That looks like a KUDI21 or 22, so it's +/- 1990.
The bottom panels on machines from this period are weird and aggravating to secure. There are tabs at the bottom of the panel with screws in them. Remove those, lift and pull out the panel from the bottom, and check that the top tabs aren't bent up. The challenge starts with hooking those top taps into place, then swinging the bottom section into place. For me, it usually takes many tries and then things will suddenly line up without even trying.
Your best bet for replacement wheels or racks is finding a a donor machine (suffix 20, 21, 22, 23, or Insinkerator's "Classic" models) for parts. They show up on craigslist now and then. You can get a whole machine for far less than someone on ebay would charge for just a rack. This post was last edited 02/25/2019 at 22:16 |
