Single Machine Foundation Require-

ments

A minimum 3500 psi (refer to rating per supplier) reinforced con-

crete set on a prepared bed is required for all new machine instal-

lations.

NOTE: Do not mount on metal base frames, wooden

floors, tile floors, elevated floor levels, or over base-

ments or crawl spaces because of the high extract

speed and the G-forces exerted.

Thoroughness of detail must be stressed with all foundation work

to ensure a stable unit installation, eliminating possibilities of ex-

cessive vibration during extract.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, serious injury, property

damage and/or death, install the machine on a level

(within 3/8 inch), uncovered concrete floor of suffi-

cient strength at grade.

W787

For new foundations a mounting bolt template is available at ex-

tra cost or use machine base if available.

The machine must be anchored to a smooth level surface so that

the entire base of the machine is supported and rests on the

mounting surface.

IMPORTANT: Do not permanently support the machine

on only four points with spacers. Grouting is required

and spacers must be removed.

Machine Installation on Existing Floor

The existing floor slab must be reinforced concrete without voids

under slab and meet depth requirements per Table 1. If the floor

meets these requirements and an elevated pad is NOT desired, re-

fer to Figure 1 and proceed to Machine Mounting and Grouting

section.

Elevated Pad Installation on Existing Floor

The existing floor slab must be 6 inches [152 mm] thick rein-

forced concrete without voids under slab. If the slab meets these

requirements and an elevated pad is desired, refer to Figure 2 and

proceed to Machine Foundation and Pad Installation section.

New Foundation

If the existing floor slab does not meet the single machine foun-

dation requirements, refer to Figure 3 and proceed to Machine

Foundation and Pad Installation section.

Isolated Pad Installation

This type of installation is NOT recommended. Installer MUST

consult a Structural Engineer for concrete specifications and re-

quirements for installations that will not be tied into adjacent

foundations.

IMPORTANT: The above instructions and recommenda-

tions are conservative specifications for a typical in-

stallation based on consultations with a structural en-

gineer. Alliance Laundry Systems stands behind all in-

stallations meeting these specifications. For alternate

installation specifications based on your soil type, lo-

cation, building structure, unique floor geometry, ma-

chine types, and utilities, consult a structural engineer

in your local area.
