INSTALLATION REQUIREMENTS
Tools, Parts, and Equipment
Read and follow the instructions provided with any tools listed here.
Tools Needed
Washers must be installed by professional installers, who
should have a full compliment of standard SAE and metric hand
tools, and specialized tools as required. Gather the required
tools and parts before starting installation.
Additional Materials
Additional materials may be required for this type of installation and
the customer is responsible for supplying additional hardware and
adapters as necessary. Refer to your model’s Spare Parts Catalogue
for more information.
Parts Supplied
Remove parts bag from washer drum. Check that all parts were
included. The number of parts supplied varies with model.
■
Molded rubber drain hose and band clamp (1 each)
■
Rubber washers for the hoses (4)
■
Water supply hoses (2)
Equipment for Handling, Transport, and Storage
Use a lift truck or a manual skid cart for handling the washer when
it still is in the packaging material.
■
The lift truck forks must be at least 4" (100 mm) longer
than the length of the washer frame.
Location Requirements
Washers must be installed on a level concrete floor on the
ground level of a building. Washers should not be installed on a floor
other than the ground floor, or in a room with a basement or on a
floor with rooms below without approval of a structural engineer.
Proper installation is your responsibility and must meet all governing
codes and ordinances.
Working Conditions
■
Washers should not be installed within reach of spraying water.
■
Do not install washer where it will be exposed to weather or
excessive humidity. Do not allow water or condensation to
run over walls or floor under washer. Ambient temperature for
storage or transportation must be between 34 and 131°F
(1 and 55°C).
Floor
Space requirements for installations are determined by the number
of washers being installed. See “Technical Specifications” and
“Installation Instructions” for more detailed information.
■
Installation must be on a solid concrete floor or slab capable
of withstanding the weight and vibration produced by the
washer. The maximum slope of the floor is 1° under the washer.
A rough, uncovered concrete surface is preferable to a smooth
or covered surface.

■
If possible, leave the washer in the packaging or on wooden
skid until foundation is prepared for installation. Washer is
attached to skid by four (4) M-16 bolts.
■
See “Moving to Final Location” for more information on moving
washer to its final location.
■
Soft-Mount models do not have to be anchored. However;
if anchoring is necessary, follow the step in the “Anchoring”
section.
■
Rigid-mount models must be secured with four (4) or eight (8)
M16 anchoring bolts, depending on machine size. Install all
anchors before final installation of the washer.
■
Allow for adequate sanitary sewer drainage, located behind
the washers.
