The machine must be installed on a sound and
firm surface and must not be touching walls or
furniture. 

Levelling the machine

Adjust the feet to level the machine. Make sure
the machine is standing on all four feet. Accurate
levelling prevents vibration, noise and displacement
of the machine during operation. (Fig. 1). 

Some vibration is normal and unavoidable when
the machine is spinning the load, especially if
mounted on a wooden floor.

Sprung wooden floors are particularly susceptible
to vibration. For advice, consult a builder. If possible,
always place the machine on a solid floor.

When the appliance location is on carpet
floors, attention must be paid so as to
ensure that there is no obstruction to
the bottom vents.

Water inlet

Connect the inlet hose to a tap with a 3/4" pipe
thread (Fig. 2).

The inlet hose must not be joined onto any form 
of extension hose. If it is too short, the entire hose
must be replaced with a longer high-pressure hose,
specially designed for the purpose. These are
available from your local Service Force Centre.

The machine end of this hose can be turned in
any direction. Loosen the retaining nut, turn the
hose, then retighten the nut (Fig. 3).

Check that the nut is tightend before
the machine is moved into position.

Use only the inlet hose supplied with
the machine, do not reuse the old inlet
hose.
