Installation surface
A concrete floor is the most suitable in-
stallation surface for this machine. It is
far less prone to vibration during the
spin cycle than wooden floorboards or
a carpeted surface.
The machine must be level and se-
curely positioned.
To avoid vibrations during spinning,
the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.
If installing on a wooden joist floor:
Install the machine on a plywood
base (at least 2' 3 9/16" x 1' 11 5/8" x
1 3/16" (70x60x3cm)). The base
should span several joists and be
bolted to the joists and not only to the
floorboards.
Tip: If possible, install the machine in a
corner of the room. This is usually the
most stable part of the floor.
Removing the shipping struts
Remove the left and right caps.
1. Pull on the secured cap stoppers
2. and use a screwdriver to release the
catches at the top and bottom.
Using the wrench supplied, turn the
left-hand shipping strut 90°.
