SELECTING A LOCATION
Before you install the portable washer, select a location with the following
characteristics:
•
A hard level surface (if the surface is uneven, see Adjusting The Adjustable
Foot).
•
Away from direct sunlight. Direct sunlight may affect the acrylic coating,
plastic and electrical components.
•
Adequate ventilation.

Away from sources of heat such as coal or gas. Make sure that the washing
machine does not stand on its power cord. Ventilation openings must not be
obstructed by carpeting when the portable washer is installed on a carpeted
floor.

ADJUSTING THE ADJUSTABLE FOOT
If the floor is uneven adjust the adjustable foot (do not insert pieces of wood, or
any other objects under the feet).
Loosen the adjustable foot by turning the level adjustable knob with your hand

For portable applications, the washing machine comes equipped with four
north/south casters that can easily be installed to assist in the movement of the
machine to and from the sink. Lay the unit on its back. Install the casters into
