I only serviced D&M machines and never heard of a flushaway drain. What did that mean? |

Actually Tom in the 1955 and 1956 GE's that I have the main drive motor cuts out during drain and uses a separate drain pump. The earlier models were the ones where the timer was driven by the main motor and had the 'yibblet slinger' feature; I don't recall exactly what year that changed... In '54 GE tried a reversible motor that would act as a pump and drive the impeller, but that probably didn't work well since they brought in a separate drain pump in '55. |
