Hi guys,
Since we've discovered a local Hoover enthusiast, I thought i'd do a video of my 1970 Hoover 565. This is the 2nd model down from the TOL 585. Heater and suds save model. The specs of this machine is: Claimed capacity: 16lb Agitation speed: Regular - 99 OSC Gentle - 66 OSC Spin speed: Regular - 565 RPM Gentle - 365 RPM These machines are based on the US Blackstone design. The '500' Series were the only series to do a spin-drain. All successive models had a neutral drain. Hoover washers dominated the Australian market for many years and this design with this washing action lasted till about 1987. Before anybody asks: yes, this machine is supposed to have a blue agitator and I do have a spare, however, I've found it almost impossible to get the chrome cap off and until such a time that any major work needs to be done, I've decided not to tamper with it as it's working just fine. P.S: if you hear me talking to someone, it's my pesky 4 yr old neighbour who was about to disturb the tripod! Cheers Leon

Had no idea That these beasts had such long spray rinses! They must have produced some seriously suds-free laundry! Nice one Leon! | ||

Wow That wash action certainly looks much more effective than any other top loader I've seen in action. Very nice! | ||
