Installing the Washer
NOTE: If the washer is delivered on a cold day
(below freezing), or is stored in an unheated room
or area during the cold months, do not attempt to
operate it until the washer has had a chance to
warm up.
Step 1: Position Washer Near Installation
Area
Move washer so that it is within 4 feet (1.2 meters) of
the desired area of installation.
NOTE: For best performance and to minimize
vibration or movement, install washer on a solid,
sturdy and level floor. Some floors may need to be
reinforced, especially on a second floor or over a
basement. Do not install the washer on carpeting,
soft tile, a platform or other weakly supported
structures.

Step 2: Connect Fill Hoses
NOTE: Refer to section on Water Supply
Requirements before connecting fill hoses.
Turn on the water supply faucets and flush the lines for
approximately two minutes to remove any foreign
materials that could clog the screens in the water
mixing valve.
NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or
renovated building, it is very important to flush the
lines since build-up may have occurred during
construction.
Insert each filter screen into the end of each fill hose that
will connect to the water supply faucet. The screen must
be facing outward. Refer to
Figure 3 .
Insert each plain rubber washer into the other end of
each fill hose that will connect to the water mixing
valve at the rear of the washer. Refer to
Figure 3 .
IMPORTANT: Thread hose couplings onto valve
connections finger-tight, then approximately
1/4 turn with pliers. DO NOT cross thread or
overtighten couplings.
Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found,
retighten the hose couplings. Continue tightening and
rechecking until no leaks are found.
