"I totally agree with MS today! "

Any day then Mother Superior and Mother General are in agreement is a great day. LOL

Comforting and fun to learn that all across the land, at any given moment, men are staying with their washing machines, never leaving them alive and alone at risk to mechanical attack.

I put your thread up because it's too good for anyone to miss.

Good heavens... This is a good lesson for Suds-Save neophytes like myself!!

Not sure if this is how it was meant to be used, but I when I am using the '51 Kenmore suds return, I tend to wait until the tub has filled up, then add clothes... I noticed during the shakedown testing of this washer that the agitation starts as saved wash water begins to flow back into the tub and, being ever fearful of overloading a vintage washer, I was afraid of damaging the machine by letting it start churning with a half-tub of water. Not sure if this is what all KM/WP suds-savers of the era did, but if the water level is not quite high enough after the return of the suds, the agitation stops and the water continues to flow in until a 'full' level is tripped...

Michael, take heart, your handkerchiefs are now air-conditioned... (ducks and runs)

And the buck stops

At Mother General Jon Charles De Mille , LOL.

Paul, it's so soft and well-worn, a dear favorite, I still wear it just fine, the edges needing just a little tuck. It's actually roomier. Now, if they were bloomers.......well, that's another tale.

Directions I have read in KM lit says to wait till all the water has been returned before adding clothes, and the agitator always starts with the glorious clang of the suds bell. We're still waiting to learn what Norge, Kelvi, etc. do on their suds-back cycle, as it was called on he Kelvi.
