# How to Get the Cap Off a Frigidaire Washing Machine Model GLWS1349AS1
Making repairs to the tub or transmission of your Frigidaire GLWS1349AS1 sometimes requires the removal of the agitator from the washtub. There is a single bolt inside the center of the agitator that secures it to the spline shaft. Accessing the bolt involves getting the cap off that covers the bolt. Getting the cap off a Frigidaire washing machine does require some force due to the rubber seal around the outside perimeter of the cap.
