If you have a whirlpool top loader washing machine, it is important to clean the filter regularly. This will help to keep your machine running smoothly and prevent any problems. To clean the filter, first remove the dirty clothes from the machine. Next, unscrew the top of the washing machine and place them on a flat surface. Pour some water into the washbasin and turn on the water to full strength. Place the dirty clothes in front of the washer and wait for it to start cleaning. After a few minutes, remove the clothes from behind the washer and place them on another flat surface. Pour some more water into the washbasin and turn off the water again. Place one of your hands over each end of one of these cloths and use your other hand to push down on it until it starts moving around in circles. When it has completed its cleaning cycle, take it off of its stand and place it in a dryer with low heat so that it can dry completely.
