The unknown and the bad...
Operating condition is unknown. I just haven't had time to check it out yet but I will. The bad. There are rust spots on various locations on the back. Not terminal but still needing attention depending on condition of the running gear. The Pile still coughs them up... RCD

I hope that poor Maytag A806 in the backround isn't headed to the shredder... | ||

Another shot. I forgot to take a money shot picture but the inside tub is VERY mineral stained. We have some nasty iron ridden water in some places around here and this one had the misfortune to live there. The cabinet is wonderful, tho, and I'm sure I will find something to do with it. She's a LA806 series 02.

Nice Norge and Maytag
That's a very well specced Norge there Andrew....and nice Maytag too!
Eddy sent me an 806 control panel to put on my Centre Dial here in Australia, haven't got to it yet. Would LOVE to have one of those Dependable Care electronic control panels, but it wouldn't work with our voltage unfortunately. Cheers Leon | ||

The control panel on that Magic Chef washer reminds me of the control panels on Control Data's Cyber series mainframe computers. I think this style was popular on things in the late 70's very early 80's. About the same time Personal Computers were becoming very popular. | ||

questions That Magic Chef/NORGE looks great! A few questions: The PRETREAT/INSTANT WATER BUTTON-----likely just a switch to throw power to both water solenoids for a warm flow, even when the machine isn't running, to help pretreat stains, etc? Good idea, if that's what it does.
And--no speed switch anywhere. Is this a one speed machine, or does the Cycle Selector slew of buttons do speed and temp all in one, pre-programmed? Could we get an inner lid photo, to see if it's all explained?
Norge Burpolators are fun loud effective machines. But that AGI/SOAK cycle going right into a 15 minute Norge wash? I'd use it once to watch and see, but I'd fear way too much action and shredded clothes, those are powerful machines.
Yeah, yeah, the Maytag will last longer, but will NEVER be as much fun.

That burpolator is just like mine except yours is one model step up. Mine doesn't have the push button fabric controls. I hope it's in good working order. Those machines are real work horses. I love mine. | ||
