 This BobLoad® was inspired by TurquoiseDude, Cadman, Swestoyz, Toploader55, PhilR, Coldspot, among others. Using this machine since they arrived a couple weeks ago I've begun to learn just how to BobLoad it up. This was the biggest load yet for the Youngstown Model PP, and it all came clean, even though I was told the pots wouldn't make it they did. Jet Tower washing does work.
Finally my dishes will be Jet Tower Clean- and disinfected ( but I'm told thats not so good for you today, a little dirt goes along way to boosting immune systems-- oh so much for the sterile '50's )

Yes this does have the boost heater and a switch for on off. I converted it to a portable so I just roll it out and plug it in 20 minutes before wash. And it is supposed to get to 185 degrees, all the boys can tell you on the wash you can't really touch the lid the machine is so hot. And yes to my amazement the pan that was angled down did get clean, the lower jets were able to spray into it at many levels, I think that is the secret. The way the holes are in the tower they are cut at all levels around the tower. What surprises me with this machine is the back of dirty spoons get clean everytime and they are totally faced away from the needle spray - I face them on purpose!! I can't figure out how that happens, gotta keep washing to learn how.

Yes, That Cover gets really hot. You can't rest your elbows or arms on the top while it's running to stare through the window. Would the theory of the back of the spoons getting clean would be spray deflection of items behind the spoons in the silverware basket or the water dripping off the lid on to the silverware ? It is truly a amazing machine to see in operation and it is very quiet too. I noticed you took another screw out of the top of the jet tower. And then by the final rinse the last screw is removed. Would that be making the tower spin a little more slowly since the pressure has been reduced to the column jets as I remember the discussion we had that the tower seemed to be rotating faster the more you used the machine. There were 2 screws in the top jets when I was there. This post was last edited 04/07/2015 at 09:38 | ||

Eddie not quite sure about that answer, I found she is throwing bits of cork gasket up into the Jet Tower, that jambs things up in odd ways , when I get it clear the tower spins fine. Have to work through this as the former owner used cheap cork in her. ........... running and ducking............................ | ||

 Woweee, Jon - I had fun playing with the Youngstown when I was there, but you've gone above and beyond. I've just gotta get my Youngstown back in service again...
When you think about it, though, the machine should clean pretty effectively - it has to have been the first multi-level wash system in a dishwasher.
So, down to 3 screws in the jet-tower, I see... Very interesting! | ||
