Bendix 
Ricky, Thanks for the videos they were great. This is a combo right? The videos remind me so much of my Grandmothers Bendix. Hers was just a washer action was the same and much older from the mid 50s. Amazing how different todays front loaders are. You don't see all that water and action. I also like all the clothes on the line. Best Wishes Peter | ||

Hi Ricky Fantastic vids - thanks ! During the spin did I hear a `speed up' about half way through? I think from the noise the machine has an induction motor........ I really enjoyed watching these. NickUK | ||

Hi Thanks for the comments, i do love watching this machine work, and Nick this machine has an induction motor that runs at one speed and in one direction continuously, a gear box with a solenoid shifter changes the drum speed from wash tumble to approx 600rpm in one kick , hence the click sound ( i think the you tube sound and video are a little out of sink) ( i know thats not the right spelling !) so the shifter clicks in and out to run between tumble and wash throughout the cycle. Glad you liked the washing line shot , even though we don't have the best weather in the uk we all seem to want to use our washing line! Richard | ||
