Servicing the Splutch Assembly
Refer to Figure 28 for these procedures.
NOTE: The splutch must be reassembled in the order described below. Failure to do so may result in
a malfunction where the agitator spins at a high rate of speed and the basket remains stationary.
1. Spread the snap-ring with a pair of snap-ring pliers and
slide it over the splined shaft of the gearcase. Press the
ring tightly against the bearing. Be careful not to shave off
any of the splines.
2. Slide the spring over the splined shaft.
3. Insert the cam ring inside the splutch housing so the tab
on the ring is inside the wide cutout of the housing.
4. Position the slider over the cam ring.
5. Slide the splutch assembly over the splined shaft so that
the gears mesh and the tab on the cam ring loops over the
pivot pin of the brake assembly.
6. Press the four tabs of the splutch housing into the
mounting holes in the motor mounting plate so they
snap into place.

Servicing the Gearcase
Refer to Figure 29 for these procedures.
1. Follow the procedure to remove the motor plate from
the washer on page 54.
2. Strike the top of the agitator shaft two or three times
with a rubber mallet to dislodge the gearcase from the
bearing race in the tub support.
3. a) On early production models the brake assembly
and the gearcase will have to be removed together
by carefully sliding both assemblies from the tub
support at the same time.
b) On later production models the brake assembly
should be removed separately. See procedure on
page 55. Then carefully slide the gearcase from
the tub support.
4. When replacing the gearcase a small bead of Loctite
should be applied approximatly 3¾" from the top of the
spin tube.
