The leg of a pair of jeans is caught under the agitator and the whole thing is just plain stuck.

a brand would really help me answer your question,most machine have a bolt down the centre of the agitator undo that to remove it,if the round disc type which is called a pulsator the is a plastic cap in the centre remove with a screw driver bolt is under that you may need a couple of screw drivers under it to pop it up

The top of the washer pulls up. IT may be hard to do. This will expose the whole drum so that you can see around it. If you need to remove the agitator, there is a cap on the top of the center, take it off and you should see a nut and some lock washers, Remove the nut and lift the agitator out.

What is the model number of your unit?
You will need to replace the clutch assembly.

It is not grease. Under the agitator there will be a sticky buildup of detergent and dirt that has stuck to it. Overtime this buildup can become quite a lot. When your garment became caught up under the agitator, it was becoming stained with this buildup.

WEll, hard to know with no brand specified, but usually the agitator can be removed by unscrewing a retainer bolt, typically under some cap at the top of the agitator itself.

there is a bolt under the fabric softner dispenser (if you have one) if not, its a plastic cap on the top of your agitator which pops off by hand or a butter knife.. then there is a bolt under there that holds the unit down..grap the bottom of your agitator and loosen the bolt and remove it...then lift up carefully on the whole thing..careful not to loose the seal and bolt to put the agitator back in place....good luck..

unfortunatly unless you take them to someone to do alterations I don't think there is really anything you can do, but be happy you lost that much weight! go buy yourself a fantastic pair of jeans you'll love just the same in your new size.

yes, remove the softener dispenser at the top of the agitator and there is a bolt there that is holding the agitator assembly. if you remove that bolt, the whole piece can be pull out and you can remove the clothe that was stuck in there.

tnx 4 using fixya,

Check on the top of the agitator for a cap to uncover a screw or bolt to remove the agitator, if not you may need to unsrew part of the top of the agitator.
Either way if you can remove what is attaching the agitator, pull it up and out, then the pants should come out.

Harkins...you model looks like a one piece agitator according to the model number. Pop the cap off the agitator, you will see a bolt under there. Using a socket wrench remove the bolt and the agitator will lift up. If you have a fab dispensor on top, just pop it off. Catriver...post back.
