Has anyone else had problems with amc121 tearing clothes.the customer has had this fault for a while,finding small holes in clothes.i have checked the inner drum for the usuall sharp edges.
Re: Hoover six tearing clothes!
just a thought …
does it happen every time or could it be that it only happens when washing includes a zipped item. ie the zip “grabs” the cloth and tears out chunks.Re: Hoover six tearing clothes!
Rear bearing starting to go – drum tips backwards and down – gap opens at tub front and all sorts of stuff will get dragged in and shredded.

Check that the door seal is ok. There should be a triangular piece of seal at the 12 oclock position. I’ve noticed that with heavy use and large loads this part of the seal wears away which allows clothes to fall forward and catch on the drum. Easy to compare the wear if you have a new seal to hand.
Make sure there is no bra wire under the drum which is occasionally pinging up.
Get the customer to check there isn’t a thorn bush near her washing line. I had this years ago, the customer was convinced it was the washing machine that was plucking her clothes.
