Installation
The floor must be clean and dry, free from floor
polish and other greasy substances, so that the
machine does not slide about. Do not use any
grease as lubrification.
Installation on deep pile carpets and floor
coverings with foam backings is not recommended,
as the stability of the machine is no longer guaran-
teed. If the installation must be done on a carpeted
floor, the openings located at the lower part of the
back of the appliance must remain free. These
openings ensure a good ventilation of your appli-
ance. In case of small format tiles, place a stan-
dard rubber mat under the machine.
With sprung floors, in particular wooden plank
floors with yielding floor boards, screw down a
waterproof wooden base at least 15 mm thick,
across at least 2 floor boards. Wherever possible,
place the appliance in the corner of the room -
there wooden floors are most secure and least
liable to resonance vibrations.
Never compensate for small unevennesses in the
floor by placing wood, pasteboard or such like.
The front adjustable feet must be blocked after
installation of the appliance by means of the
locking nuts.
Levelling
It is essential that your machine is absolutely level.
Raise or lower the front feet of the machine;
tighten the nuts of the feet with an adjustable
wrench (fig.1).
Also make sure that the machine does not touch
the wall, the furnitures etc. during the functioning.
This in order to avoid vibrations, noise or displace-
ments of the appliance during operation.
To move the washing machine, use the wheels at
the back of the appliance by pulling up the
appliance.
