Here comes the suds... Soap has been added...filling is continued...this just plugs into a standard outlet and has a rubber hose for fill and another rubber hose to drain...the soap was a half cap of liquid detergent...the load a bunch of my shop towels!

Hoover SplashMatic
Hi Tom Nice machine, you had the benefit of colour on your machines whereas the UK models just had trim colours... The spinner cover looks good all one piece metal, the sloping ridge gives the illusion of a much bigger top....The spincan looks like our earlier models with holes spaced evenly around, ours had sections of holes etc...Is the top of the spincan plastic or metal?? This is our equivalent model , the Hoover 3314 nicknamed "The Washdog" in the 70`s adverts...the link is to Hoover first twinny the Hoover 3174, produced 1957.

noise... The agitator motor is very quiet...but the spinner...yikes! It sounds like a freight train...odd because the motor looks like a Constellation motor and the Connie was a very quiet vacuum. --Tom | ||

The spin motor, I have been informed, is a Dial-A-Matic motor. Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||

I'm just going by what I was told....I did not mean to imply that I was necessarily correct. Lawrence/Maytagbear | ||
