30mm or 35mm?

[Martin]

Hotpoint WMA11P Date code 03 are the shaft & bearings 30mm or 35mm?

…….. that is the question?

…or whether ’tis nobler in the mind to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune,

Or to take arms against a sea of troubles, and order the wrong bits,

……and by opposing end them? To die, to sleep, no more and by a sleep to say we end the heart-ache and the thousand natural shocks by just chucking the whole machine in the skip and forgetting it…….?

with that model number normally 35 but you never know

if it has plastic pulley it normally 30 but not in all cases

such is the rubbish they now call Hotpoint

Verily I say unto you ..thanks!

But soft, what light doth yonder shine?…’tis a glinting metal pulley I see!

So I’ll take a chance on it being 35mm bearing and hope I don’t get shafted.:rolls:

Thanks again…….:tup:

Unless it has already had 35mm bearings fitted in place of 30mm ones at some point then the concrete weight is the best guide on that machine, thicker top weight = 30mm bearings.

Struuuth??? That’s set the cat amongst the pigeons sure enough….! 😕

All I know is it’s a bl**dy great lump of concrete bolted on top, about 5 or so inches thick?

If its Date Code 03 it should be 35mm, it was later when they meddled with changing lower spin speed machines with 30mm bearings.JJ
