Yep -

Slow speed is PUURFECT for that agitator.....

Yea - the fast agitation - too fast.....

Hope you find out what the squeaking is.

 

[yogitunes]

the squeeking is most likely from the suspension and snubbers wearing a mark in one location...sometimes hard to correct

that agitator is actually called a "SureScrub"

 

[DirectDriveDave]

Wow, that is indeed some good turnover with that speed.

 

I must keep my standard WP agitator though. High speed is more fun to listen to/look at, so I think. heh

 

 

And, thanks, Martin! I'll probably do some searching for that color with the standard base.

 

[speed_queen75]

Rumor has it.

That the new belt drive Kenmore washer with the triple action agitator I'm the purty blue has a base as big as this kitchen aid one. I've yet to see one though.

DADoES

The serial number for this machine is CL 4405237

 

[DADoES]

 
44th week of 2001.

Good heavens, Glenn! What voodoo mathematics did you employ to decode the date of manufacture from the serial number?

 

[DADoES]

Serial Numbers

 
LOL.  I have a decoding chart, and the info can also be found online.

First letter is manufacturing facility.  C = Clyde OH.
(There may be an extra leading letter for "foreign"/3rd-party manufacture such as the Duets made in Germany.)

2nd character is year. L = 2001
Prior to 1990 the coding was 0 through 9 per the last digit, i.e. 0 = 1970, 9 = 1979.  Letters were added in 1990 to reduce repetition of the pattern.

3rd & 4th position (numbers) is the week of the designated year.

Remainder of the number is production sequence in that week.

Being that there is repetition in the coding, it's sometimes necessary to get a visual on the machine or also reference the model number to differentiate, for example, 1970 from 1980.
