this one is a gravity drain my other kd-12 (also from cleveland) has a pump mounted on the bottom of the motor. this will be fine though, all i have to do is drill another hole in the floor!

motor looks good considering how old it is. and hobart cinti. still has pump seals left for these models. i bought one for my other kd-12 in case it ever leaks, will do the same for this one if i need it.

i love the way that little pump powers that huge heavy cast iron spray arm. and the motors on these are only 1/4 hp.

since it came with an extra spray arm i'm gonna paint it and use it as a wall hanging! my friend walt on this site (18 mill st) says appliances make wonderful furniture! hence one of the rollermatics he gave me is now an "end table".

bottom rack is also in great shape for being over 50 years old!

Just in case...
If anyone wants one (Soberleaf, I am looking in your direction) there is a Maytag belt-drive WU4?? dishwasher at Building Value on Gilbert Ave. in Cincinnati. I love the KD-12. I think it is the prettiest dishwasher, and one of the more capable ones too. Someday, I'll just have to get one! Keep finding them, Dave | ||

Classic KA for sure!
Another good find, there, Pete! Good for you on being able to negotiate the price down to a reasonable one! I got to see a KA like this up close and personal at Mike's (dishwashercrazy) in July and I was amazed at how ruggedly built these machines are! I think you can safely use this one with no fear of ever messing it up! Have fun with it!!
