1.
Prepare your 3-wire cable
for direct connection
Direct wire cable must have 5 ft. (1.52 m)
of extra length so washer/dryer can
be moved if needed.
Strip 3-1/2" (89 mm) of outer covering
from end of cable. Strip insulation back
1" (25 mm). If using 3-wire cable with
ground wire, cut bare wire even with
outer covering. Shape ends of wires into a hook shape.
When connecting to the terminal block, place the hooked end
of the wire under the screw of the terminal block (hook facing
right), squeeze hooked end together, and tighten screw. See
example above.
