Removing the agitator from a GE washer is a relatively simple task that can be completed in a few minutes. The agitator is the central post in the washer that helps to move the clothes around during the wash cycle. It can be removed for cleaning or to make it easier to wash large items.
To remove the agitator from a GE washer, you will need a pair of pliers and a screwdriver. First, unplug the washer from the power outlet and turn off the water supply. Then, remove the four bolts that hold the agitator in place. Once the bolts are removed, you can pull the agitator straight up and out of the washer.
