COMBO
Removing the tub requires that you first remove the control panel and the front
panel. The front panel can be removed without removing the door. (See previous
pages for this procedure.) When the front has been removed, it is easy to remove
the tub. Remove the counterweights first to make this job easier. Regardless,
most of this procedure will require a helper.
