INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
Installation surface
Experience has shown that a concrete
floor is the most suitable surface for a
washing machine. Concrete floors are
far less prone to vibration during the
spin cycle than wooden floors.
Please note the following points:
The machine must be level and se-
curely positioned.
To avoid vibrations during spinning,
the machine should not be installed
on soft floor coverings.
If installation must be on a wooden
joist floor, we recommend the use of
a plywood base at least 3 cm thick
and 60 x 60 cm wide. Ideally the
base should be large enough to
span several joists and should be an-
chored to the joists and not just the
floorboards.
As a general rule, we recommend
the installation of the machine (or
washer/dryer stack) in the corner of
a room where the stability of the floor
is at its greatest.
Installation
Lift the machine from its shipping pallet
and move it to the installation site.
Please note:
Do not lift the machine by the drum
door.
Ensure that the machine feet and the
floor are dry to prevent slippage dur-
ing the spin cycle.
Removing the shipping struts
Turn the left-side shipping strut 90°
counterclockwise.
Turn the right-side shipping strut 90°
clockwise.
