Installation
Machine Foundation
The machine must be secured to a foundation or floor of adequate construction. Detail must be stressed with all foundation work to ensure a stable unit installation, eliminating possibilities of excessive vibration. The machine must be anchored to a smooth level surface so that the entire base of the machine is supported and rests on the mounting surface. Do not support the machine on only four points. Anchor bolts must be a minimum of 3/4 inch diameter, grade 2. Refer to Mechanical Installation.
A base designed to elevate the UW50 to a comfortable and more accessible height for loading and unloading laundry may be used. Care must be exercised in the design of such a base due to the force exerted by the machine during extract (222 Gs).
Static and dynamic loads on the floor or foundation are shown in Table 2. This table can be used as a reference when designing floors and foundations.
NOTE: Machine must be installed on concrete floor that is a minimum of 12 inches thick. Do not mount on wooden floors. Do not install above ground floor. Floor must be solid.
