Reinstalling the Top Spinner on a Frigidaire Dishwasher

Frigidaire dishwasher models come with a bottom- and top-spinner part, which is also called the spray arm. The part is sometimes referred to as the spinner because it spins and dispenses water during a washing cycle. The spinner is installed manually before the dishwasher is used for the first time. Remove the top spinner part if damaged. If you're inserting a new spinner part or simply reinstalling the old one, know how to properly take out the top spinner reinstalling it.
