Installation Instructions

InStaLLIng tHE WaSHEr

1.Run some water from the hot and cold faucets to flush the water lines and remove particles that might clog up the water valve screens.

2.Remove the inlet hoses from the plastic bag.

3.(90° elbow end) Carefully connect the inlet hose marked HOT to the outside “H” outlet of the water valve.

Tighten by hand, then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Carefully connect the other inlet hose to the inside “C” outlet of the water valve. Tighten by hand; then tighten

another 2/3 turn with pliers. Do not crossthread or over-tighten these connections.

4.Connect the inlet hose ends to the HOT and COLD water faucets tightly by hand, then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Turn the water on and check for leaks.

5.Carefully move the washer to its final location. Gently rock the washer into position. It is important not to damage the rubber leveling legs when moving your washer

to its final location. Damaged legs can increase washer vibration. It may be helpful to spray window cleaner on the floor to help move your washer into its final position. nOtE: To reduce vibration, ensure that all four rubber leveling legs are firmly touching the floor. Push and pull on the back right and then back left of your washer.

nOtE: Do not use the dispenser drawer or door to lift the washer.

nOtE: If you are installing into a drain pan, you can use a 24-inch long 2x4 to lever the washer into place.

6.With the washer in its final position, place a

level on top of the washer (if the washer is installed under a counter, the washer should not

be able to rock). Adjust the front leveling legs

up or down to ensure the washer is resting solid. Turn the lock nuts on each leg up towards

the base of the washer and snug with a wrench.

nOtE: Keep the leg extension at a minimum to prevent excessive vibration. The farther out the legs are extended, the more the washer will vibrate.

If the floor is not level or is damaged, you may have to extend the rear leveling legs.
