A friend of me had an Hover New Wave 1600 with 1600rpm, it does spinning in the Finalspin from 800 up to 1600rpm in only 12seconds. that sounds like with an vaccumcleaner when you push the on button xD

Philips, Ebay

Bought that machine on Ebay for donor parts. It turned out to be a well used
AWB088 from 1983. Ideal parts donor for our Super Variatronic as all mechanicals are the the same. Just in the process of refurbing the PM Polymotor with new bearings and brushes.

Hi Anton.

Glad that your AWB098 now has a suitable spares donor machine - yep, that AWB088 did look rather well used!

Although always a shame to part out a machine, it's a neccessary part of machine preservation.
People can relax a bit though, as there is a sound AWB088 in safe hands already.

Happy tinkering with the 98!
Paul

Morning Lance,

This is a Thor Automagic, it was the last model made, which was under the Parnall brand name, model 244. It was launched in 1958, by which time they had decided to do away with the dishwashing element !!

I have had two of these machines, however the major fault is the friction clutch always goes. As a child the lady we stayed with in Cornwall had one and nicknamed it the "Thumper" i use to whiz round to watch her do the washing most days.

The 3 pedals go left to right - Spin-Stop-Wash and by lifting the middle pedal introduced the heater. This machine had a sudz saver ability. I would go for it, but it looks in a bit of a sorry state , and being in cream makes it twice as hard to get re-sprayed.

Hey, WasherLover24,

Did you have any luck with winning that Hoover Logic 1300 AutoWasher you posted above?

I studied the serial number of it, & checked in my Logics brochure I have here at home.

I have singled out the model number, it's a Logic A3790.

I hope you got it, I've got the same as the A3790, looks like it, only mine's the special edition, the Logic Premier 1250 Washer Dryer A8576, from 1990

I've added a pic below for you. Purchased March 31st 2011, arrived 12th April 2011, fully working/installed permanently in August 2011.

The Philips is a spin drainer model for sure. You dont see an AWB088 for ages and then two surface within the month!


Hi Al.
Re the Electrolux - tiz under observation for sure! It looks really nice, but I am not throwing money around at the moment, so will have to see whather the reserve is in any way, shape or form realistic.

There are two systems of spin-draining. The older ones had a system that would try to get up to speed as fast as possible, already on the first increment on the timer they speed up.
The newer ones start spinning at a low speed and keep doing that until they move on to the next increment on the timer. The drum is empty by then and the machine can easily increase the spin speed now. The latter system is ofcourse cheaper.

You can tell which one it is by looking at the programmes. The newer ones have a spin only cycle. The older ones weren't able to do a spin without a drum full of water, so the older ones only had a rinse and spin cycle, no spin only cycle on those machines.

"spin-only" spin-drainers

candyd10_14x's profile picture
Hi Foraloysius! Interesting, the older models attempted high speed whilst spinning water??? I bet that wasn't good for the motors, or were they built to withstand the strain?

I'm not sure which model it is but I think it's the Indesit L6 which has a spin cycle but it says not to use it for "spin-only", what would happen if you were to use it for spin-only, would the machine just shoot straight into spin causing the load to attach itself to one side of the drum?

Brandon

If my memory serves me right the Indesit L6 and L10 were not a spin drain models. The L8 and L5 variants were but only span at 380rpm. Later BOL spin drain Indesits span at 400rpm........very entertaining to watch.

Oh my mistake, might have been an L5, or 091, whichever one it was, it was one of the "Self-cleaning" pump model indesits.

How do to you too!

How does that spin drain system work? I'm guessing that it drains a little bit of water out of the final rinse and starts distributing whilst draining at the same time? As an older machine I expect it uses a lot of water gor the final rinse so it must be entertaining to watch!

Thanks

Hotpointfan,

paulc's profile picture
The spin drain on Indesits works as follows: The drain pump is attached and driven by the motor but only reaches the speed to pump out when the machine kicks into spin, see posted youtube link.As you can see the water level just comes to the door boot in these machines and you will notice no faffing about distributing the load, goes from tumble to spin in one jump. As for water usage I am not sure but they did do five rinses to make up for the poor interim spin speed. If you owned one of these machines in the UK you almost certainly needed a separate spinner as you could wring water out of most things after the final spin. Hope that helps.

Brandon, the L5 is the model shown in this clip, but there are video's of the later 091 and 092 on youtube.

Spin Drain....

chestermikeuk's profile picture
Cushions the clothes against the sides of the drum, tends to get them more even for better stability, flushes out any final residues as well.....AND is great to watch!!!

The motors where small but powerful Permag motors (Permenant Magnet Motors) with a ten yr guarantee back in the 80`s...

Indesit Spin Drain

The Indesit spin drain machines have the drain hose routed inside the machine & exit at the top to ensure that the water can't syphon out in wash mode. My daily driver, a 1979 Indesit L8LI speeds up as the water drains out. It has a long spin (+/- 7 min) after the main wash, short spin (50 sec) after rinses I - IV) and long spin after rinse V. The later 091 & 092 machines spun at 550 rpm.

Hi paul! thanks, it does seem interesting how the machine doesn't get unbalanced!

I've also found another model that I think was supposed to look like the Indesit L5, it's a HAJDU Bio Superautomat.

Mike, how fast does the Philips speed up to after the spin drain? Is it 1000rpm?
