01 SETTING UP
INSTALLING YOUR WASHER
STEP 1
Selecting a location
Before you install the washer, make sure the location:
• Has a hard, level surface without carpeting or fl ooring that may obstruct ventilation.
• Is away from direct sunlight.
• Has adequate ventilation.
• Will not be freezing (below 32 ˚F or 0 ˚C).
• Is away from heat sources such as oil or gas.
• Has enough space so that the washer doesn’t stand on its power cord.
STEP 2
Removing the shipping bolts
Before using your washer, you must remove the four
shipping bolts from the back of the unit.
1. Loosen all the bolts with the supplied wrench.
2. Slide the bolt and spacer up and remove the bolt with
the spacer through the hole in the rear wall of your
washer. Repeat for each bolt.
3. Fill the holes with the supplied bolt hole covers.
4. Keep the shipping bolts and spacers for future use.
STEP 3
Installing your washer
1.
Place the drain hose in the drain facility.
Be sure an airtight connection is NOT
made between the drain hose and the
standpipe.
The standpipe must be at least 18in.(46
cm) high.
Caution must always be exercised to
avoid collapsing or damaging the drain
hose. For best results, the drain hose
should not be restricted in any way – by
elbows, couplings, or excessive lengths.
For situations where the drain hose
cannot be conveniently elevated to at
least 18in.(46 cm), the drain hose must
be supported.
2. Before connect the inlet hoses to water faucets, check to
ensure a washer is inside coupling.
