The full size electronic washer incorporates optimum washability, capacity , quiet operation, and ease of service. The
washer is 100 percent front serviceable, with 40% few er parts. It f eatures an A uto Balance suspension system, that
allows greater out of balance capacity.
Drive system has a rotating transmission with metal gears and a disc brake, and it comes as a single replaceable
component. The brake is activated when the end of cycle occurs and also, when the lid is lifted.
All washers are manufactured and supplied with provisions f or proper grounding. The installation instructions advise
on proper grounding. Safety devices should never be removed unless for servicing, and must always be replaced
prior to placing the washer back in active service.
The mini manual is located in the backsplash, and contains service information

Lint Removal System
1.
The lint filtering system consist of the turbo pump,
agitator, air bell, and self cleaning filter at bottom of
spin basket. During agitate water moves throught
the sides and up from the bottom throught the self
cleaning filters.
During pump down, prior to spin, the turbo pump is
energized, and water is drawn out the sides and
down through the self cleaning filter to clean and
removal lint from the bottom side of the filter area,
and flush lint down the drain.
Energy Saving
All wash cycles include energy-saving cold water

Control Panel
The control panel is designed with ease of service
being the major consideration. The switches are
tab interlock, and harness connectors are designed
to only fit the correct mating connector. Control
panel is galvanized, with three tabs designed to allow the switchtrim to be supported during service.
Mini-Manual is located in the control panel.
1. Remove four (4) T20H Torx screws from the top
of control panel as shown. (Mini-Manual can be
accessed from this position as illustrated.
2. Water valve is serviceable by removing the (4)
T20H Torx screws from the top of the control panel,
and rotating the switchtrim forward. Two 1/4” hex
screws mount the water valve to the console. The
water valve can be changed from the front by first
“pinching off” the inlet hoses and pulling through

Suspension
REMOVE ROD AND SPRING
ASSEMBLIES IN FRONT
The suspension system is unique in that the spin
basket, tub, and leg and platf orm assembly are suspended for the rod support. The rod suppor t sets
atop the cabinet and provides, through 4 sock et liners durable ball joints. The rod support gives the
suspension a pivot point for the rod and spring assembly . A dampening system consisting of 4 dampening straps mounted to the tub cover, dampens
rotation movement during start up and braking.
The 4 spring and rod assemblies should be replaced
in with the correct part, since the spring compression is different for the front and the bac k. This is to
compensate for the added weight of the motor . The
plastic cover ov er the spring assemblies provides a
housing that acts as an air shock, to give proper
compression during the movement of the wash action. The spring and rod assembly have been tested
to support a weight of 700 lbs. each, to insure a
durable suspension system.
ROD AND SPRING FUNCTIONS AS
AN AIR SHOCK (CUT AWAY VIEW)
To Ser vice Suspension
1. Remove front panel. Remove co v er and lid.
2. Remo ve 4 dampening screws front dampeners
at tub cover.
3. Remove front rod and spr ing assemblies. (One
at a time), by lifting tub/platform up with one hand
to take weight off of suspension bellows.
(NOTE: to remove rod and spring assembly, hold
down on ball joint and pull rod forward gently to release.)
4. Using thumb and forefinger to release, pull the
bellows out of the platform, and allow to hang freely.
Repeat for other side of front.
5. The tub/platform assembly will no w lean forward;
after both rod and spring assemblies are released.
Access the rear spring through the top of the cabinet, and unhook the two rear spring and rod assemblies.
(TECH TIP: Allow the front and back rod and
spring assemblies to hang freely , they won’t be
in your way, and it will keep the proper r od and
spring correctly located.)

TRANSMISSION
New Transmission provides durability with its all-metal
gears. There are no plastic gears to w ear or break. Allmetal gears provide more durability than plastic gears
of the same size. These metal gears allow for a smaller
and more balanced transmission. Agitation is accomplished by turning the transmission in a clockwise motion. Spin speeds occur when the tr ansmission is spun
or rotated in a counterclockwise motion. A triple lip seal
with garter spring provides tub seal system. Care must
be taken to make sure garter spring is in place when
replacing transmission. The tub bushing is an oil impregnated type, and is not replaceable. It is molded in
place at the factory .
