The pump assembly is located on the
right rear corner of the washer base.
The pump pulley is engaged to the drive
belt at all times and will be operating in
both motor directions: Clockwise during
agitation and counterclockwise during
spin. However, the pump is designed so
it will only discharge water from the
machine when it is running in the coun-
terclockwise, or spin direction.

1. Disconnect the unit from the power
source.
2. Remove the drain hose from the
pump outlet.

5. Remove the three (3) screws which
mount the pump assembly to the

engage the belt from the pulley.

sion drive pulley, making installation
easier.

ing and lift belt. Set the pump pulley into
the opening and place the belt on the
pulley. While holding tension on the belt
to keep it on the pulleys, install the
