What does a 'Shredmore' look like?

[bobbi]

I agree, Dadoes, or something is wrong with the way the agitator is sitting in the machine, but how could that happen?
Anyway, my Kenmore 90 Series never shredded anything, but it was hard on the clothing. I just recently purchased an LG FL machine and can now wash hubby's filthy work jeans, works shirts and hoodies together. With the Kenmore I could not, because the shirts and hoodies would come out with jean lint all over them. I hope I never feel the need to go back to an old school water hogging TL machine again. If I do, it will be a wringer washer, so that I can save suds.

Wow!

First I cant believe this initial post of mine will be 8 years old on March 20th!
Since then, I got a shredmore, and I find on normal speed it does a great job without shredding, though sometimes when unloading, clothes snag on the vanes on the base of the agitator. I added the KA agitator because it looks better

MAYTAG A407 AGITATOR

Anybody to help me about a Maytag A407 with an agitator like this one DADoES show in this link? I have to work in the inner tub, but I need to release the agitator first, but it doesn't show any nut either inside nor by side. I'd tryed to release it by force, but it doesn't work. How to do?

So, just because this thread is already here...

I have been watching our scrap pile for a machine I could use for car rags, mop heads, general grungy stuff and found a series 90 kenmore...

The machine seems to be in ok shape except when there is a full load of water, the tub won't spin or when the tub is empty, I can stop the tub from a full spin. Also, I can turn the tub by hand as well.

The techs just keep telling me to buy a speed queen and forget about old crap, so I am wondering what you guys think..

Would it be the clutch / brake tube assemblies that need to be replaced or something with the washer drive block or what?

It fills properly, it drains properly, has a very strong agitation and I think the motor coupling is ok, but I'll double check that in a bit.

It just has the spin issues as mentioned above.

yeah, sounds like a new clutch is in order.....actually a simple task to replace it....

this video will help you.....

Does anyone have a Part # for the Kitchen Aid agitator? Is there an equivalent Whirlpool agitator?

 

[yogitunes]

the larger base Dual Action was exclusive to the Kitchen Aid's only, but they will fit other direct drives....

some think these should be operated on MED or LOW speed......but I have run it on HIGH with no issues.....your mileage may vary....

Looks like there are variations on this one - the auger is similar but different in post #40. You can see tiny "teeth" on the auger edge - not sure if I like that idea. Looked at your ad, an contemplating purchase...

 

[yogitunes]

for one, I am not a big fan of turquoise.....at that time, the base, which would not have been seen during a wash load, as long as the top portion was white, I was OK with it.....

that 'stepped' auger is from a Whirlpool....

given a choice, I would have like to use the one from a Kenmore's 'PLUS' dual action, with the tilted vanes on the auger, but not all are interchangeable...

since then, the all blue one moved on to another member for his Kitchen Aid, as I was able to find a white base, and used the 'stepped' auger....

top portion part number.....3363003-W....

my machine has Triple dispensers, so all I needed was a plain cap....

[mrcreosote]

Just to cover the bases, my machine agitator that I want up grade is the same as in post #2 - it has the big cylindrical dispenser with wedge/snap green ring. Would my dispenser fit the ones we're talking about? (I don't use it anyway so it's a moot point.) It is a Kenmore Series 80.

 

[yogitunes]

the only thing that will possibly fit or be used from your present agitator is the hold down bolt....

that dispenser will not fit....

as in reply 67....that is one complete unit....dispenser and all....

Thanks for the eBay deal! Very interested to see the difference.
