the hp of the washing machine is from 1/4 to 3/4 hp it depends from machine to machine.
an electric motor is used in a washing machineIt's a typical electric motor usually with a belt off of it to rotate the drum.
another web site said it was made first in 1946, a similar model in 1945, series E was made up till 1983. I have one that my Grandmother used. Im looking for a replacement part for the electric motor, possibly a capacitor. Anyway, Im still using the machine! John in Chickasaw AL

There may be a sock that jumped the tub rim and got stuck in the water pump, which is mounted directly to the motor.
It won't run properly and you may as well change the motor.
The motor is electric, the hot water is typically heated by gas or electric.
