We actually had this same problem at the laundromat that I volunteer work at. We have older Dexter washers, and they don't have emergency stop buttons. What I did is that I had to shut the breaker off, open the person's machine, take their clothes out (they were really hot too), and pry out 3 screws. It could have seriously did a lot of damage to the machine if I wasn't there. Would've had a broken belt, motor may have caught fire, etc. Luckiest moment we've had at the laundromat. Now, every time I'm there, I check the drums on ALL the washers and dryers, and if I even see a loose screw or nail bouncing around, I throw it away. This video is really helpful. 👍
