INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

UNPACKING AND REMOVING SHIPPING BOLTS

When removing the washer from the carton base, be sure to remove the foam drum support in the middle of the carton base. See drawing below.

If you must lay the washer down to remove the base packaging materials, always protect the side of the washer and lay it carefully on its side. DO NOT lay the washer on its front or back.

To prevent internal damage during transport, the washer is equipped with four shipping bolts and plastic retainers.

IMPORTANT:

These shipping bolts and retainers MUST NOT be removed until just before moving the washer into its final position.

These bolts and retainers MUST be removed before operating the washer.

Failure to remove shipping bolts and retainers may cause severe vibration and noise, which can lead to permanent damage to the washer.

NOTE: The power cord is secured to the back of the washer with a shipping bolt to help prevent operation with shipping bolts in place.
