WASHER REQUIREMENTS
Water pressure
of 20 to 120 p.s.i, is required
to correctly
fill the washer
to the proper
levels.
DRAIN FACILITY
Recommended
height of the stand pipe is 36 inches.
If the stand pipe is less than 36 inches high, the drain
hose should
be routed through
the clip to raise the hose to the proper
height.
Stand pipe must be large
enough
to accept the outside
diameter
of the drain hose.
Without
the 36 inches
high elevation,
water may run out of the washer prematurely.
Should the washer
fill and drain at the same time could indicate that the drain hose has not been elevated
to the proper height.
The drain hose is attached
at the factory.
Maximum
flow rate is 12 gallons
per minute.
FLOORING
For best performance
the washer
must be installed
on a solidly constructed
floor.
Wood floors may need to
be reinforced
to minimize
vibration
and/or
unbalanced
load situations.
Carpeting
and soft tile surfaces
are
contributing
factors
in vibration
and/or tendency
for a washer
to move slightly
during the spin cycle.
Never
install the washer
on a platform
or weak supported
structure.
LOCATION CONSIDERATIONS
It is recommended
the washer
never be installed
in areas where water may freeze since the washer
will
always
maintain
some water in the water valve, pump and hose areas.
This can cause damage
to belts,
pump, hoses and other components.
Operating
temperature
should
be above 60°F.
