Hello all,
I recently received a phone call from a good friend that asked if we were interested in a old Kenmore dryer... I told him that we were interested, and to hold on to it if he could. Well this weekend we finally got around to seeing this new member of our collection, here are the two pictures that i snapped of it quickly. I was informed that the reason why it was not in use anymore is that the timer is not functioning anymore, any thoughts ? The dryer looks fairly good shape, just needs a cleaning... I am hoping that it is worth saving, will find out more when we get it home. Hope that everyone had a good weekend, Mike |

Of the models called "Frog Eye", not fully sure about, but I think they did run just thanks to a simple timer shutting power to the heat for cool tumble in the end and on the left there is the heat selector...

So not frog eye? Oppps... Sorry, I thought it was their name...... To me sounds more like the knobs in this model resembles cow or bull eyes indeed, while the other models you tell looks like frog eyes being more big and darker... Some examples: /http://www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?8821 www.automaticwasher.org/cgi-bin/TD/TD-VIEWTHREAD.cgi?1261 So what actually is a frog eye what is not? |
