Zanussi Dishwasher Door - Lost Fingers

The message from "Dan" contains these words:

I very much doubt there is one. I'd expect it to just have springs that hook onto each end at fixed points.

What you could do to slow it down a bit is take the door apart and install some ballast, though of course as it approaches vertical it'll only give it more momentum.

That's a shame, as my previous dishwasher (an indesit if memory serves) had a couple of screws in the door that could be turned to reduce or increase the tension in the springs.

Thanks Dan

Or wedge in a small Hungarian delivery boy :-)

Nah...you are OK.It's been on just the other week or two .Maybe still is on .

Look for a couple of allen-head bolts in the top rail of the dishwasher enclosure. Turn them anti-clockwise to slacken off the door spring.

I bet you it is.

I once had an integrated DW and the balance on the door used to pull it down open with a thump if you didn't lock it on the catch.

bUT As I only made enough dirty dishes to to fill it up once a week keeping the door closed meant that dishes went mouldy each week.

I made sure not to fit an integrated DW into the next house.
