    Good luck then 😆

    There’s a thread somewhere about this thing and seperating the can from the motor.

    Is it U/G still then and who passed the job to you ?

    If it’s who I think it is and the rate is still the same I know what I’d tell them to do with it and it cannot be read before the 9pm watershead 🙂

    Ah, so the work did move from ISDAL then 🙂

    A better rate I hope 😉

    And they have a Haier fridge as well :rotl: A wondeful collection of appliances then. If it’s a larder a VT9 with ice box VC1, assuming it has “normal” fittings.

    Funny how all the dreadful makes end up in the same places isn’t it 😉
    I have done one of these it was a cash job and unbelievably he wanted it done.
    The trick is seperating the can from the shaft my old man knows a trick from yesteryear basically put the can under load and pour boiling water in and hey presto it pops out i will ask him tommorow for the finer details
    by the way Tony are JTM still paying aborted call rate ?

    That sounds like the old Hotpoint 1420 twin tub, I had a special tool made, a heavy chisel welded to a 2 foot iron rod, pour in the boiling water, wedge any spanner of the correct size under the lips of the spin can and place the rod down onto the motor shaft, lift the machine up with the spanner and clout the special rod with lump hammer.
