I have a new Hotpoint washer (top load) model HTAP1200DWW i have a string stuck under the agitator. I removed the top cap on agitator but there's another plastic cup a little lower down the shaft. My question is? how do i romove the agitator? is there a bolt or does it just pop off? Do i have to remove the plastic and how do i remove that plastic piece down the shaft? Thank you

remove the fabric despenser from the top of the agatator, under the despenser is a 1/2 inch bolt, a ratche with a 6 inch extention works well, remove the bolt and the agatator will lift up off the transmission shaft

I DONT KNOW HOW TO REMOVE MY AGITATOR PARTS TO PUT IN THE NYLON COUPLING I GOT THE TOP PART OFF BUT THATS THE ONLY PART COMES OFF 

SOURCE: Remove the agitator

The agitator is actually pressed on without mechanical fasteners . Grab the bottom of the agitator firmly on each side. Pull up with a quick, hard **** (careful not to hit your face). If this does not work, wrap a belt under the agitator. Grab the belt firmly and pull up with a quick, hard ****.

#15... There's a bolt in there. Lift the fabric softener to access it.

if anyone is still doing this.. i had a hotpoint model type vbxr1060. It had just a cap on agitator no extra bolts and used two hammers to get underneath the base creating leverage..

Work both hammers in (using the nail puller side) as far as possible towards the center of the agitator on opposing sides and use them to pull up and slightly outwards towards the sides of the basin. When you get it off you will see why this works as the agitator's base has mini clips that grasp the base of the air bell housing. hope this tip helps someone.
