Installation Before You Start Installing the Washer Tools Step 1: Remove the Shipping Brace and Shipping Plug For most installations, the basic tools you will need are: 1 Remove the shipping brace from under the lid. The shipping plug will be released from the base of the washer when removing the cardboard base from the washer. Refer to Figure 2. 2 3 The shipping brace and plug should be saved and must be reinstalled whenever washer is moved or transported to a new location.
Installation Step 2: Wipe Out Inside of Washtub Water Supply Requirements Prior to first wash, use an all purpose cleaner or a detergent and water solution and a damp cloth to remove shipping dust from inside of washtub. Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch (19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CONNECTIONS. NOTE: Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to permit turning them off when washer is not being used.
Installation Connecting Hoses Insert rubber washers and filter screens (from accessories bag) in water fill hose couplings (two hoses supplied with washer). Connect fill hoses to water supply faucets. Then connect the hoses to the hot and cold valve connections at the rear of the washer. Refer to Figure 4. Thread hose couplings onto valve connections finger tight. Then turn 1/4 turn with pliers. IMPORTANT: DO NOT cross thread or overtighten couplings.
Installation Step 4: Connect Drain Hose to Drain Receptacle If necessary, follow the instructions for your type of drain receptacle (high standpipe or low standpipe) to properly install the drain hose. Drain Facilities High Standpipe Installation IMPORTANT: The drain hose installation is a very important factor in the washer installation. If care is not taken when the drain hose is installed, a siphoning action can be started which will cause water to be siphoned from the washer during the cycle.
Installation Low Standpipe Installation If the drain facility is lower than the cabinet top, a siphon break kit, Part No. 562P3, must be installed in the drain hose to prevent siphoning action and drain hose MUST be cut to fit the washer installation. Refer to Figure 8. Use one No. 25863 Hose Coupling to splice hose. The No. 562P3 Siphon Break Kit and No. 25863 Hose Coupling are available as optional equipment at extra cost through an authorized dealer or parts distributor.
