Before beginning installation, carefully read these
instructions. This will simplify the installation and ensure
the washer is installed correctly and safely. Leave these
instructions near the washer after installation for future
reference.
NOTE: The electrical service to the washer must conform with
local codes and ordinances and the latest edition of the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70.

PRE-INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS

Tools Required for Installation:
1. Phillips screwdriver
2. 10 mm socket with ratchet.
3. Channel-lock adjustable pliers.
4. Carpenter's level.

ELECTRICAL REQUIREMENTS

CIRCUIT - Individual, properly polarized and grounded 15 amp.
branch circuit fused with 15 amp. time delay fuse or circuit breaker.
POWER SUPPLY - 2 wire, with ground, 120 volt, single phase, 60
Hz, Alternating Current. NOTE: Because of potential inconsistent
voltage capabilities, the use of this washer with power created by
gas powered generators, solar powered generators, wind powered
generators or any other generator other than the local utility
company is not recommended.
OUTLET RECEPTACLE - Properly grounded 3-prong receptacle to
be located so the power supply cord is accessible when the washer
is in an installed position. NOTE: GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter)
receptacle is not required.

GROUNDING REQUIREMENTS

Improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a
licensed electrician if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance
is properly grounded.
1. The washer MUST be grounded. In the event of malfunction
or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock
by a path of least resistance for electrical current.
2. Since your washer is equipped with a power supply cord having
an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug, the
plug MUST be plugged into an appropriate, copper wired
receptacle that is properly installed and grounded in accordance
with all local codes and ordinances or in the
absence of local codes, with the National Electrical
Codes, ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). If in doubt,
call a licensed electrician. DO NOT cut off or alter
the grounding prong on the power supply cord. In
situations where a two-slot receptacle is present,
it is the owner's responsibility to have a licensed
electrician replace it with a properly grounded
three prong grounding type receptacle.

WATER SUPPLY REQUIREMENTS

Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within
42 inches (107 cm) of your washer's water inlet. The
faucets MUST be 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) garden hose type
so inlet hoses can be connected. Water pressure MUST
be between 30 and 120 pounds per square inch (maximum
unbalance pressure, hot vs. cold, 10 psi.) Your water
department can advise you of your water pressure.

DRAIN REQUIREMENTS

1. Drain capable of eliminating 17 gals (64.3 L) per
minute.
2. A standpipe diameter of 1-1/4 in. (3.18 cm)
minimum.
3. The standpipe height above the floor should be:
Minimum height:
Maximum height: 96 in. (244 cm)
BACK
NOTE:
Drain hose attached to the washer can reach a 79
in. (201 cm) high standpipe. For higher standpipe,
use hose P/N 134889610, available from an
authorized parts distributor.
