You know after the drain and distribution ,was that the first rinse?

[matchbox3236h]

I cant honestly remember. Was possibly the end of or start of first rinse. Cant make out where the white indicator line has got round to.

@matchbox3236h Way above it's time when this one came out I bet!! :-D

My mum had this machine before it packed up and she got a Bendix Autowasher Electronic 1000

its amazing just how many were out there. uber rare now - not surprising as the oldest of these machines would date from mid 1970 and would be approaching 40 years old. memories!
