Another great estate sale find this weekend - I haven't had time to clean or test it, but I will do that this week when the mess of holiday decorating is over. This was in a basement, where it had apparently been sitting for quite a few years. It needs a bath desperately, but it looks to be in cherry condition... Perhaps I'll install this in my new kitchen when it's done? |

I had the built-in version of this in my old house. I hope it never goes wrong for the new owners, because it was SO built-in that they would have to demo the counter to get it out, LOL. As far as cycles go, every day is party day! |

How did a dishwasher, in fact, "soak"? I'll buy it for a washing machine, in fact I have one that does that. Is "soak" a pre-rinse? |

pturo--- The Soak & Scrub cycle was great. My first KA dishwasher (purchased about 1983 or so) had it. Before the regular cycle begins, the water heats and it starts to wash. Then it pauses while the water heats up again. Then it scrubs again. Can't remember how many times this occurs before the regular cycle begins. It did a great job on pots/pans, that's for sure!

On the KDI-17a, soak was during the normal Prewash phase which was two increments of fill, three of washing, then drain. Soak washed for one timer increment, then for the remaining two increments a delay relay took over which pulsed the timer motor and extended them to 13 minutes. There was a brief period of recirculation when drain started, being as the motor didn't reverse, until the water was out. Rest of the cycle was identical to Normal.

Andrew, Thanks for updating us about Party Cycle. I really enjoyed his posts, and knowledge. I did notice that he was missing from this board for a while, but did not know him. When Greg posted his new machine, I wondered. Again, thanks for letting us know. Martin |

Hello: I haven't posted here in a long, long, LONG time, but I was sorry to read about partycycle. This thread brings up something I have been meaning to ask: How restorable are 1950s KA DWs? I've been thinking of a KD-11, and wondered what I was getting into with parts availability. Particularly racks, door seals, etc. Or are these machines for advanced collectors- the kind of people who have super-rare machines and parts "magically" appear wherever they go? That ain't me, that's for sure. Anyway, good to be back. |
