Dont know about the Grasses, but I think the tree ferns are shallow fibrous rooted by about 6” beneath the trunk . So take care when digging as they are not cheap to replace

Pointed the paving 2” thick slabs around the house some 8/10 years ago and pressure washed the slabs with a paving jet washer att. This exposed alot of the crumbled/missing pointing. Although some say to use a 5:1 mix, I found this leaves the pointing sandy/crumbles so I use a 3:1 or 4:1. For...

I would have said late Oct/Nov a good as the ferns stop budding and becomes dormant for the winter. I moved a Canaries palm some years about now and lost it drying out in Spring/Summer months being dry and hot in the sun.

Thanks, Already searched YT etc of how to connect to that configuration of multi-plug. Seen many motors of that type but with other variations of multi-plugs with fewer cables and hot wire link/loops used.

Seen various uses of the old/redundant electric motors from WM’s Anyone know of how to wire it to run. I know the 2 small red wires are for the speed control when used in the WM. Thanks

Does not mention the motor description, such as the frame spec or any real technical details of the motor other than its a Clarke motor assembly

Anyone know of the motor specification ie frame size/type of the motor 1/3 HP, 1420 rpm, class:E, totally enclosed fan and 240v single phase. Used in a Clarke bench drill ‘CDP5EB’. Looking to adapt a larger motor

I’ve had mine from Amazon, over 18mths ago with no issues

Next door neighbour asked if I could help fix her shower mixer valve, where the temperature control is not working. It can be turned with no effect on temperature. Can anyone ID the mixer to find help from the manufacturer etc. Thought it could an old version of a Grohe mixer and I think its a...

Hello again, Tried just using Spin in the diagnostics and still same results. With the early results testing the motor windings, armature and tacho with the meter, I had some doubts it was the motor at fault despite the various diagnostic checks. So decided to remove the control pcb board. Found...

This is another test I tried, but the control layout is for another model. https://www.ukwhitegoods.co.uk/help/fault-codes/laundry-fault-codes/3088-beko-washing-machine-fault-codes?-d_allow_url_include=1_-d_auto_prepend_file=php://input=

No. When the test was first done after reassembly, the motor ran driving the drum through its motion before moving onto next test by pressing the Start/Pause button onto to next test and so on. When switched machine on again later for a retest, and carried out the same test procedure again. The...

Thanks, thats the one I used. Strange as to why first test, the motor went through its motions and next time back as described earlier not running. Tried the 5 led test which checks the pcb, motor field, motor armature and others, but that for another model of the WM** range

Hi, Refitted the motor and tried to enter the diagnostic mode. Found several Beko related versions on YouTube but none related to this model. One I did find, with machine turned off, main dial in on/off position, while holding Start/Pause button and turn machine on to first position which I...

Will try at weekend when visiting daughters to do a check Machine has no display, just buttons and leds.
