Stainless Steel
Spinner Assembly

The stainless steel spinner is composed of a

crimped stainless steel basket and a
polypropylene spinner top. There is a lower
insulating ring attached to the bottom of the
spinner and an upper insulating ring that fits
over the inner spinner bottom. These

insulating rings provide stability to the lower

spinner area. When replacing a spinner it is

recommended that the insulating rings be
replaced with the spinner assembly.

1. Disconnect the power to the unit.

2. Raise the top assembly and lean it back.

3. Remove the tub top.

4. Remove the agitator

5. Remove the mounting screws.

6. Remove the upper insulating ring.

lower insulating ring to the bottom of the

one or more break during removal, the

part is still functional. (See Figures 5-13
