Thanks for posting this Mike, someday I might get around to having a look at mine, that big chassis is very intimidating though.
I wonder what that curious hose arrangement in reply 19 is for? I have never seen one of those before.
The other thing is that the bridge shown for model 0319 is common enough (this is a piece of plastic which clips on to the RH side of the spinner and LH side of wash tub which, in theory, allows you to transfer wet washing from tub to spinner without all the water running down in between. In theory .......
However, unless I am getting my numbers wrong, surely the 307 is the original single tub with wringer. I did not even think it was the same height as the spinarinse never mind being bridged to it

Bridge in place
This is how it looks with the two units linked.
I might add that although the spinner does not pump out it does actually run, but the single tub goes like a champ and does get used reasonably often

Wow thanks Mike. Will help loads so might have a go at it this weekend.
I have to say I haven't seen that hose arrangement either and can only assume it was to allow you to mix the temperature when you were filling the tub but that's just my guess. I've got a length of rubber outlet hose which I think was for the hotpoint top loaders where you used plastic elbows to make the hose suit your plumbing so I'm hoping that will work. Will keep you posted
Cheers Steve

Hi Steve.
Congratulations on your newly acquired 3004A. Looks in great external fettle too and, with the pages supplied by Mike, will be in fine internal fettle as well!
I haven't the brochure for the 3004A, but do have ones containing the earlier 3004 with the earlier blue enamel lid and dating from 1963.
Enjoy!
Paul

A lovely brochure indeed. Thanks for posting Paul.
Interesting that the badge on the 3004 is on what would be the side of mine and I did love the blue lids. Not sure if you can pin a date on this via the serial number below

I think from a peek in the brochure that the can rim should be white but this one is far from it at the moment!!

"SpinaRinse"
Christ do i love my Spinarinse. Not as old as the one in question but it sure comes in handy in the winter time when i do a lot more tumble drying.

SpinaRinse no more
Reading through this thread, i could kick myself. Last summer my other half was putting the pressure on to clear a bit of space in the kitchen, so i gave in and sold mine. I think it found its way to another members collection, so at least i know its gone to a good home.
I have a question which kind of ties in with this thread, here goes.....
Having sold the spinarinse we soon after moved from our flat to a house with a garden, and i cheekily pestered my fella into us getting a twin tub for me to work on as a little project. I managed to get hold of a Hoovermatic 3334, which is just lovely. However the pump valve on the washdeck is not doing its thing so whichever position it is in it fills the spinner!
Ive seen an earlier thread related to this, but my problem is the screws that fix it have all corroded and lost their heads. Is there any advice as to how to remove it and does anyone know where to obtain the relevant spare part. If i cant clean it up?
Apologies for this long winded question and thanks in advance for any help.

When screws loose their heads
Is there no head at all on the screws?
Everyone knows that if there is a bit left then tap the screwdriver with a hammer to give the screwdriver a better grip on the screw but what I didn't know until recently when I was shown , was that it works much better if someone else is tapping the screwdriver with a hammer constantly while the other person removes the screw.
As Austin (Ozzie) and I both found out , it really does work.
That might help to get it off , I'm afraid I can't help with the repair.

Hey Lance
Hi lance,
Thanks for the reply. I'll certainly give that a try. But they seem completely gone. Do you think i could drill them out?
Just out of interest, ive found a company in south africa that stock replacement OCV's. i wondered if you or anyone else has had dealings with them?
Ps lance,
Did you buy a spinarinse from an ebayer in south london?
If so i hope she's holding up well?

My spinarinse
I got about two years ago but I can't remember where it came from as I didn't collect it , it was sent to me.
I do however remember that the guy who sold it to me was called Nick Taylor .
Why?
As for drilling the screws out , I have never tried to do such a thing but I'm sure some other member can help you better than me on that point.
