To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:
• Disconnect electric power to the washer before servicing.
• Never start the washer with any guards/panels removed.
• Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be
reconnected to ensure that the washer is properly grounded.
NOTE: Door seal installation can be improved
using water or soap solution to work seal around
circumference of loading door opening. Be sure to
orientate seal with the tab in the 12 o'clock position.
w. Disconnect ground wire from outer tub front
panel. Refer to Figure 38.
x. Remove nut, washers and screw holding clamp
ring to outer tub front panel. Refer to Figure 38.
y. Remove rubber seal from outer tub front panel
and discard.
IMPORTANT: Always replace seal with a new seal.
Spray or apply a mixture of diluted laundry
detergent to assist in installation of new seal. The
"puffy" side of seal should be installed to the inside
for best results.
NOTE: Install clamp screw with threads and nut
facing downward. Refer to Figure 38. Install metal
clamp ring by placing clamp ring opening at
approximately the 10 o'clock position to ensure no
interference is encountered with side panel or the
underside of the control cabinet. Tighten screw and
nut until a spacing of one inch is achieved at the
clamp ring opening. Tap clamp ring all around
while tightening the screw and nut.
z. Carefully remove inner basket out through
front of washer.
NOTE: When installing inner basket, apply No.
27604P Anti-Seize Compound to the area of inner
basket shaft that will be contacting the front and
rear bearings.
aa. Remove three screws holding bearing housing
arms to outer tub.
IMPORTANT: Prior to disassembly, note the
position of the pressure hose, hose clips and
mounting plate so parts can be reinstalled in the
same position. Refer to Figure 39.

three inner screws holding bearing housing to
rear of outer tub. Refer to Figure 39.

WARNING
NOTE: When installing the bearing housing, be
sure to route the pressure hose under the right arm
and attach hose and pressure hose clip to mounting
plate. Refer to Figure 30. Then route pressure hose
up to the hose mounting plate on the top arm. Refer
to Figure 30. Make sure there is no slack between
these two points. All excess pressure hose slack must
be collected between the top hose mounting plate on
the beaing housing arm and the pressure hose clip.
IMPORTANT: The three arm bolts should always
be tightened first and torqued to 275 inch pounds
(31.46 Nm). Then tighten the three inner bolts and
torque to 150 inch pounds (17.16 Nm).
NOTE: If a bearing failure should occur, a new
bearing housing assembly should always be used.
The bearings and seal are not serviceable parts.
Make sure the new bearing housing seal has
lubrication in all grooves before installation. If not,
lubricate seal.
a. Apply No. 27604P Anti-Seize Compound to
the area of the trunnion shaft that will be
contacting the front and rear bearings. Refer to
Figure 43.
b. Apply a film of grease to area of shaft that will
be contacting the bearing housing seal.
Figure 43. Make sure seal lips also are packed
with grease. Refer to Figure 43.
IMPORTANT: When installing inner basket, the
following steps must be taken to ensure that the seal
is properly orientated:
c. Install inner basket assembly by pushing all the
way into outer tub.
d. Install pulley, flat washer, lockwasher and left
hand thread screw. Refer to Figure 30.
IMPORTANT: When installing pulley, always use a
new cap screw (included in kit) to prevent screw
from loosening during operation. Use a thread tap
to clean old Loctite out of pulley screw receiving
hole before installing new screw. This ensures that
inner basket and pulley properly seat.
