Any idea what year this washer came out? Is it an ad from another country? I've never seen a clock on a washer before, is anyone aware if any other manufacturer offered this option? Sure looks to be a TOL washer, does anyone have one in their collection?

Thanks!
Duane

I believe it's a 1956 Model

I believe it's a 1956 model, and one of our members, Lightedcontrols, has such a machine and has posted a You Tube video of it.

The manuals section of this site has a service manual for the 1956 ABC-O-Matic.

This POD is a treat . . .

What a nice photo of a rare and beautiful washer! Did Kelvinator use the same transmission type as ABC?

Washers with timers/clock

I believe the 1957 or 1958 Norge DispensoMat had a clock/timer for delayed washing also.  A former member here had a matched set of these.

The "Delay Start" Clock also seems to be "ahead of its time"!

How and when did ABC become Kelvinator? Or did these companies share a patent?
