Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or death to persons when using your washer, follow these basic precautions:
W023
1.Read all instructions before using the washer.
2.Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in the INSTALLATION manual for the proper grounding of the washer.
3.Do not wash textiles that have been previously cleaned in, washed in, soaked in, or spotted with gasoline, kerosene, waxes, cooking oils, drycleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
4.Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
5.Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
6.Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. Close supervision of children is necessary when the washer is used near children. This is a safety rule for all appliances.
7.Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing compartment.
8.Do not reach into the washer if the wash drum is moving.

Safety Information
Safe Operating Environment
Safe operation requires an appropriate operating environment for both the operator and the machine. If questions regarding safety arise, contact the factory immediately.
Environmental Conditions
●Ambient Temperature. Water in the machine will freeze at temperatures of
32° F or below.
Temperatures above 120° F (50° C) will result in more frequent motor overheating and, in some cases, malfunction or premature damage to solid state devices that are used in some models. Special cooling devices may be necessary.
Water pressure switches are affected by increases and decreases in temperature. Every 25° F (10° C) change in temperature will have a 1% effect on the water level.
●Humidity. Relative humidity above 90% may cause the machine’s electronics or motors to malfunction or may trip the ground fault interrupter. Corrosion problems may occur on some metal components in the machine.
If the relative humidity is below 30%, belts and rubber hoses may eventually develop dry rot. This condition can result in hose leaks, which may cause safety hazards external to the machine in conjunction with adjacent electrical equipment.
●Ventilation. The need for make-up air openings for such laundry room accessories as dryers, ironers, water heaters, etc., must be evaluated periodically. Louvers, screens, or other separating devices may reduce the available air opening significantly.
●Elevation. If the machine is to be operated at elevations of over 3,280 feet (1,000 meters) above sea level, pay special attention to water levels and electronic settings (particularly temperature) or desired results may not be achieved.
●Chemicals. Keep stainless steel surfaces free of chemical residues.

SW019
Input and Output Services
●Water Pressure. Best performance will be realized if water is provided at a pressure of 30–85 psi (2.0–5.7 bar). Although the machine will function properly at lower pressure, increased fill times will occur. Water pressure higher than 100 psi (6.7 bar) may result in damage to machine plumbing. Component failure(s) and personal injury could result.
●Steam Heat (Optional) Pressure. Best performance will be realized if steam is provided at a pressure of 30–80 psi (2.0–5.4 bar). Steam pressure higher than 125 psi (8.5 bar) may result in damage to steam components and may cause personal injury.
For machines equipped with optional steam heat, install piping in accordance with approved commercial steam practices. Failure to install the supplied steam filter may void the warranty.
●Compressed Air. For machines requiring compressed air service, best performance will be realized if air is provided at a pressure of 80–100 psi (5.4–6.7 bar).
●Drainage System. Provide drain lines or troughs large enough to accommodate the total number of gallons that could be dumped if all machines on the site drained at the same time from the highest attainable level. If troughs are used, they should be covered to support light foot traffic.
●Power. For personal safety and for proper operation, the machine must be grounded in accordance with state and local codes. The ground connection must be to a proven earth ground, not to conduit or water pipes. Do not use fuses in place of the circuit breaker. An easyaccess cutoff switch should also be provided.
WARNING
Dangerous voltages are present in the electrical control box(es) and at the motor terminals. Only qualified personnel familiar with electrical test procedures, test equipment, and safety precautions should attempt adjustments and troubleshooting.

Theory Of Operation
The design of the washer-extractor emphasizes performance reliability and long service life. The cylinder, shell, and main body panels are fabricated of stainless steel.
Electrical controls for the washer-extractor are housed in a separate enclosure located on the top of the machine. Removing the screws from the module cover, lifting the cover, and pulling to the rear provides
access to the control module. This module contains the WE-6 microcomputer, contactors, water-level switch, and other control components.
One dual-speed motor drives the cylinder via a V-belt drive in both speeds for the 2-speed models. Two motors drive the cylinder for the 3-speed models. The UW35 uses two ball bearings held in place by a single cast-iron housing that is bolted to the A-frame. The UW60 uses two flange-mounted, spherical roller bearings bolted to the A-frame.
12 |

