate what others have said - thanks to Gary for saving such a great selection of machines.
To think that that 3243H, amongst the many, wouldnt exist today had you not been there to save it!
The A3190 looks great in the kitchen and the dryer looks perfectly at home in its new setting and pleased that Mal sorted out the other bodyside.
Happy Electron-ing

thanks matey, I am very happy that all the machines (including your A3110) are in safe hands, the worst thing would gave been putting them on ebay and not being taken by collectors.
Paul
I am very glad you have the complete line up for the that logic computer range, and thanks for pictures they look great.
I was lucky to work in a place where i could take items and save them and pass them onto group members, nothing greaves me more than seeing good qaulity gear being trashed in the name of re-cycling (what a load of bollox that is), so over the years i saved quite a lot of laundry equipment etc so my time in the game achieved something.
So thanks to everyone again

'Achieved something'
you achieved lots and you are still in the game. You've got to keep your electrons in top notch fettle - you aren't out of the game - they will keep you well and truly in it!
Curse these dark evenings - dont make for good photographs - slimstar to the left and L5 to the right.
