I'm not exactly sure the exact dimensions of the tube but it was bigger than the spray tube. Look at the pic of the bottom rack in the POD, that hump in the middle is where the rotating tunnel sits. It was a weird design. |

I know someone that had this same exact dishwasher years ago. I thought but could be wrong that it had a revolving arm at the bottom. I don't understand why their is a hump in the middle to load the plates. I also thought their was a revolving arm under the upper rack. Again I could be wrong. I would love to see how the real design of this machine works to wash dishes. I had also thought this was origionally a D&M design - but that I guess came later. I realy remember the lady who used it putting soap in both cups built into the bottom rack. I also remember the dial lit up when running and it was quiet for a 1960's dishwasher. I had wished it had a window. Peter |

The way I've heard it explained is that there is a spinning drum in the bottom of the tub that simply splashes water upward (imagine the paddle-wheel on a river boat running at high speed) It ran in one direction, then reversed to wash the other half of the tub. Strange design that supposedly didn't work well.
