Oh well, I'll throw this one in here It belongs in the vintage forum since agitator man is standing next to his 1951 Westy frontloader. The kids got quite a kick out of this set up. Merry Christmas

Brian, there may be some timer issues if you don't hear the drain solenoid activating or it try to spin. When I used Robert's same machine at the 2001 convention, it decided it wouldn't spin any more and it had done great the night before from what I was told. I think Robert either worked on the timer or sent it out to be reworked.

Brian, great find and these are relatively simple machines so you should have no problem getting it running again. Oh and fabulous snow washers! Yes they are vintage. Everyone gets to show off their beautiful snow but me :,( no fair! Bob the timer wasn't the problem, a wire had simply come off of the spin solenoid during the convention. Had I known at that time it would have been that easy, I would have fixed during the convention. | ||

That Bendix just reeks unique and individual style, and any and all efforts to bring it to life again would just make you the owner of a rare icon. | ||

Brian Looks like by the time I get my Bendix in a place I can use it, you might be able to help me from all the work you'll have done on yours! Am looking forward to the pics of it in action. | ||
