Same basic meaning, but many neutral variations on the root. If you speak English and German, you can follow Yiddish. If you have Yiddish well enough to speak it, you can pick up modern German in two shakes, but not English. The Germanic group is not exactly the most logically structured language group. I referred to "anschleppen" which is modern German, not Yiddish, partly because the pumping mechanism in the washer has a "Mitnehmer" and just couldn't resist the word play after Sam mentioned those two drains. (Mitnehmen, the root, means literally: to take with...) |

The fehrkockta timer cam assembly is cracked in half and allowing this to happen. I took the timer apart and it crumbled in my hands. I've pulled the 'tator out (had to use the agi-tamer) and now out to the curb it goes. If anyone would like this machine, let me know ASAP as trash pickup is on Tuesday. You'll need a replacement timer and agitator. |

Very cool Robert. We had that same Hoover Quick Broom growing up! Very noisy, but had lot's of suction! Nice machine; we had the same one, sans the sudsaver, at my house growing up. Too bad about the timer. Nice use of yiddish, too! :) |

I like the Eureka vac, but of course I LOVE the Kenmore. I believe I have a spare timer for that washer, and I just had my hands today on two spare gold Roto-Swirls. Just sent you an e-mail Robert! :-) James is right, this would be a nice consolation after loosing 21 washers this week to thieves. Gordon |

Robert, just curious, are you going to use the agitator in a different machine, or is it just for your collection? It's one of the most effective yet gentle agitators ever designed, it would be a shame to not put it to use. |

I have the same problem with the dial not really the same, but the plastic piece fell apart I was wondering is there any part shop that you would know of, or any suggestions on this dial. I am afraid to even take it off because the darn thing might even get worse here is the dial. The c part is dropping back and forth aaaah. yuck ! Darren k |

You could probably fit the pieces back together with CA glue. It can be purchased at any hobby shop. People routinely us it to build model airplanes, so it shouldn't be a problem with plastic parts. NorfolkSouthern |

but the plastic piece fell apart I was wondering is there any part shop that you would know of, or any suggestions on this dial. Either you will have to glue it back together or find one off of another parts machine Darren, I did check my dial stash for it when you first posted the machine and I don't have that one. Robert, just curious, are you going to use the agitator in a different machine, or is it just for your collection? It's just a play-toy Jeff, since it was one of the three agitators of the three washers we had growing up. I'll use it every once in a while for old time sake. I can't say its my favorite. |

We've been dealt a little challenge today but we're rolling with it.... The timer I have for this gem of a washer had a bent shaft, courtesy of a lousy packing job and a careless ebay seller a while back. I bought a whole box of misc. timers and they were all thrown together, unpacked. Naturally, this was the only one with apparent damage. I tried to correct the bend, but said timer didn't cooperate and now I have a broken timer thanks to cheap soft metal (it's a 9-step process in admitting in here that you've broken something!!!). To the rescue is a parts house I work with that had a new timer on the shelf in obsolete inventory. It's mine and on it's way, so now not only does this beaut Kenmore get a replacement timer, it gets a NEW one. Hopefully I'll be able to take the part from the old timer and correct the spare used timer just in case.... YAY! (learned that term on here, btw....) Gordon |
