INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

UNPACKING AND REMOVING

SHIPPING MATERIAL

1. After removing the carton and shipping material,

lift the washer off the foam base. Make sure the
plastic tub support comes off with the base and
is not stuck to the bottom of the washer.

Carton Base

If you must lay the washer down to remove the base
packaging materials, always protect the side of the
washer and lay it carefully on its side. DO NOT lay
the washer on its front or back.

2. Save the foam block for future use. If the washer

must be moved in the future, the foam block
will help prevent damage to the washer during
transportation.

NOTE:

To prevent damage, do not remove

the foam block until the washer is at the final
location.

3. Turn the top cover about 180 degrees. Cover the

upper hole with the

top cover and install 4 short

screws (included in packing box) to fix it in place.
