FIRST WASH NORGE 20 LB

[fridgiman]

Here it is as promised the first wash in the Norge 20lb. I hadn't had time to take it apart and give it a good cleaning, but I did run it through a normal cycle, hot water with detergent and 2 cups of bleach to clean and disinfect the tub. So please excuse the dirt.

Adding detergent.

BURPALATION !!!

 

[fridgiman]

Love the noise the burpalator makes---- Fffitt-fffitt-fffitt-- with every forward stroke of the agitator.
Please excuse the dirt.

Just washing away. Great rollover.

Does a strange thing for the drain. Does a half tub gravity drain, then begins to spin-drain and starts the spray rinse. And this is the normal cycle, not the permanent press. Does this also in the final drain-spin.

 

[fridgiman]

Sray rinse.

 

[fridgiman]

Hard spin.

 

[fridgiman]

You probably guessed it-------- Rinse fill

More of that fun Burp-a-lation.

rinsing with the filter pan in place.

That crazy half drain-spin thing again.

 

[fridgiman]

Full-throtle final spin.

 

[fridgiman]

All done !

I hope everyone enjoyed the pics. I have since taken the machine apart and given it a good cleaning. It cleaned up real well--- nice and white and shiney! I bought some model paint and plan to touch up some scratches on the control panel. Still looking for the fabric softener dispenser which will complete the set.

Thanks---- Jim

Nice machine, what is that detergent you are using and can you give us a shot of the control panel?

The neutral drain runs until the water level pressure switch resets, then spin starts. You can start it early by turning the water level to reset ... although it might switch back to neutral drain if the water kicks up enough pressure during spin to trigger the switch again.

These are such fun washers - and scrub like crazy!

One caveat on starting the spin early - do allow some of the water to drain, especially with a full tub, as it will throw water out of the washer around the top of the tub if allowed to swirl up high enough...
