Installation Instructions

INSTALLING THE WASHER (cont.)

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 solidly. Turn the lock nuts

on each leg up toward 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.

7.Attach U-shaped hose guide to the end of the drain hose. Place the hose in a laundry tub or standpipe and secure it with the cable tie provided in the enclosure package.

NOTE: Placing the drain hose too far down the drain pipe can cause a siphoning action. No more than 7 inches of hose should be in the drain pipe. There must be an air gap around the drain hose. A snug fit can cause a siphoning action.
