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, dry-cleaning 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.
Additional precautionary statements (“IMPORTANT”
and “NOTE”) are followed by specific instructions.
IMPORTANT: The word “IMPORTANT” 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 extract
compartment.
8. Do not reach into the washer if the extract drum
or the wash agitator is moving.
9. Do not tamper with the controls.
10. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or
attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance
instructions or in published user-repair
instructions that the user understands and has the
skills to carry out.
11. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO
NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to
connect the washer to the electrical power source.
12. Use washer only for its intended purpose,
washing textiles.
13. ALWAYS disconnect the washer from electrical
supply before attempting any service.
14. Install the washer according to the
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All
connections for water, drain, electrical power and
grounding must comply with local codes and be
made by licensed personnel when required.
15. 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.
16. Do not use fabric softeners or products to
eliminate static unless recommended by the
manufacturer of the fabric softener or product.
18. Replace worn power cords and/or loose plugs.
19. 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.
20. Always read and follow manufacturer’s
instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning
aids. Heed all warnings or precautions. To reduce
the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep
them out of the reach of children at all times
(preferably in a locked cabinet).
21. Always follow the fabric care instructions
supplied by the textile manufacturer.
22. Never operate the washer with any guards
and/or panels removed.
23. DO NOT operate the washer with missing or
broken parts.
24. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.
25. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this
washer according to the manufacturer's
instructions may result in conditions which can
produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
NOTE: The WARNING and IMPORTANT
SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this
manual are not meant to cover all possible
conditions and situations that may occur. Common
sense, caution and care must be exercised when
installing, maintaining, or operating the washer.
Any problems or conditions not understood should be
reported to the dealer, distributor, service agent or the
manufacturer.
17. Keep washer in good condition. Bumping or
dropping the washer can damage safety features.
If this occurs, have washer checked by a qualified
service person.

Machine Anchoring
Bolting to floor is optional. To bolt down the machine,
use 3/8 inch bolt holes located on the frame at the
bottom of each corner. One quarter inch machine
anchors should be used.
NOTE: The control voltage is 220 V for all
systems.
Table 4
Grounding
For personal safety and proper operation, the machine
must be grounded in accordance with state and local
codes. If such codes are not available, grounding must
conform with the National Electric Code. The ground
connection must be to a proven earth ground at the
location service panel and/or to a grounded metal cold
water pipe.
Use wire size indicated in Electrical Specifications
table for runs up to 50 feet. Use next larger size for
runs of 50 – 100 feet. Use TWO
sizes larger for runs
greater than 100 feet. This protects against voltage
drop which would result in a reduction of starting
torque.
Phase Adder
If three-phase service is not available and a RotoPhase or other phase adder is used, the artificial leg
must be connected to the L3A lead.
If a delta supply system is used, the high leg must be
connected to the L3 lead at the J-box.
NOTE: Rotation of the extractor basket should be
clockwise as indicated by the arrow on the lid. To
change direction of extractor rotation, interchange
the L1 and L2 leads.
IMPORTANT: Improper connections will result in
equipment damage and will void the warranty.
Connection Specifications
IMPORTANT: Connection must be made by a
qualified electrician using wiring diagram provided
with machine. Use liquid tight conduit and
connectors.
NOTE: Machine has passed rain test and is
certified for use in wet locations.
Ensure that a ground wire from a proven
earth ground is connected to the ground
lug near the input power block on this
machine. Without proper grounding,
personal injury from electric shock could
occur and machine malfunctions may be
evident.
