Check for leaks

8.Turn on the water faucets and check for leaks. A small

amount of water might enter the washer. You will drain this later.

NOTE: Replace inlet hoses after 5 years of use to reduce the

risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates for future reference.

If you connect only one water hose, you must cap off the remaining water inlet port.

Periodically inspect and replace hoses if bulges, kinks, cuts, wear, or leaks are found.

1, Drape the power cord over the console.

2, Remove any cardboard used to move washer,

3, Locate the remaining portion of shipping strap (not the end with the cotter pins) from step 3 of "Remove Shipping Strap."

If the washer faucets and the drain standpipe are recessed, put the hooked end of the drain hose in the standpipe. Tightly wrap the tie strap around the water inlet hoses and the drain hose. (See illustration 3.)

NOTE: If the coin slide mechanism has already been installed, skip this step and proceed to "Adjusting Coin Box."

Install Coin Slide

1.Remove the access panel from the top of the meter case by unlocking the service lock with the key shipped inside the parts bag found in the washer basket.

2.Deposit coins in coin slide and push coin slide all the way in. Hold coin slide in extended position and insert through opening in the front of the meter case.

3.From inside the meter case, place the threaded end of the bolt through the center mounting hole in the front of the meter case.

4.While holding the bolt in place, guide the coin slide mechanism onto the threads and into the guide holes in the front of the meter case.
