General safety instructions
Ignoring any of the safety instructions can cause serious personal injury and can also cause damage to the linen or the
machine
Read the installation and instruction manual carefully before connecting the
p
machine.
It is recommended that the machine be installed by qualified technicians.
p
The machine should be installed according to the installation instructions. (See
p
chapter 3)
The machine should be grounded according to the instructions in order to
p
eliminate the risk of electrocution.
Do not expose the machine to high humidity or extreme high or low tempera-
p
tures.
Cut off all main water inlets, steam and electrical supplies at the end of each
p
operating day.
1
Before starting repairs or maintenance, shut off all power and water supplies.
p
To prevent fire and explosion:
p
Keep the area around the machine free from inflammable or combustible
products.
Do not put fabrics that are treated with inflammable products into the machine.
These fabrics should be hand-washed or air-dried first.
Always carefully read and follow the instructions on the packing of detergents.
p
Store these products out of the reach of children.
Always take into account the instructions on the labels of clothes.
p
Never allow children to play in the surroundings of a machine.
p
Remark:
These instructions surely cannot prevent all risks of accidents. It is up to the user to act with the utmost
p
precaution.
Do not hesitate to contact the dealer in case of a problem.

Installation and connection
Ground
The machine must be placed on a flat, solid surface (metal base, concrete or solid
ground). It is recommended that the machine be anchored on the provided places
(A) in the base, especially in case of a plinth. (See Dimensions 2)
The machine must be placed entirely level. For easy maintenance it is recommended to keep a minimal distance of 600 mm between the wall and the back of the
machine.
If several machines are placed next to each another, there should be a minimal
distance of 30 mm between each machine.
Removing the transport brackets
To prevent damage during transportation, the machine has been equipped with
two red transport brackets (D) to eliminate every possible movement of the tub.
After the machine has been placed level, take off the service panel and remove
these transport brackets.
3
Water connection
Important
The machine must never be activated before removing these transport
brackets.
The machine is delivered with hoses with 3/4" connections. These hoses fit the
water inlet valves of the machine and the main water inlet taps. To ensure the
optimal functioning of the water inlet valves, the water pressure on the inlet
should be between 0,5 and 10 kg/cm² (7 and 145 psi). If the pressure is too low,
the cycle time will increase considerably.
In case of boiler fed machines, a minimum of hot water of 90°C should be available:
For the HF145: 110l. HF205: 135l.
For the HF176: 125l. HF234: 150l.

Water drain
Main power connection
The machine is equipped with a drain valve with 6/4" outer diameter (50 mm). This
drain valve should be connected to the drain by means of the drain elbow which
is delivered with the machine.
The diameter of the main drain should be adapted to the water flow and the
p
number of machines. It should be sufficient to handle at least 80L/min. per
machine.
It is necessary to connect the main drain at least on one side to an open air-
p
brake to allow ventilation.
When the main drain has not been sufficiently deodorized, every machine
p
should be installed seperately with a deodorizer.
In case of machines with electrical heating two seperate connections
p
should always be used. One for the motor circuit, one for the heating.
After connection, check the spin direction. The cylinder must spin in the
p
direction of the arrow, showed on the sticker on the door window
(clockwise).
A wrong spin direction can damage the motor, and can also cause water
to spurt from the soap dispenser.
In case of wrong spin direction: switch the terminal clamps of the motor
p
circuit R and S of the connecting cable.

Select program
Press the red button on the doorhandle and open the door.
The machines have 5 wash programs. Sort the linen according to the quality and
the allowed wash temperature. Remove all nails, coins, etc. that can damage the
linen or the machine during the wash cycle. Turn sleeves of overcoats, shirts and
blouses inside out. To increase the wash action and thus the quality of the wash,
it is recommended to mix large and small pieces.
If the machine is filled less than 80% of the capacity, this could prevent a good
operation and can even damage the machine.
Overloading the machine can be the cause of low wash quality.
Press the button of the desired program: (1-5)
1. Hot wash(2 baths)(40°/90°C)
2. Warm wash(2 baths)(40°/60°C)
3. Synthetics(2 baths)(40°/40°C)(No final spin 1000rpm)
4. Synthetics(1 bath)(40°C)(No final spin 1000rpm)
5. Gentle/Wool(1 bath)(30°C or cold) (No final spin 1000rpm)
Add detergents
Remark:
Program 4 & 5 low water level and normal wash action. For high water level and
reduced wash action, press button 8.
It is recommended to use only those detergents with reduced foam. These are
often available in the laundrette, and are also easily found in shops. The dose you
should use is normally indicated on the packing.
Overdosing of soap can lead to poor wash results and foam bubbling out of the
machine can damage it.

Autom. reset
Man. reset
The thermic overload relay turns off in case of overloading. Because this relay
is installed on automatical reset, after a while the motors are switched back on
automatically.
The tilt switch is mounted on the solid part of the machine. There is a window
around the probe of the tilt switch that is mounted on the movable part of the
machine.
When the machine goes out of balance by overloading or uneven distribution of
the linen, the tilt switch will interrupt this action to prevent damage to the machine.
Important
To guarantee good functioning, the probe should be centered horizontally
and vertically at 1/3 from the bottom of the tilt window (when machine drum
is empty).
The spin is controlled by the electronical repetition system. This system is
responsible for the drive of the different motors during high and low spin.
Operation:
The printboard will be activated during the drain, and the following actions occur:
a) The micromotor of the programmer stops.
b) The distribution speed is activated and the drain valve opened.
c) After the water is drained completely, the machine starts low spin at 500 rpm.
d) After 240" low spin, high spin starts at 1000 rpm.
Remarks:
The duration of the high spin (1000rpm) is determined by the programmer.
p
In case the machine is out of balance during spinning, the spin motor will stop while
p
the linen is redistributed via the wash action. After 30 sec. the machine will try again
to spin.
Every time the machine is out of balance the spin time shortens by 30 sec. (Not with
p
PLC-9).
When the drain valve is obstructed, the same things happen as when the machine
p
is out of balance.
After a power failure during spinning, the machine starts at point a) (see operation).
p
After an interruption by the thermo-magnetic motor protection during spinning,
the machine starts at point a) of the described operation.
p
Machines with electronical microprocessor PLC-9 have the repetition system
printboard integrated on the main printboard. In this case the repetition process
p
will be executed no more than 15 times without shortening the spin time.

General maintenance
Periodical maintenance
Clean the entire cabinet of the machine regularly and remove all traces of soap,
p
etc....
Remove all detergent residue in the soap dispenser with hot water.
p
p
Clean the door gasket and remove all detergents and other products.
Shut off the main water, steam and power connections at the end of each day.
p
Do not change the setting of the water inlet taps on boiler fed machines once
these have been installed.
p
It is recommended to leave the door and the soap dispenser open after use,
to ventilate the machine.
The V-belts of the motors should be retightened after two to three months
p
when first used. This is necessary because these belts are subject to a onetime stretching when first used. By ignoring this instruction, the belt starts
to slip after a few months and will brake shortly afterwards.
Check regularly if the filters of the water inlet are not blocked by calcification.
p
If a machine frequently skips the final spin, check whether the probe of the
out of balance switch is still in the appropriate position, that is horizontally
p
centered and vertically 1/3 from the bottom inside the window. (When the
drum is empty).
