If installing under a counter: Carefully move the washer in front of it's final location. Adjust the rear leveling legs to the required height and level the washer across the back of the washer. Tighten the leveling locking nuts up against the bottom of the washer base with the wrench. Adjust the front leveling legs to level the washer in respect to the rear leveling legs. Gently lift up on the front of the washer and slide back into the recess. With the washer in its final position, place a level along the top edge of the washer. (no rocking of the washer should exist). Adjust the front leveling legs up or down to ensure the washer is resting solid. Turn the lock nuts on each leg up towards the base of the washer and snug with a wrench. NOTE: Keep the leg extension at a minimum to prevent excessive vibration. The farther out the legs are extended the more the washer will vibrate and possibly walk. FINAL INSTALLATION CHECKLIST o Instruction and Installation Kit have been removed from tub. o Shipping bolts and spacers have been removed. o Washer is plugged into electrical outlet and is properly grounded. o Water hoses are connected to the faucets with inlet screens and washers. o Water is turned on and checked for leaks at faucet and water valve connections on back of washer. o Drain hose is properly located into drain facility and is not collapsed or damaged. o Washer has been properly leveled. All legs should be firmly on the floor and leveling leg lock nuts tightened up against the bottom of the washer base frame. o Washer fills properly on all temperature selections. o Test for proper operation by running the washer through a complete cycle. COLD WEATHER STORAGE The following precautions should be taken if a washer is to be stored, after use, where it would be subject to freezing conditions. 1. Turn off the water supply, then remove the inlet hoses from the facets. 2. Place the end of the inlet hoses into a bucket or container. Select a fill cycle and energize the water valve by selecting a warm water setting. A few seconds of fill is sufficient to empty the inlet hoses. 3. Disconnect from electrical supply. 4. Lower the drain hose to floor level and tilt washer backwards to remove water from the drain hose and pump. 8
