Re: remove stuff in tub

Never thought of the possibility the tub could be in plastic. I’m quite sure it is ss, but I will check. Have to get my torch back from my neighboor first.
Either way, my weekend is the “goin’ fishin'” kind.

Do you know of any machine with a rincing hatch in the tub?

HAve a nice weekend!

Re: remove stuff in tub

Ok – thank you for your time and concern.

I will try to find a way around the problem. Maybe turning the machine with the front down over a couple of chairs. Hopfully the loose parts will drop down enough for me to grab them with pliers.
Otherwise I leave it as it is and hope for the best – if not, a new machine makes the world spin around just a little bit more. Won’t give up until I find one with a hatch in the tub though.

Bye and thank UK

Re: remove stuff in tub

Thanks guys – yes from Sweden – whatever that makes me….a chef in the Muppet Show maybe.

The machine has an inscription “Time Saver 1300”. I suppose that is the official model description. Maybe 3 – 4 years old.

I have tried yo catch a bra wire with pair of tweezers, but it’s hard to get deep enough through the gap between the drum and the tub – even whilst bending them apart with a screwdriver. Don’t want to bend too hard.
There is also some other unidentifable metallic object down there that probably has damaged the drum here and there. I would like to make a good inspection of the whole tub, to see there are now other damages.
So – the only way in is to disassemble the whole machine? Split the tub?- is that easy – just a few screws or a dozen other parts to remove first?

Where to start?
