MAYTAG AGITATORS  The neat thing about MT agitators is that they are all somewhat interchangeable including the ones used in the AMP style washers as far as fitting on the agitator shaft. At some point in the 1980s all MTAs started using a retaining screw, this was to prevent their flying off when the washer was in use. Usually when one came off it was because someone had removed it and not pushed it down all the way on the retaining ring or the ring was worn or missing. But they would fly off at times and their were a few injuries associated with this. I have seen times where this happened and the flying agitator would knock the lid off the lid balls and the lid would be chipped when it hit the basement floor. This type of event did not make for a happy house wife when it was a less than year old MT washer.
But Toms right the Load Sensor agitator is not a great performer in the older washers unless you at least speed the action up a little. It probably is a lot more gentile however than the over sized Powerfin agitator with its long strokes tearing at delicate fabrics in the one speed A107. | ||

If I am washing a delicate item in a Maytag, especially at a low water level, I generally put one of the short fin agitators in to further gentle the agitation. | ||

Great Videos Louie........
I think the LoadSensor helps with larger loads that would slow down a powerfin.....nice design as it only kicks in when needed.... lint filter.....with proper sorting, and laundering methods....you wont even mis it, or notice lint on the clothes....... as for fabric softner dispensers, there is the Downy ball, but then again, your one of the lucky few who have a machine in your kitchen......its easy to monitor if you wanted to add softner manually great machine otherwise......basic yet fully functional...it fits the bill for FabricMatic | ||

My ever faithful Maytag has found a new home.
Even after all these years, a quick wipe and it's still as pristine as it was 6 years ago...