F232090 |
The cylinder is constructed with lifters or ribs that lift the laundry from the bath solution when the cylinder rotates at slow speed and then allow the laundry to tumble back into the bath. This mechanical action accomplishes the washing function. The cylinder is perforated, allowing the water to drain from within during the wash and extract steps.
The spray rinse feature consists of a fiber-reinforced clear hose connected to the center of the door glass and to both a hot and cold water inlet valve. A hemispherically-shaped spray nozzle inside the door glass produces a fan-action water spray which disperses rinse water throughout the load.
The operator can select from among 39 preprogrammed cycles.
Programmable custom cycles are another feature of the UWP.
On the UW60, a balance switch is installed between the faces of the A-frame to signal the controls to slow the machine when a severely out-of-balance load occurs during extract.
Water enters the washer-extractor through electromechanical water valves controlled by the microcomputer. The microcomputer also controls the drain and the door lock. In addition, it selects the water levels according to the programmed cycle. Vacuum breakers are installed in the water-inlet plumbing to prevent backflow of water.
The standard production UWP uses a single drain valve. (Dual drains are available as an option. The dual drains open and close together under control of the WE-6 computer.) The drain valve is normally open, which means that it closes only when power is applied, thus allowing the machine to drain in the event of a power failure.
A door-lock system prevents opening of the stainless steel door when a cycle is in progress. It also prevents operation of the washer-extractor when the door is open. The doorbox contains the door-lock microswitch, door-closed magnetic switch, and the door unlock solenoid.
The UW35 shaft seal assembly includes two lip seals integrated into the cast-iron bearing housing. Each seal has two lips which make contact with a polished stainless steel bushing mounted to the shaft.
Operation
The UW60 shaft seal assembly includes a brass collar held in place on the cylinder shaft with set screws. The collar has a flange with a ceramic ring which makes contact with a spring-loaded phenolic face seal enclosed in a nylon housing mounted on the rear of the shell. The collar contains two internal O rings which maintain contact with the cylinder shaft.
The polypropylene supply dispenser is mounted on the right side of the washer-extractor, viewed from the front. The dispenser has five supply compartments, numbered 1–5, starting from the rear of the machine. The compartments hold plastic supply cups that are used for either liquid or dry supplies. A nozzle flushes supplies from the cups with water for the time programmed in the cycle.
Liquid supplies can be injected directly into the cups by a customer-supplied external chemical supply system. Five hose strain reliefs on top of the supply dispenser facilitate connection to an external supply system. A terminal strip inside a compartment attached to the left side of the control module, viewed from the rear of the washer-extractor, provides connection points for external supply signals.
Emergency Stop Button
A red emergency stop button is located on the upper right-hand corner of the control panel. Push the button in to stop the washer-extractor. Turn button to the left and pull out to reset.

Operation
WE-6 Microcomputer
The WE-6 microcomputer control is a fieldprogrammable solid-state control capable of storing and running up to 39 preprogrammed ready-to-use cycles. A detailed description of these cycles can be found in the Programming section of this manual under Individual Cycle Charts. (If this machine’s computer has been equipped with special preprogrammed cycles, a separate insert listing these cycles has been included in the resealable plastic bag which contained this manual.)
Never turn the power off while the computer mode switch is in the PROGRAM position. Such action will disorder portions of the programmed data, necessitating reprogramming of some or all of the existing cycles. Always return the mode switch to RUN position before turning the power off.Never leave the mode switch key inserted in the switch lock where it may be accessible to unauthorized personnel not familiar with programming procedures.
The computer control in this washer-extractor is continuously on the alert for problems within the machine. When the computer detects a problem, it immediately flashes a letter or number or both on the display. It may activate the signal buzzer as well.
LED Display
The WE-6 microcomputer has a six-digit LED display. References to display indications pertain to the first four digits of the display reading left to right. The last two digits on the right side of the display will indicate either the last cycle used or the current cycle in progress. See Figure 4.

Start-up
Turn on the main power source (circuit breaker or cutoff switch on the wall).
When AC power is turned on, the display will show the program (ROM) identification code.
This identification code will appear for approximately five seconds. Then the computer display will flash “POWER” and “WAIT” alternately for 30 seconds.
The display will then show “NEXT00” to indicate that a cycle can be selected. This display will be shown at all times that power is on between cycles, indicating that the door-unlock solenoid will function if the doorunlock button is pressed. The washer-extractor is then ready for loading and unloading.
