Remove Transport System
To install the machine, follow the steps below:
1. Using a 10 mm wrench, loosen each of the transport bolts.
2. Loosen the four transport bolts and remove them along with
the plastic splined and rubber spacers.
3. Plug the holes with the 4 clear plastic plugs packed inside the
parts bag.
NOTE: If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your
local service center. To avoid suspension and structural damage,
your machine must be properly set up for relocation by a certified
technician.
