Louis My Aunt replaced her Indesit L5 with an Hitachi PS90P in 1982. The only difference to your machine was a woodgrain fascia. BTW, what is your eMail address? Tony |

Like Louis, I was intrigued by the angled impeller. Bottom mounts usually go round and round; side mounts tumble down. Wonder what this side-winder will do. How cool. Eager to see the wild thing you did to the control panel. Have lightened up the bronze & gold Easy pic to showmore of the machine if you're interested. |

If you put a video on Youtube there are some buttons under the video itself. I don't know how they are called in English (my account is set up in Dutch). The one you want is called "Delen" in Dutch, probably "Share" in English. You can post that link here in the window called URL link to share.
There is also a possibility of embedding the video here. The button right to the share button will show you a long link. You can copy that into the normal message frame, not in the URL link to share window. Then the video will be embedded in your message where you have placed it. You can put text above and under it. Looking forward to that video! Louis |

Not off to a good start as there seems to be a memory card missing. Working on fixing this. |

Hi Louis, good machine, quite a wash action with the side mounted impeller, have always found that type of action more vigerous than the smaller middle base mounted ones!!! The spin can seems large like the velo models, does this have just one drain pump and a valve control?? What spin speed would the spinner be?? Carry on the good work, more you do more the comfortable you`ll get with the filming!!! cheers, Mike |

Side mounting seems to give the best of both worlds, up down, back forth, and around. That is the most versatile impeller I've seen with the most original water current patterns. At first, it looked as if you did not load up many items, but as you sluiced them over to the spinner, I see you had a nice size load in there. And the second load--wow!--that was a monster, what we call a Bobload after our friend Appnut. Kic, you really like washers, playing with the controls, switching them back and forth, moving the hose up and down, but real give away was rinsing out the tub with the impeller on. Sweet. Great fun! You're not alone. Couldn't tell if the gentle speed was a shorter stroke or a slower one. Can hardly wait to have my socks blown off, speaking of which, I see you're in flip-flops. What's the temp down there? |
