B. REMOVE SHIPPING STRAP

Removing the shipping strap is

necessary for smooth operation,

If the shipping strap is not removed, the washer will make

excessive noise.

To prevent floor damage, set washer onto

cardboard before moving across floor.

Move washer close to its final location.

STEP 1. Read, then remove the label over the electrical plug and shipping strap.

STEP 2. Pull the yellow shipping strap

completely out of the washer. There should be three cotter pins on the end of the shipping strap when it is pulled out of the washer. The electrical plug is attached to this shipping strap.

STEP 3. Pull firmly to remove the end of the shipping strap that remains pinned to the back of the washer. This

will release the rear self-leveling legs.
