Drain

During the Drain Mode, the pump motor turns clockwise (as viewed from underneath the

washer). This causes the water pump to draw the water from the tub through the recirculation port, forcing the drain check ball to seal the drain sump port and force the water through the drain hose.

Drain Check Ball seals off Drain port, due to positive pump pressure, forcing water out

the drain hose.

Recirculation Check Ball drops from weight of water in tub and negative pressure from pump.
