Explanation of Safety Messages
Precautionary statements (“DANGER,” “W ARNING ,”
and “CAUTION”), followed by specific instructions,
are found in this manual and on machine decals. These
precautions are intended for the personal safety of the
operator, user, servicer, and those maintaining the
machine.
Important Safety Instructions
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

could ignite or explode.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORT ANT” is used
to inform the reader of specific procedures where
minor machine damage will occur if the procedure
is not followed.
NOTE: The word “NOTE” is used to communicate
installation, operation, maintenance or servicing
information that is important but not hazard
related.
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.
9. Do not install or store the washer where it will be
exposed to water and/or weather.
10. Do not tamper with the controls.
11. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer , or
attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance

17. To reduce the risk of fire, textiles which have
traces of any flammable substances such as
vegetable oil, cooking oil, machine oil,
flammable chemicals, thinner, etc., or anything
containing wax or chemicals such as in mops and
cleaning cloths, must not be put into the washer.
These flammable substances may cause the
fabric to catch on fire by itself.
20. If the supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced
by a special cord or assembly available from the
manufacturer or its service agent.
21. Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve
and that fill hose connections are tight. CLOSE
the shut-off valves at the end of each wash day.
22. Loading door MUST BE CLOSED any time the
washer is to fill, tumble or spin. DO NOT bypass
the loading door switch by permitting the washer
to operate with the loading door open.
23. Always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning
aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. T o reduce
the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep

Machine Foundation
Thoroughness of detail must be stressed with all
foundation work to ensure a stable unit installation,
eliminating possibilities of excessive vibration during
extract.
The washer-extractor must be placed on a smooth
level surface so that the entire base of the machine is
supported and rests on the mounting surface.
The standard installation does not require anchoring
unless mandated by state or local codes.
Kinetic energy of the cylinder and dynamic loads on
the floor or foundation are shown in Table 2.
Table 2 can be used as a reference when designing
floors and foundations.
4. To level machine, fill the spaces between the
machine base and floor with machinery grout.
Grout completely under all frame members.
Remove front and rear panels to gain access to all
frame members. Force grout under the machine
base until all voids are filled.
5. Remove the spacers carefully, allowing the
machine to settle into the wet grout.
6. Position washers and locknuts on machinery
anchor bolts and fingertighten to machine base.
7. After the grout is completely dry, tighten the
locknuts by even increments – one after the
other – until all are tightened evenly and the
machine is fastened securely to the floor.
CFS485N
Figure 11
After the concrete has cured and the anchors are
installed, proceed as follows:
1. Place the washer-extractor adjacent to the
foundation. Do not attempt to move it by pushing
on the sides. Always insert a pry bar or other
device under the bottom of the frame of the
washer-extractor to move it.
2. Place the washer-extractor carefully over the
anchors.
3. Put bolts through the machine in the anchors and
fasten them. For 18 and 30 models, the diameter
of the bolt must be minimum 1/2-13 or 12 mm.
For 33 and 40 models, the diameter of the bolt
must be minimum 5/8-11 or 16 mm.
A flexible connection must be made to a vented or air
gap drain system to prevent an air lock and to prevent
siphoning. If proper drain size is not available or
practical, a surge tank is required. A surge tank in
conjunction with a sump pump should be used when
gravity drainage is not possible, such as in belowground-level installations.
Before any deviation from specified installation
procedures is attempted, the customer or installer
should contact the distributor.
Increasing the drain hose length, installing elbows, or
causing bends will decrease, impairing washerextractor performance.
Refer to Table 3 for capacity-specific drain
information.
Installation of additional washer-extractors will
require proportionately larger drain connections. Refer
to Table 4.

W709
WARNING
Water Connection
The models are delivered with three hoses with
3/4 inch hose connectors. 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 30-85 psi (2-5.86 bar). If the pressure is too
low, the cycle time will increase considerably.
Connections should be supplied by a hot and a cold
water line per national and local codes.
To connect water service to machine with rubber
hoses, use the following procedure:
1. Before installing hoses, flush the water system
for at least two minutes.
2. Check filters in the washer-extractor’s inlet for
proper fit and cleanliness before connecting.
Pressure of 30-85 psi (2-5.86 bar) provides best
performance. Although the washer-extractor will
function at lower pressures, increased fill times will
occur with some loss of supply flushing.
Suitable air cushions should be installed in supply
lines to prevent “hammering.”

warranty does not cover compounds that fail as a
result of improper input voltage.
The washer-extractor should be connected to an
individual branch circuit not shared with lighting or
other equipment.
The connection should be shielded in a liquid tight or
approved flexible conduit with proper conductors of
correct size installed in accordance with the National
Electric Code or other applicable codes. The
connection must be made by a qualified electrician
using the wiring diagram provided with the washerextractor, or according to accepted European standards
for CE-approved equipment.
Use wire sizes indicated in Table 6 for runs up to
50 feet.
Use next larger size for runs of 50 to 100 feet. Use two
sizes larger for runs greater than 100 feet.
For personal safety and proper operation, the washerextractor must be grounded in accordance with state
and local codes. If such codes are not available,
grounding must conform with the National Electric
Code, article 250-95. The ground connection must be
made to a proven earth ground, not to conduit or water
pipes.
The AC inverter drive requires a clean power supply
free from voltage spikes and surges. A voltage monitor
should be used to check incoming power. The
customer’s local power company may provide such a
monitor.
If input voltage measures above 240V for a 220V
drive or above 415V for a 400V drive, ask the power
company to lower the voltage. As an alternative, a
step-down transformer kit is available from the
distributor.
The AC drive provides overload protection for the
drive motor. However, a separate single or three phase
circuit breaker must be installed for complete
electrical overload protection. This prevents damage
to the motor by disconnecting all legs if one should be
lost accidentally. Check the data plate on the back of
the washer-extractor or consult Table 6 for circuit
breaker requirements.
Remove the cover plate at the back of the machine.
Connect the power cable to the connectors using
copper conductors only.
