Toshiba Washing Machine Filter TSB-42T44074

Washing machines have a filter to protect the pump from a build-up of lint, and obstructions such as coins. It should be at the front of the washing machine at the bottom left or right, and should be obvious (a square or round flap) – but some are hidden.

A good washing machine filter should have a retractable pipe at the side so that you can drain the water into a bowl.

If your washing machine is stuck full of water you need to drain it away before removing the filter.
