Re: hotpoint twin tub
iadom wrote:Yikes, I cannot believe anyone would pay for a gearbox job on an old twin tub. Gearbox £98.00 ex vat. 😯
My method was as follows, remove back panel, and also remove the four screws holding the lower back panel to the wrap round cabinet, release the earth lead top left from cabinet and the small cable clamp screwed a little lower down.
Remove the spin drive clutch assy and remove the spin drum then pull the spin bellows seal upwards, off the shaft/bearing assy but leave it attached to the outer spin drum.
Take the sump hose, heater wiring and thermostats etc from the outer wash tub.
Spread the cabinet and free the top surround, you can then lay the top surround backwards onto the floor. Note some later machines had a small plastic ‘rokut’ rivet through the top surround along the front edge, pull this out first.
Remove the tripod and seal, undo the plastic post nut and lift off the wash drum.
You then have access to the gearbox, three bolts plus the pump mounting bolt and the plastic timer drive cable off ( just pull off the securing clip and the cable end will come out) and the gearbox is then free.
Refitting is the reverse, make sure to line up the timer drive cable correctly and refit the clip and remember to swap the rubber seals from the old gearbox post.
Also a good idea to not to tighten up the post nut fully until you have aligned the outer tub. Put the tripod back on, refit the gyrator and move the drum until it is central before fully tightening the post nut.
You really need a new or very good condition tripod kit as well.
Some people used to remove the cabinet completely but I never did.
No doubt one or two other old codgers will have variations on this theme, its at least ten years since I did one. 😥
Jim.You really need a new or very good condition tripod kit as well.
Jim is correct,if you don’t have a new tripod and seal kit you are IMO wasting your time.

DaveRe: Qualtex on line ordering?
One thing that winds me up is that when you place an order some parts don’t turn up but the online system shows stock and to make it worse they are not showed on the invoice as out of stock 😈
