Good evening, Marley here.
I want to remove the door to replace a plastick piece on the bottom of the tank just at the edge where the door meets the seal. The plastic channel that holds the gasket broke, and I can't seem to get the darn thing on without taking the door off. Not as easy as it would seem. If anyone has an idea on how to get the door off without dismanteling the whole thing, that would be great. The washer is a KitchenAid Superba. Was the top of the line 25 years ago! Thanks for the help. Marley.

Hello: Marley

May be the place to obtain the procedure for that model is at the local appliance part store where the parts can be purchased. Dealers are listed in the phone book.

Another suggestion is check the manf web site for problem solving methods, disassembly, reassembly methods, repair procedures, which may be available online.

Search the manufacturers web site for a downloadable version of the service manual. The file will be a pdf file opened with Adobe, which also needs to be downloaded first but worth having once obtained.

Check back on your question several more times. Other members posting replies in this forum topic may offer you additional advice, ideas, suggestions, test and or repair methods.

Hello sharp.
Thanks for the tip. I should have started there. I will let you know if I can find the site. Hobart is out of business or bought by someone.
Thanks, Marley.
