Do you mean the rollers in the wringer? And twisting the bar on top of the wringer housing does not reset them into wringing position? |

Geoff its good to your moniker in the thread. Isn't it time for some Maytag summer Gyration complete with pictures? |

Geoff, it's great to see you post again. Really. You've been missed... Yes, I would love to see the red Harem but haven't been pushing as I imagine you've been busy with other things. For me, going thru the 52 AMP has been fun with 'learn as you go' action!
Maybe the wringer head needs a little TLC to help the mechanism function? RCD |

It was in the "locked up" position. Now it is not. Have a great weekend...I will be doing laundry. Mike |

To reiterate what Geoff said about the rollers being locked apart, these are the instructions directly from the owners manual.
To lock rollers apart: 1. Release tension by pressing the red or turquoise release bar on either side. 2. Place hand under upper roll, raise the cap approximately 1 inch-and 3. Turn reset handle one quarter turn clockwise.
To place tension on the rollers again: 1. Press red or turquoise bar-and 2. Simultaneously turn reset handle one quarter turn counter-clockwise. 3. When cap drops into place, turn reset handle one quarter turn clockwise to once again place tension on the rolls. |
