It is being advertised on CL as an A806 but I don't think it is.  It soesn't have the right number of buttons...

The button layout matches an A406, but I don't see the little pilot light above the dial. Anyone have a better idea?

806?

No way is this a 806. What it is is a large tub single speed "fabrimatic" machine.

Ithink it may be a 407, but I'm not sure.

A107, or A108. Single speed, has the AUTOMATIC filler instead of speed buttons.

A308, 1 speed, big blue tub, series 1 or 2, made 1975 or after. My take on it.

I think Brian nailed it. It's an A308. The button configuration is completely wrong for the A107 or A108

A308 is also my guess. Nothing else in the '06, '07, or '08 line up matches the button sequence or timer sequence.

Yes, Brian did nail it, it's an A308. The "08" series are mostly distinguishable over 06/07 series by the addition of the word "load" on the water level buttons (ie. Small Load). The 406 I don't think ever made into the gold escutcheon machines like the 407/408.

 

The machine also does have a blue tub. Unlike the 407 this machine gives you a cold rinse on each temp including HOT as opposed to a HOT/WARM.

 

I may have a set of these in the wings, but I have been so busy I haven't picked them up yet.
