User-Maintenance Instructions
Cold Weather Care
If the washer is delivered on a cold day (below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area during the cold months, do not attempt to operate the washer until it has had a chance to warm up.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the control panel. Some cleaning products may harm the finish on the control panel. Wipe the panel dry after cleaning.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent, bleach or other washing products are spilled on the cabinet, wipe immediately. Some products will cause permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
The washtub will need no particular care though it may need rinsing or wiping after some unusual loads have been washed. This also may be necessary if too little detergent has been used.
Leave the loading door open to allow the inside of the washer to dry out after use. This helps prevent musty odors from developing.
The agitator should not be removed except for service. The washtub is designed to be self cleaning.
Replacing Hoses
Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the temperature and constant high pressure they are subjected to.
All hoses should be checked on a yearly basis for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced every five years.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or damage annually. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal, check the filter screens. Clean or replace them if necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. F270300 from the nearest authorized parts distributor.
Maintenance
Reinstallation of Shipping Materials
Shipping Brace
The shipping brace in the lid opening should be saved and reinstalled whenever the washer is moved. To reinstall the brace, open the washer lid and place the brace over the washer agitator, placing the back of the brace into the lid opening first.
Shipping Plug
The plastic shipping plug should be saved and reinstalled any time the washer is moved. The plug fits into two openings: The base opening and the shipping plug opening on the bottom of the movable pivot dome. The plug MUST be inserted into both openings to prevent damage to the washer. In order to accomplish this, the shipping plug opening must be directly lined up with the base opening. Refer to

Motor Overload Protector
The internal overload protector will stop the motor automatically in the event of an overload.
The overload protector will reset itself in two or three minutes and the motor will restart automatically.
If the overload protector stops motor again, remove the washer from use and call the service person to correct the problem.
