hi mark i use these machines whenever i go to the laundromat, they are very fun to use and great at cleaning. The ones i use have both the surgilator type agitator and the straight vane, i like to use the surgilator type tho. The cycle is pretty straight forward, about a 10 min wash on regular and then a spin drain and spray rinse then deep rinse and spin drain and final spin. I love em and would be good to have one in your collection. |

the way the single dial works is it has three temps, hot warm and cold and they each have a cycle with them so if u select hot its a normal wash, warm is perm press and cold is 'special', the perm press is a normal wash with a shorter spin time i believe, no idea what special is i think it just means cold should only be for special things not everyday wear. there are a row of indicator lights next to the dial, top is 'in use', second is 'final spin' and i think the last one is 'out of balance' i have used speed queens with this type of control but mainly the control in the pic below, which is the next model up. The speed queen u may get will have a straight vane agi, really cool as the top disappears under the water level slightly so you get some cool action. Btw, if ur around, come onto msn and chat :) matt |

A good friend of mine became Daddy to his first child 2 weeks ago so as soon as I get chance to I want to come up to see him. He is 30 miles away from you so I could pop in for a brew, id love to see a good old SQ. Remember them as a kid on welsh Campsites but never used them. They seem to be extinct around here. Rob
