User-Maintenance Instructions
Cold Weather Care
If the washer is delivered on a cold day (below
freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area
during the cold months, do not attempt to operate it
until the washer has had a chance to warm up.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the
control panel.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent,
bleach or other washing products are spilled on the
cabinet, wipe immediately.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers on any
part of the washer.
The washtub will need no particular care though it
may need rinsing or wiping after an unusual load has
been washed.
Leave the lid open to allow the inside of the washer to
dry out after use. This helps prevent musty odors from
developing.
Replacing Hoses
Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after
extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or
material wear from the temperature and constant high
pressure they are subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a yearly basis for any
visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the
signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced
immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five
years.
Vacations and Extended Non-Use
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage
due to flooding, turn off the water supply to the
washer whenever there will be an extended period
of non-use.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or
damage annually. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal,
check the filter screens. Clean or replace them if
necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. F270300 from the nearest
authorized parts distributor.
Reinstallation of Shipping Materials
Shipping Brace
The shipping brace in the lid opening should be saved
and reinstalled whenever the washer is moved. To
reinstall the brace, open the washer lid and place the
brace over the washer agitator, placing the back of the
brace into the washtub first.
Shipping Plug
The plastic shipping plug should be saved and
reinstalled any time the washer is moved. The plug fits
into two openings: The base opening and the shipping
plug opening on the bottom of the mobile pivot dome.
The plug MUST be inserted into both openings to
prevent damage to the washer. Refer to Figure 29.
Figure 29
Motor Overload Protector
This internal overload protector will stop the motor
automatically in the event of an overload. The
overload protector will reset itself in two or three
minutes and the motor will restart automatically. If the
overload protector stops the motor again, remove the
washer from use and call the service person to correct
the problem.
