There was a second design switch in 53 so believe the electric mag nu matic washer was made available late 53 and co-ordinator was made available in 54 because it required a different motor with the cast in mounting pieces. Before that it was turn the knob backward against a spring to admit vacuum to charge the washer and then turn the knob the regular direction to kill vacuum and start the wipers. It was turned off manually when desired. Believe the variable sweep was 55-6 only.
