How do I remove the agitator and inner tub from a Speed Queen AWS44NW?
Oren,
Looked at a number of youtube vids which suggest that it is bolted on. Remove the fabric softener assembly. It should lift out. Underneath that is a cap which may be pulled up and removed. Underneath that it a bolt head. Remove the bolt. the agitator should lift out. The agitator may be a 2 piece agitator but, even so, it should lift out. Dave M. |

And none of the responses get him into the cavity between inner and outer tubs . FWIW , you don't need to pull the guts out of the inner tub . Figure out how the case comes off - usually a pair of clips under the control console hold it all together - and get it off . There will be a ring that snaps onto the outer tub that overlaps the top edge of the inner . Get that ring off and you'll have access into the space between tubs . -- Snag |

The one time I drove through Nevada (and back about a week later) it did appear to be a dry climate. Do you get rain every year, or is it global warming doing its thing? I remember six hours of asphalt, with a town about every 50 miles. Sand as far as the eye could see, and I loved the cattle guards with the round bars. Ought have took pictures of one.

I'll try and remember that about the cows. Oddly, once or twice I have seen cows in the road, near me. I'm a slow driver, so I had plenty of braking distance.

Hi Stormin, There are allergies to smoke and combustion so we used our numerous LED flashlights. Shined then into plastic water bottles for lanterns. I have a bunch of "C" batteries to burn up. I was thinking of this "C" lantern: http://www.eliteled.com/products/lanterns/jk-164c.html And it is Japanese, not Chinese. It is on sale. It is dimable. We made sure out hot water heater did not require electricity, so we had hot water. I filled pans with hot water and set them around the house for heat. Sorted of worked -- kept the house at a nice, toasty 65F. If other things ever stop going wrong around the house, I really want to install a Kohler whole house natural gas backup generator. (Genracks fail too often.) Natural gas never goes down. -T |
