clutch ?

hi everyone, im new to this website.. i have a rimflo beaumark like posted. a question.. it seems to be working okay but the spin cycle seems very slow. the belt is tight and in good shape. is it possible that the clutch needs servicing? if so, can it be serviced/ cleaned/ restored? or is something else the cause? much thx *also have a beaumark hd dryer, not matching, a bit newer (model 63361toww) *im in toronto

Thank you for posting this. That access panel makes me imagine what Filter Flos might have looked like if production continued into the early and mid 2000s. It has that look of the Maytag Performas.

My mom's fall 1978 GE Fflo, the perm press cycle did the same thing of spraying cold water on the load until the fill rinse once the water level was low enough to allow water to enter via filling.

Was the Rimflo as good at removing lint as the Filter Flo?

I'd say filter flo. Rim flo was just to sell BOL machines but better than nothing.

GE washer

That reminds me of a GE washer.

"GE washer"

That's because it's based on the Hotpoint version of the GE washer.
