Thumbnail Image of Download Early model Coronado-Beam Automatic Washer Service Manual
Here is an interesting service manual for the first Beam washer the Coronado. What is most unique about this very first Beam designed washer is it has two full size motors, one for wash and the other for spin! Full information on the cycle of operation, Diagnoises of Complaints and Servicing Procedures.

This Automatic Washer has been designed and developed to eliminate the old fashioned wash day for the modern housewife.

The cycle and washing principles incorporated insure maximum results with a minimum effort. All this plus economical operation provides an automatic that is virtually free from mechanical failure.

Many years of factory and field tests have proven the simple and practical design of this Automatic requires little if any adjustments. However, should adjustments be necessary, most of them can be handled through the conveniently located access panel.

Since this washer is completely automatic we feel this complete and simple Manual of Instructions will assist the service man in doing a speedier and more intelligent job.

The contents and illustrations listed in the following pages are the combined efforts of factory trained, experienced field personnel and our engineering staff.

Therefore, by referring to this Manual frequently all repairs and adjustments will be completed easier on this Automatic Washing Machine.
