DRIVE SYSTEM
The drive system consists of a reversible, variable
speed, 16 pole DC motor coupled with an electronic
speed control unit and timer. The motor drives the tub
pulley with a 6 rib Poly-V belt. The motor rotates the tub
at 52 RPM in a 16 second clockwise/counterclockwise
motion with a 4 second pause at the end of each
tumbling wash action.
The drive motor rotates the tub counterclockwise up to
850 RPM for further water extraction after certain drain
cycles. If an unbalanced wash load prevents the
washer from reaching full spin speed, the electronic
speed control adjusts the spin speed back to agitate
speed to allow the wash load to self adjust. Then the
motor will again attempt to drive the spin basket up to
850 RPM This procedure continues to repeat as neces-
sary.
ELECTRONIC SPEED CONTROL
The electronic speed control monitors current draw and
a built-in tachogenerator in the drive motor, to control
RPM of the tub during wash and spin cycles.
DRAIN SYSTEM
The drain system consists of an air cooled, AC motor
pump assembly, a bellows type sump hose, air bell,
and a ribbed drain hose.
The drain pump and motor assembly is located in the
right front corner and is mounted on the base. When the
washer rinse cycle is completed, the timer energizes
the pump motor to remove water from the tub before the
spin cycle starts. The pump motor remains in operation
throughout the spin cycle. The pump out rate is approxi-
mately 8 GPM under full load operation, which empties
the tub within 60 seconds.
SUSPENSION AND STABILIZER SYSTEM
The entire tub assembly is suspended by two springs.
The stabilizer system consists of two air shocks that are
located between the outer tub and base, one per side.
They provide a dampening action to stabilize tub as-
sembly during spin cycles.
