SECTION G - TEARDOWN

This section will describe how to remove components

from a top load washer.  Unless stated, the procedure

will be the same on all top load washers.  Unless stated,

reverse the procedure to reinstall the component.

 

Always remove electrical power from

the washer when working in an area where electrical

power is present.

Removing the knobs:

Timer knob: (some models)

1. The timer knob is threaded to the shaft.  To remove

the timer knob push the knob in, to the off position,

and turn the knob counter clockwise.

Timer knob: (some models)

1. The timer knob is held on the shaft by a locking rod

that extends to the rear of the timer.  To remove the

knob, disconnect power, remove the rear panel of

the console and using a small screwdriver  pull the

locking rod backward to release the knob.

Timer skirt: (some models)

1. Remove the timer knob and the washer around

the timer shaft between the knob and the skirt.

2. Pull the skirt straight off.
