Installing The Appliance On A Concrete Base; Installing The Appliance On Floors Which Oscillate; Compensating For Floor Unevenness - Electrolux EW 1477 F User Manual

Installing the appliance on a con-
crete base
When installing the appliance on a concrete base,
mounting plates in which the washing machine is
positioned must be fitted for reasons related to
safety. The mounting plates are available from Cus-
tomer Service.
Installing the appliance on floors
which oscillate
When installing the appliance on oscillating floors, in
particular wooden beam floors with deal boards,
screw a water-resistant wooden slab of at least 15
mm thickness onto at least two of the floor beams. If
possible, place the appliance in a corner of the room
as it is here that the wooden floor is clamped tautest
and where therefore the tendency that resonance
vibrations will occur is lowest.

Compensating for floor unevenness

The four screw feet can be used to compensate for
unevenness in the floor and adjust the height. The
height can be adjusted within a range of +10 ... -6
mm.
To do this, use the accompanying special key that
was used to remove the transportation lock.
1. Slide the special key firmly onto the screw foot's
Allen screw as far as it will go.
2. Adjust the screw feet such that the appliance is
standing level and is stable. The appliance must
not wobble when a load is placed on one of its
corners.
3. Check the positioning of the appliance using a
spirit level if required.
Important: Never place wood, cardboard or simi-
lar materials to compensate for small unevenness
in the floor; always adjust the screw feet instead.
