Thanks! Good video. Hey, you DO NOT actually need the shop vac. Once you get the soaking wet clothes out, scoop out as much water as you can using a cottage cheese container or something similar. That will make the machine light enough to pivot out away from the wall and access the back panel. There's one 1/4 inch nut holding on a plate where the drain hose comes out. Remove that panel, and that will allow you to place the hose flat on the floor so you can simply drain the washer into the floor drain. (CAUTION! This only works if your laundry room DOES have a floor drain!)
If I had to choose who would save them, let's just say since they're American, it's understandable why those bozos wanted to do the job. HOWEVER, since the Canadians claimed they were in Canadian waters, the latter should be the ones who'd rescue them due to nationalism and territories. So the Americans were just being pushy assholes. : /
This was a very informative video. I do not agree with putting anti-seize on rubber components. It’s not designed for that and can potentially cause o-ring failure. anti-seize is designed to prevent metal surfaces from bonding together it is NOT a lubricant for moving surfaces. Now that being said I thought it was a very good video with LOTS of useful info.
My first time using a front load washer. A used one . I don't have an overflow of water in the drum, but after washing and taking my clothes out, I will spin the drum and I hear water inside the drum but it's not visible. Is this normal?
Yeah, pretty typical to have a little water still in there, for that reason, most folks will leave the door slightly open to allow it to air out. If I remember correctly, at start up, the machine briefly does a very short drain cycle to pump out any excess water before starting a new cycle.
Way bigger than 30qt, if I remember right it's like 80qt. It can hold 75-85lbs of ground meat easily. It's stainless and weighs 25lbs empty, it's a beast! **Edit, if you watch again, right as I start grinding, I say that the bowl has 40lbs of meat in it, that should give you a better idea of how ridiculously massive it is.
@@knucklhedbbq yeah was looking at 80 qt with a cart and it was $1400. Also I just got a #42 meat grinder. And is no joke! I borrowed a #32. From a friend and loved it. I have a 50 pound mixer but I’m thinking about going with a big bowl like you got
@@icemangresham I got REALLY lucky and got that bowl, without the cart, at a restaurant equipment auction for $60, THEN I saw how much they cost new and couldn't believe it! TBH, if you have a mixer, I don't know that you really need the bowl - I did all my mixing by hand and the bowl was great for that, so much better than a meat lug. But if you have a mixer, meat lugs might be the easier and cheaper way to go. Washing and storing that bowl is awful, even with a large commercial 3 sink. A very useful tool for many things, but I think $1400 might be spent elsewhere. 👊 🍻
I found that the pump motor can be dis assembled and cleaned. 4:30 Inside motor was gunked up. Bearing and shaft were not broken. Cleared and cleaned all this out. Re assemble. Great results. Works great now.
Aaarrggg.. you don't want to seal this pump up. If you do, it will not be able to cool itself and bearings (plastic one) will melt and wobble i.e. stop working!
Excellent video, thanks so much for the help. My setup had one hose clamp and one squeeze clamp - and of course, the squeeze clamp was on the front side of the rubber boot, and was a pain to get off. But other than that, this vid was perfect and extra helpful. :)
Hi, Is there any oder configuration not having the pressure switch directly over the pump assembly? I also seen some Neptune washers with recirculation pump! That’s pretty interesting to see different varieties of Neptune :)
In a way, yes - but there are other things that could cause that. If the pump isn't working, the washer will still be full of water, and therefore won't go into it's spin cycle... Run a cycle and watch it closely, wait for it to go into it's drain cycle and gently lift the drain hose out of the wall drain. Is there a significant amount of water being pumped out or is it just a trickle? Does the pump sound rough/noisy? You should be able to trouble shoot it a bit further to determine if the pump is working properly or not. Also, it's not terribly difficult to remove the drain pump, if you're unable to determine good/bad through trouble shooting, you might want to just pull the pump and check it out.
How long have you had this washer for? I just bought a Neptune MAH5500bww. for $80. couple days ago. It's in operating condition. Is this washer any good?
*My friend and I do a lot of home canning☞☞>**allmy.tips/Cabela_grinder?h8** We used this to grind all the veggies for making Salsa, made short work of it. It worked beautifully. No fluid back flush around the shaft, like I've had other grinders do. Excellent design, function and value.*
