So here is the marriage made in Heaven. Most have seen the many post by Bud (Atlanta) and the awesome work he is doing. He made me a complete 1962 Frigidaire agitator to fit in my 1963 Frigidaire Multimatic. I received the agitator but the transmission is still in Atlanta till I can get over and pick it up. I saw a YouTube video where another member swapped out a Jetcone for a 63 agitator set up. Now my agitator has been sitting in a box and covered up and I have been dying to use it. So after watching the video I got the wild hair to swap out my 1968 Jetcone with my new 1962 setup and play for the day, or two or three...you get the idea. What follows is my attempt to show off the beautiful work that Bud is doing and show an abbreviated full wash cycle using the 1962 agitator. I know this might appear as sacrilege to some, but I Love All Things about Washing Machines and I love to have some fun along the way. Click on the link below and enjoy.

Was to reduce tangling, the earlier agitator washes many times better, but in doing that it tangles 10 times worse, never bothered me, but women had a terrible time with it. |

Hello to Frigidaire washer enthusiast. It was suggested that I post a short video of my Rollermatic with the Jetcone agitator in place and in action. This is a good comparison of the Jetcone and the 1962 agitator. My personal opinion is that there is no comparison. I would like to hear you comments, suggestions and comparisons. The link appears below. Thanks Losangesle
