    I know about NASCAR – lots of cars going round in circles….. I was more wondering what channel he was on?

    Re: Trying to find new machine

    The Bosch “Exxel” series is generally priced around the £300 mark and includes a 2 year warranty. Not a bad deal IMHO.

    Check WFL2067 and WFO2467 on Google and you might be pleasantly surprised.

    Honest answer? No idea Ken, I’m sorry.

    A rough guide is that machines with “electro-mechanical” timers (big drag and lots of clicking when you turn them manually) need the dryer knob setting and “half-load” selecting to operate. The digital machines (where the programme knob clicks as you pass each selection point) generally need only the dryer timer setting to operate.

    A picture of the control panel to admin@ukwhitegoods.com will help us if this doesn’t work – it will be some variation of a Euro spec machine.

    Ilve I just don’t recognise, Baumatic looks good but can be a bit cheap and cheerful. Don’ll be able to tell you more on Monday.

    5 x 12.5mm. 36mm is standard length, Maddocks do 12AG03 and 12BS03 at sensible prices – my query was the super-extra-long ones, which I have no idea of the length of. And to think I keep telling the Mrs size doesn’t matter.

    Anyway, looks like Dave’s got an answer, thanks.

    It’s how you do it – I splat ’em into place with a strip of bluetack, then solder the ends.

    You do need eyes like a hawk though. Lot of use under water……

    Re: Wierd WMA

    Kev put a post up about stretch belts ages ago – different stretch rates from different manufacturers giving different tension IIRC. That might account for it.

    Re: Cheapest Genuine HPT carbons?

    Why is this such a big issue? The machines are now dying out and the brushes are no longer the neat little earner we have had for so many years. My usage is down to about 10 pairs a week now, so I’ve kind of stopped worrying about them. 161460s only btw.

    Much more relevant is the price of FHP brushes, which fit so many holders nowadays. Has anyone managed to find a source of loose ones to fit the extra long holders on the high spin AEGs and Zanussis yet?

    Cheers,
    Chris.

    1524902-00/2 is the feed tube running along the bottom of the basket.
    1524744-02/4 is the upper rotor itself.

    Contact spares@ukwhitegoods.com to organise ordering.

    The actual fault may be as simple as the rotor tips being blocked, preventing rotation.

    Other possibilities include the machine underfilling, or the circulation pump running slowly; both known problems on this range. However they are rather complex problems to resolve, so if the new rotor does not solve your problem, it’s engineer time.
