It could be anywhere between 1983 and 1988. It may not have the entertainment of the solid tub machines, but nontheless it will put on a decent show. It looks brand new. Have a good one, James |

Pretty good year for Marathon's", I wonder if this was about the time Sears became "brand central". Of course Sears always put the "hard sell" on the Kenmore products. |

The pin in the agitator drive block was not designed to be removed, normally on these you just replace the shaft and block. Even the current SQ TLers can be difficult to do major repairs on after they have a few years of use and corrosion on them. They are a little like old Norge built TLers, too many pot-metal parts exposed to water. Fortunately the current TL SQs are much better built than the 1980s machines and will not likely need many major repairs for a long time at which point most will just be replaced and recycled. |
