NOTE: Use of the dispenser drawer or unit doors
as a handle in the transportation of the unit may
cause damage to the dispenser or doors.
Place unit in position on a solid, sturdy and level floor.
Installing the unit on any type of carpeting, soft tile, a
platform or other weakly supported structures is not
recommended.
Place a level on the cabinet top and check if the unit is
level from side to side and front to back.
NOTE: Level must rest on raised portion of top
panel. Refer to Figure 3.
If unit is not level, tilt unit to access the front and rear
leveling legs. For easier access to leveling legs, prop
up unit with a wooden block. Refer to Figure 4.
Loosen the locknuts and adjust legs by screwing into
or out of unit base.
Make sure that the unit does not rock. When unit is
level and does not rock, tighten locknuts securely
against bottom of unit base. If these locknuts are not
tight, unit will move out of position during operation.
Leveling legs can be adjusted from inside the unit with
a 7/8 inch deep well socket. All four legs must rest
firmly on the floor so the weight of the unit is evenly
distributed. The unit must not rock and must be level
from side-to-side and front-to-back.
NOTE: Do not slide unit across floor once the
leveling legs have been extended. Legs and base
could become damaged.
Place rubber feet (supplied in accessories bag) on all
four leveling legs. Refer to Figure 3.
Verify that unit does not rock.

Step 3: Connect Fill Hoses
Water Supply
Water supply faucets must fit standard 3/4 inch
(19.1 mm) female garden hose couplings. DO NOT
USE SLIP-ON OR CLAMP-ON CONNECTIONS.
Water supply faucets should be readily accessible to
permit turning them off when washer is not being
used.
Recommended cold water temperature is 60o to
80oFahrenheit (16oto 27oCelsius). Recommended
maximum hot water temperature is 125° Fahrenheit
(51oCelsius). Warm water is a mixture of hot and cold
water. Warm water temperature is dependent upon
water temperature and pressure of both the hot and
cold water supply lines.
Water pressure must be a minimum of 20 to a
maximum of 120 pounds per square inch (138 to
827 kPa) static pressure measured at the faucet.
NOTE: Water pressure under 20 pounds per
square inch (138 kPa) will cause an extended fill
time in the washer and may not properly flush out
the detergent dispenser.
Turn on the water faucets and flush the lines for
approximately two minutes to remove any foreign
material that could clog the screens in the water
mixing valve.
NOTE: When installing in newly constructed or
renovated buildings, it is very important to flush
the lines since build-up may have occurred during
construction.
Connecting Hoses
Remove the two plain rubber washers and two filter
screens from the accessories bag. Install them into
each end of the fill hoses as shown in Figure 5. The
screen must be facing outward.
Screw hose couplings with the filter screens onto the
water faucets until they are finger-tight. Then, using a
pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn.
Screw hose couplings from other end of hoses onto the
water mixing valve until they are finger-tight. Then,
using a pliers, screw approximately 1/4 turn. Refer to
Figure 6.
IMPORTANT: Do not cross thread or overtighten
couplings. This will cause them to leak.
Turn water on and check for leaks. If leaks are found,
turn off the water, unscrew hoses and reinstall them
until there are no leaks.
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply whenever
there will be an extended period of non-use.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas
may be produced in a hot water system
that has not been used for two weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If
the hot water system has not been used
for such a period and before using the
washer, turn on all hot water faucets and
let the water flow from each for several
minutes. This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. The gas is
flammable. Do not smoke or use an open
flame during this time.
W029
WARNING
To prevent personal injury, avoid contact
with inlet water temperatures higher than
125°Fahrenheit (51°Celsius) and hot
surfaces.

