Hi Mike..
I must get my ar*e in gear and get some info scanned at sometime..I just don't know where to start sometimes, and it would take me a full week scanning to get most of it uploaded.
Sometimes i wonder if it is just easier to scan as per the subject arises. The website i have only has a certain space allowance.
With reference to the manuals, I got given a whole stack a few years ago, and really just thought im going to get rid of these as they where of no interest and got in the way..lol

I understand...

totally, was drowning with it too, I`ve been scanning as stuff comes up, like the Thor earlier, (credit to mathew3203 for that), and Paul is great for sorting/sifting archiving and documenting, I swear he knows what I`v got more than I do - which is great!!

If you want any help with scanning or want to offload the auto washer stuff, or even send it up and let us scan and archive it in batches - we seem to be on a roll with it here at the moment!!

It does beg the bigger question, what do we do, I`m convinced the only way forward is to work together and pool resources....Oh lottery win!!!

Keep Sane - Keep Scanning!!

Many many thanks for the service manual scans!

Hi Andy.

Thanks for taking the time and faff to scan and post the above two manuals!

Its great to be able to get a full electrical lowdown on the 1600 and get a better idea of the 1830.
The divergent parts details for the 1830 dont give any hints that it was purpled in any way, shape or form. Certainly sound like with was a 1600 with white top and dial and a clear door bowl. This confirms what some have said, but certainly adds confusion re the awkward angle photograph that exists of one. Perplexed for sure.

Until a close up photograph of one surfaces, I doubt we will ever know for sure. I have been buying mail order catalogues on disk for a while now and sign of the 1830 there is none. Hotpoint was certainly more interested in peddling the 1850, than of pushing the old fashioned, throwback 1830.

Certainly perceive it as being the runt of the litter.

Thanks again for the scans.
Paul
ps. I have a spreadsheet detailing all of the Hotpoint models covered in this thread, but taken further through to the end of the WM series. If you want a copy - send me an e-mail and I will replay, attaching it.

pps. good luck with the 1828/02 - be great to see some photos of it, when it becomes accessible.

the machine that caused so much frustration last year!

The English Electric version, unfortunately a touch far away - in Greece.
Hey ho.


a nice selection of photos of the 1600 accumulated over the years - but where is the 1830?

Cheers

Thank you for posting the manual, there must be one surviving in a garage, shed or cellar somewhere for one of us to find and bring back to life.

It's not a washing machine...

IT'S A REVOLUTION!!!

Thanks Andy so much for an insight into this futuristic (for it's time) machine!
Hotpoint thought of it all - fast spin speed, iconic design (if only it had of progressed), easy to use controls, a ton of electronics, safety features etc.

One has to survive here somewhere.

Thanks, James.

Hotpoint 1600

Cheers Andy for taking the time scanning and posting this Holy Grail of information, finally the picture is building!!!

Paul, great pics for final reference, weird blue top and no white top pics anywhere!!

It looks like it fills from the sump like the keymatic, I wonder how this looked inside like compared to the English Electric Reversomatic Solid State, would be great to compare the two side by side someday!!!

Happy Reading all...

Hmmm, i'm now wondering....

My question for today is at the time when this machine went out to market, was it Hoover or Hotpoint that had the most advanced machine on the market? We know the 1600 had an electronic control, but did Hoover have this on their machines by this time? or was this introduced on the 3243H series?

Paul, I shall email for you for that info. I am a step closer to getting round to the 1828/02, the dyson CR01 main bearing is almost out so I can get around to reassembling it soon, (What a PITA to remove!). I am going to give the libby a good clean before I do some pics.

Glad you all have enjoyed reading what I have scanned on this machine.

Andy

Which washers with the Hotpoint 1600

chestermikeuk's profile picture
Andy in terms of electronics it would appear Hotpoint refined them first, promoting them as "Electronic" although I still would love to compare the EE Reversomatic Solid State machines to see if Hotpoint advanced those!!

Models out at the same time would be:

TOP LOADERS:
Hotpoint 1504, Servis MK55 and Phillips HN3109

FRONT LOADERS:
Hotpoint 1600, English Electric Reversomat 474, Hoover 3221 Auto, Hoover 3223 Keymatic, Indesit Europa, Philco Ford Biomatic 492, Bendix LTA

TWIN TUBS:
Hotpoint 1466 auto rinse, Hoover 3310 and Servis MK70


Take a look at an earlier thread in the link, this has Which Reports 69 & 1970 along with catalogue images of the time...

EE474

Do you know of any in known existance Mike? Googled it to death but no real idea of what the components of this machine were. I wonder if there was any component sharing with Hotpoint?

Also thought it was quite interesting how the 1600/1830 motor was bottom mounted, and then moved to the top on the liberators / 95 / wm series.

Motors from the 1600/1830

How funny one should bring that up.

Haynes manual mentions that....

Indesit brushed motors (from what I gather low spin 800 and below Indesits used Induction motors especially the ones of the 1970's) from 1100 machines of an era were of GEC manufacture or of EXTREME likeness.

Now checking the motor shown in Haynes as an Early fitment to Indesits against the one shown in the Hpt diagrams do show variances BUT I do wonder if this was actually fitted to the 1600's and Indesit bought the tooling later on to produce their own motors for the 1100 spin Generation Innovations.


Its that little sentence that throws me.

"This motor replaces GEC versions".

1600 stock bought by Indesit after a failed production before the Libeartors to be fitted 10 years down the line to Indesits??????

Notice the odd Carbon brushes holder. Not like Hotpoint square one and theres no image on the service drawings.


sorry pic wont upload here il work on posting it ASAP


Post# 604521 , Reply# 68   6/18/2012 at 13:49 (4,322 days old) by ANDYVIVO (Essex)        

I remember doing brushes on an Indesit motor identical to this image, slightly longer than the Philips motor brush IIRC. Would seem like a long time to wait to start using the tooling for this motor. Unless it took ages for Hotpoint to sell to another firm.

Would be..

chestermikeuk's profile picture
Andy, dont know of any around here, would be great to find a 474 set lurking somewhere, I`m sure these would be the pre-cursor to how the 1600 is made...

Interesting motor theory Rob, the motor looks small and thin like the Phillips until you see the end view, cant quite see from the schematic but it looks to have a squarish taco unit, for some reason I always imagined a big induction size motor on the 1600!!

The Indesits of the same era (Europas?) would have been induction motors wouldnt they??
