My Maytag family that is! I thought I would take a couple shots of "the family" while they are all here. I am driving to Phoenix tomorrow and taking two of them with me, so this is the only opportunity for this! In front we have the A50 twins, behind them from the left are the '80 806, the '75 806 (which is starting it's journey to Pennsylvania tomorrow) and the Avocado 608, which is going to NEW MEMBER "washmeup" in Scottsdale!! In back is the '80 806's mate, the 808 and the lovely A700/DE701 pair... who will be celebrating their 47th year together this December! (and they are celebrating with me... YAY!) |

I just love the lighted control panels on the Maytags. The wringer looks pretty good for it's age. |

I bet you're running out of space to store so many Maytags. Don't worry, you can send some to my apartment. You can be sure I'll take a good care of them. LOL |

QSD-Dan, I was not trying to show you up or anything, I just had to share the "family photo" while I had the opportunity! Justin, Yes this was the primary reason to coming back to Phoenix, to pick up a set that has been waiting for me with my name on them. Rich & Ben, I've had the Maytag wringer for a few months now. I got it home and plugged it in only to have smoke bellow from the motor after running for just 15 seconds! I was so bummed that I did not post anything about it! So now you all know that I also have the 1964 Maytag wringer (with pump) but it needs a motor! Gary: Actually it's not the entire machine (Shhhhh!) it's only the top! (I have the matching dryer top too!) Hehehe Christopher: It was very nice meeting you and you are very welcome! I'm happy I was able to bring a vintage Maytag into you life so you can kick that Bosch FL to the curb! (DUCKS & RUNS..... ) LOL |

Kevin, When Gary (abcomatic) and I started working on his Easy Washer/Spinner back in March, his motor started smoking immediately when we turned the machine on. I took the motor off, and brought it to my brother, who worked on these things frequently in the past. We carefully dissembled the motor - it's not that complicated. We cleaned everything up, and he used some fine sandpaper to clean up the contacts points. Re reassembled the motor, and it worked beautifully. I reinstalled the motor on the Easy, and Gary had done many loads in that machine since. Moral of the story - I wouldn't throw the Motor out with the wash water quite yet. Have a go at just cleaning it up first. You might be surprised, and save a bundle of money. Mike |
