I posted a topic about this machine a while ago but can't find it. Maybe it's been archived coz I didn't get back in time, computer problems I'm afraid.
Anyway I've got the FW133W model which I bought new in the mid 80's I believe and it's still going - original motor and original electronics, have replaced pump, belt and motor brushes several times, door seal once and motor bearing on none pulley end (couldn't get the pulley off to replace bearing that end), other than that it's all original.
It has just overfilled and I can't find out how to pump (only) the water out. I've been trying to find a manual online for ages with out success despite searching hi and low. If anyone could point me towards one on the net I'd very much appreciate it, and or if any one has got a manual and can tell me how to pump (only) the water out that would be really great.
Thanks.

Best option is to pull the machine out and lower the drain hose into a bucket, when the bucket is full place the drain hose higher up and start agene until empty.
As the machine displayed an F6 error code, which I believe includes door switch and water level monitor I disconnected the water level pressure switch pipe at the switch end and drained it through that, which also enabled me to clear any blockage in the pressure switch water level bottle but thanks for the suggestion.
I'd still like to get hold of the user manual and or a copy of the fault codes.
