Electrical system requirements
CIRCUIT - Individual, properly polarized and grounded
15 amp. branch circuit fused with 15amp. time delay
fuse or circuit breaker.
POWER SUPPLY- 2 wire, with ground, 120 volt single
phase, 60 Hz, Alternating Current.
Because of potentially inconsistent voltage capabilities,
the use of this washer with power created by gas
powered generators, solar powered generators, wind
powered generators or any other generator other than
the local utility company is not recommended.
OUTLET RECEPTACLE- Properly grounded 3-prong
receptacle to be located so the power supply cord is
accessible when the washer is in an installed position.

Power €ord With
B-preng greunded plug
GFI (Ground Fault Interrupter) receptacle is not

Ground requirements
Water supply requirements
Hot and cold water faucets MUST be installed within hose
length of your washer's water inlet. The faucets MUST
be 3/4 inch (1.9 cm) with threading for laundry hose
connection. Water pressure MUST be between 30 and
120 psi. Pressure difference between hot and cold cannot
be more than i0 psi. Your water department can advise
you of your water pressure.
Drain system requirements
1 Drain capable of eliminating 17 gals (64.3 L) per
minute.
2 A standpipe diameter of i-i/4 in. (3.18 cm)
minimum.
3 The standpipe height above the floor should be:
Minimum height: 24 in. (6! cm)
Maximum height: 96 in. (244 cm)

Drain hose attached to the washer can reach a 74 in.
(i88 cm) high standpipe. For higher standpipe, use
hose P/N 137098000, available from an authorized
parts distributor.
Improper connection of the equipment grounding
conductor can result in a risk of electrical shock. Check
with a licensed electrician if you are in doubt as to
whether the appliance is properly grounded.
1 The washer MUST begrounded. In the event of
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce
the risk of electrical shock by a path of least
resistance for electrical current.
2 Since your washer is equipped with a power supply
cord having an equipment-grounding conductor
and a grounding plug, the plug MUST be plugged
into an appropriate, copper wired receptacle that is
properly installed and grounded in accordance with
all local codes and ordinances or in the absence
of local codes, with the National Electrical Codes,
ANSI/NFPA 70 (latest edition). If in doubt, call a
licensed electrician. DO NOT cut off or alter the
grounding prong on the power supply cord. In
situations where a two-slot receptacle is present,
it is the owner's responsibility to have a licensed
electrician replace it with a properly grounded three
prong grounding type receptacle.
Clearance requirements
INSTALL YOUR WASHER:
1 In an area exposed to dripping water or outside
weather conditions, The ambient temperature
should never be below 60° F (i5,6 ° C) to
maximize detergent effectiveness.
2 In an area (garage or garage-type building)
where gasoline or other flammables (including
automobiles) are kept or stored.
3 On carpet, Floor MUST be solid with a maximum
slope of 1 inch (2.5 cm). To minimize vibration
or movement, reinforcement of the floor may be
necessary.
Installation in a Recess or Closet

door ventilation is required: A minimum of 120 square
inches (774,2 cm 2) of opening, equally divided at the top
and bottom of the door, is required. Louvered openings
should be located 3 inches (7,6 cm) from bottom and
top of door. Air openings are required to be unobstructed
when a door is installed. A Iouvered door with equivalent
air openings for the full length of the door is acceptable.

Leveling your washer
Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by
properly leveling the washer.
1 For free standing installation and with the washer
within 4 feet (1 m) of its final location, place a level
on top of the washer.
2 Use adjustable pliers to adjust the leveling legs so
the washer is level front-to-rear and side-to-side,
and stable corner-to-corner.
3 Press down on alternate corners and sides and feel
for the slightest movement. Adjust the appropriate
leg(s) so the washer sits solidly on the floor on
ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a
minimum for best performance of the washer.
For pedestal installations, see additional installation
instructions included with the pedestal.
Connecting inlet water
1 Run some water from the hot and cold faucets
to flush the water lines and remove particles
that might clog the water valve screens and to
determine which faucet is hot and which is cold
supply.
RUBBER WASHERS
MUST BE PRESENT
Hoses are not included with washer purchase, See
"Accessories" section for various inlet hose kits to fit
your specific installation,
2 Connect the HOT inlet hose to the HOT inlet
connection on the washer and the COLD inlet
hose to the COLD inlet connection on the washer.
Tighten by hand until snug. Then tighten each
supply connection another 2/3 turn with pliers.
Do not cross thread or over-tighten these
connections,
3 Connect the HOT inlet hose to the HOT water
supply and the COLD inlet hose to the COLD water
supply. Tighten by hand until snug. Then tighten
each supply connection another 2/3 turn with
pliers. Do not bend, kink or pinch water inlet
hoses.
4 Turn on the water and check for leaks.

1 Locate the anti-siphon ring shipped with your
washer. Place it over the end of the drain hose and
slide it past the first ring of "accordion" ribs.
2 Form a "U" shape on the end of the drain hose
with the hose pointed toward the drain. Place the
formed end in a laundry tub or a standpipe and
secure the drain hose with the cable tie (provided
in the enclosure package) to the standpipe, inlet
hose, laundry tub, etc. so the hose does not pull
out from the force of the water.
The standpipe inside diameter must be 1-1/4" (3.2 cm)
minimum. There must be an air gap around the drain
hose in the standpipe. A snug hose fit can cause a
siphoning action.
)Check to ensure the power is off at a circuit breaker/
fuse box before plugging the power cord into an outlet.
3 Plug the power cord into a grounded outlet.
