4. MACHINE INSTALLATION
4.1. MACHINE INSPECTION
When the machine is delivered, it is necessary to do a visual inspection for any damage that may have occurred
during transit. If the package or pallet are damaged or signs of possible damage are evident, let the carrier
note the condition on the shipping papers before the shipping receipt is signed.
Remove the package as soon as possible and check if the information on the serial plate correspond with your
order. The serial plate is located on the rear of the machine, fig.4.1. This determines the type of model
you have bought, the voltage and the serial number.
Check if the machine is not damaged and if all the accessories are included according to your order.
The accessories and manuals are located inside the machine.
4.2. WASHER STORAGE
When the machine will be stored after delivery, be sure this is followed:
- Use the delivered package to protect the machine against moisture and dirt.
- The machine may not be installed within the reach of spraying water.
- Avoid severe climatic storage conditions and excessive humidity. When the temperature changes and this
causes damp, you must avoid water under and around the machine and also on his covers.
- If possible, leave the machine in the transporting package or at least let it set on the transporting wooden
id until the time of final installation on the foundation according the chapter 4.3. of this manual.
4.3. WASHER POSITIONING

Above the machine must be minimum 0.7m / 27.56" of free space for the maintenance access.
- All passages and spaces the machine has to be transported through at installation should be reasonably
dimensioned to meet the height and width of the machine including the package.
- Never push, pull or press the components protruding from the contour line of machine(control panel, door,
control elements, water inlet and outlet pipes, etc.).
- Make sure that the loading door is closed during handling.
- Take care that the floor where the machines will be placed is underneath supported. The washer should not be
installed on an upper floor or over a basement without approval of structural engineer about the requirements
of permissible loading, vibrations and noise level in the building.
