Remove Transport System
IMPORTANT:
Position the washer so that the rear of the washer
is within approximately 3 ft (90 cm) of its final location.
There are 4 bolts in the rear panel of the washer that support the
suspension system during transportation. These bolts also retain
the power cord inside the washer until the bolts are removed.
1.
Using a 13 mm wrench, loosen each of the bolts.
2.
Once the bolt is loose, move it to the center of the hole and
completely pull out the bolt, including the plastic spacer
covering the bolt.
3.
Once all 4 bolts are removed, discard bolt and spacers. Then
pull the power cord through the opening of the rear panel and
close the hole with the attached cap.
4.
Close the bolt holes with the 4 transport bolt hole plugs.
NOTE:
If the washer is to be transported at a later date, call your
local service center. To avoid suspension and structural damage
to your washer, it must be properly set up for relocation by a
certified technician.