IMPORTANT: Hoses and other natural rubber
parts deteriorate after extended use. Hoses may
develop cracks, blisters or material wear from the
temperature and constant high pressure they are
subject to.
All hoses should be checked on a monthly basis for
any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing
the signs of deterioration listed above should be
replaced immediately. All hoses should be replaced
every five years.
IMPORTANT: Turn off water supply faucets after
check-out and demonstration. Owner should turn
off water supply whenever there will be an
extended period of non-use.
NOTE: Longer fill hoses are available (as optional
equipment at extra cost) if the hoses supplied with
the washer are not long enough for the installation.
Order hoses as follows:
No. 20617 Fill Hose (8 feet) (2.44 m)
No. 20618 Fill Hose (10 feet) (3.05 m)
Risers
Risers (or air cushions) may have to be installed if the
pipes knock or pound when flow of water stops. The
risers are more efficient when installed as close as
possible to the water supply faucets (refer to Figure 7).

Step 4: Connect Drain Hose to Drain
Receptacle
Remove the drain hose from its shipping position on
the rear of the washer by unhooking the hose from the
retainer clamp and by removing the shipping tape.
Install the drain hose into the drain receptacle
(standpipe, wall or laundry tub) following the
instructions below.
IMPORTANT: Drain receptacle must be capable of
handling a minimum of 1-1/4 inch (32 cm) outside
diameter drain hose.
Standpipe Installation:
Place the drain hose into the standpipe.
Remove the beaded strap from accessories bag and
place around standpipe and drain hose and tighten
strap to hold hose to standpipe. Refer to Figure 8. This
will prevent the drain hose from dislodging from drain
receptacle during use.
Wall Installation:
For installations of this type, the drain hose MUST be
secured to one of the fill hoses using the beaded strap
from accessories bag. Refer to Figure 9.
NOTE: End of drain hose must not be below 24 in.
(61 cm).
Laundry Tub Installation:
For this type of installation, the drain hose MUST be
secured to the stationary tub to prevent hose from
dislodging during use. Refer to Figure 10. Use the
beaded strap (supplied in accessories bag) to secure
hose.

Step 5: (Gas Dryer Only) Connect Gas
Supply Pipe
1. Make certain your dryer is equipped for use with
the type of gas in your laundry room. Dryer is
equipped at the factory for Natural Gas with a
3/8 inch NPT gas connection.
NOTE: The gas service to a gas dryer must
conform with the local codes and ordinances, or in
the absence of local codes and ordinances, with the
latest edition of the National Fuel Gas Code ANSI
Z223.1/NFPA 54 or the CAN/CSA-B149.1 Natural
Gas and Propane Installation Code.
Natural Gas, 1000 Btu/ft3(37.3 MJ/m3) service must
be supplied at minimum 5.0 inch water column
pressure to maximum 10.5 inch water column
pressure.
For proper operation at altitudes above 3000 feet
(915 m) the natural gas valve spud orifice size must be
reduced to ensure complete combustion. Refer to
Table 1.
2. Remove the shipping cap from the gas
connection at the rear of the dryer. Make sure you
do not damage the pipe threads when removing
the cap.
3. Connect to gas supply pipe.
NOTE: When connecting to a gas line, an
equipment shut-off valve must be installed within
6 feet (1.8 m) of the dryer. An 1/8 in. NPT pipe plug
must be installed as shown for checking inlet
pressure. Refer to Figure 11.
To reduce the risk of gas leaks, fire or
explosion:
• The dryer must be connected to the type
of gas as shown on nameplate located in
the door recess.
• Use a new flexible stainless steel
connector.
• Use pipe joint compound insoluble in L.P.
(Liquefied Petroleum) Gas, or Teflon tape,
on all pipe threads.
• Purge air and sediment from gas supply
line before connecting it to the dryer.
Before tightening the connection, purge
remaining air from gas line to dryer until
odor of gas is detected. This step is
required to prevent gas valve
contamination.
• Do not use an open flame to check for gas
leaks. Use a non-corrosive leak detection
fluid.
• Any disassembly requiring the use of
tools must be performed by a suitably
qualified service person.
