OK you can remove thr tumbler with a Number 20 Torx driver. The FAV6800A/9800A Service Manual does not call out the torx driver size. Page 37 of the SM will take you thru the process. Let us know if you have any questions. Rich

String caught between the upper and ;ower half of the agitiator

Remove the agitator and clear the string. Agitators can be hard to remove, but they will come off. Usually have a nut under the top cap that holds them down then pushed down onto splines.

My Frigidaire front load dryer is ruining my clothes. I can only guess loose straps, strings... get caught on lint trap on door and with the continually spinning o the drum, they eventually break. I...

If you take front of dryer off, there is a half moon shaped piece of felt on top of door opening that most likely has worn and leaves a gap between drum and where that felt is. Replace that for right drum fit.

How do I remove the agitator for my machine ? It is loose and spins fine, but makes a clanging noise when agitating counterclockwise during the wash cycle. It seems like I just need to tighten it down...

Anyone with loud scraping/clanging- we had that problem and saw that the large wheel the belt goes around is only an inch above the metal bottom.When we moved the washer with a 2wheeler it pushed the bottom up into the metal wheel. The racket it made was horrible. It left metal shavings ,too. You'll need to pull the bottom of the washer back out.Pull fromt panal off with putty knife.You'll need to lean or lay washer to one side.Put a pillow or cushion inside between the tub and housing side you'll be leaning towards. What I did was drill two little holes-one near the back center and one near the front center. I took a long piece of heavy string,put one end in one hole and the other end in the other hole-outside to inside.Tie the ends around each end of a 1x2,18inch board .Get the board to the back without damaging stuff inbetween-pulling on your back string for help. Make sure the board is against the bottom, get to where you can now pull your string 'handle' w/both hands,yanking and popping the bottom back out.Our washer now works beautifully and quietly.

At the top of the agitator has a cap get a flat screw driver and pry up and turn. When it comes off there is a nut you have to take off.Then pull up on the agitator..

Hi!, have a ge washer, model wbsr3140. need to know how too take agitator out of washer to look for a pocket knife that was left in a pair of pants.

The agitator is just pressed on. But it is really tight. I put my belt under it and pull. Look out it will hit you in the face when it lets go.
