Safe Operating Environment
Safe operation requires an appropriate operating
environment for both the operator and the machine. If
questions regarding safety arise, contact the
manufacturer immediately.
Environmental Conditions
•Ambient Temperature. Water in the machine will
freeze at temperatures of 32°F (0°C) or below.
Temperatures above 120°F (50°C) will result in
more frequent motor overheating and, in some
cases, malfunction or premature damage to solid
state devices that are used in some models.
Special cooling devices may be necessary.
Water pressure switches are affected by increases
and decreases in temperature. Every 25°F (10°C)
change in temperature will have a 1% effect on
the water level.
•Humidity. Relative humidity above 90% may
cause the machine’s electronics or motors to
malfunction or may trip the ground fault
interrupter. Corrosion problems may occur on
some metal components in the machine.
If the relative humidity is below 30%, belts and
rubber hoses may eventually develop dry rot.
This condition can result in hose leaks, which
may cause safety hazards external to the machine
in conjunction with adjacent electrical
equipment.
•Ventilation. The need for make-up air openings
for such laundry room accessories as dryers,
ironers, water heaters, etc., must be evaluated
periodically. Louvers, screens, or other
separating devices may reduce the available air
opening significantly.
•Radio Frequency Emissions. A filter is available
for machines in installations where floor space is
shared with equipment sensitive to radio
frequency emissions.
•Elevation. If the machine is to be operated at
elevations of over 3280 feet (1000 m) above sea
level, pay special attention to water levels and
electronic settings (particularly temperature) or
desired results may not be achieved.
•Chemicals. Keep stainless steel surfaces free of
chemical residues.
NEVER insert hands or objects into
basket until it has completely stopped.
Doing so could result in serious injury.
SW012
WARNING
Never operate the machine with a
bypassed or disconnected balance
system. Operating the machine with
severe out-of-balance loads could result
in personal injury and serious equipment
damage. SW039

•Water Damage. Do not spray the machine with
water. Short circuiting and serious damage may
result. Repair immediately all seepage due to
worn or damaged gaskets, etc.
Machine Location
•Foundation. The concrete floor must be of
sufficient strength and thickness to handle the
floor loads generated by the high extract speeds
of the machine. Refer to Installation manual.
•Service/Maintenance Space. Provide sufficient
space to allow comfortable performance of
service procedures and routine preventive
maintenance.
Consult installation instructions for specific details.
Input and Output Services
•Water Pressure. Best performance will be
realized if water is provided at a pressure of
30 – 80 psi (2.0 – 5.4 bar). Although the machine
will function properly at lower pressure,
increased fill times will occur. Water pressure
higher than 100 psi (6.7 bar) may result in
damage to machine plumbing. Component
failure(s) and personal injury could result.
•Steam Heat (Optional) Pressure. Best
performance will be realized if steam is provided
at a pressure of 30 – 80 psi (2.0 – 5.4 bar). Steam
pressure higher than 125 psi (8.5 bar) may result
in damage to steam components and may cause
personal injury.
For machines equipped with optional steam heat,
install piping in accordance with approved
commercial steam practices. Failure to install the
supplied steam filter may void the warranty.
•Drainage System. Provide drain lines or troughs
large enough to accommodate the total number of
gallons that could be dumped if all machines on
the site drained at the same time from the highest
attainable level. If troughs are used, they should
be covered to support light foot traffic.
•Power. For personal safety and for proper
operation, the machine must be grounded in
accordance with state and local codes. The
ground connection must be to a proven earth
ground, not to conduit or water pipes. Do not use
fuses in place of the circuit breaker. An easy-
access cutoff switch should also be provided.
Always disconnect power and water supplies before a
service technician performs any service procedure.
Where applicable, steam and/or compressed air
supplies should also be disconnected before service is
performed.
Do not place volatile or flammable fluids
in any machine. Do not clean the machine
with volatile or flammable fluids such as
acetone, lacquer thinners, enamel
reducers, carbon tetrachloride, gasoline,
benzene, naptha, etc. Doing so could
result in serious personal injury and/or
damage to the machine. SW002
DANGER
Replace all panels that are removed to
perform service and maintenance
procedures. Do not operate the machine
with missing guards or with broken or
missing parts. Do not bypass any safety
devices. SW019
CAUTION
Ensure that a ground wire from a proven
earth ground is connected to the ground
lug near the input power block on this
machine. Without proper grounding,
personal injury from electric shock could
occur and machine malfunctions may be
evident. SW008

AC Inverter Drive
Machines equipped with the AC inverter drive require
special attention with regard to the operating
environment.
•An especially dusty or linty environment will
require more frequent cleaning of the AC inverter
drive cooling fan filter and of the AC inverter
drive itself.
•Power line fluctuations from sources such as
uninterruptible power supplies (UPS) can
adversely affect machines equipped with the AC
inverter drive. Proper suppression devices should
be utilized on the incoming power to the machine
to avoid problems.
•A clean power supply free from voltage spikes
and surges is absolutely essential for machines
equipped with the AC inverter drive. Nonlinear
inconsistencies (peaks and valleys) in the power
supply can cause the AC inverter drive to
generate nuisance errors.
•Sufficient space to perform service procedures
and routine preventive maintenance is especially
important for machines equipped with the AC
inverter drive.
This manual is designed as a guide to operating and
maintaining the Pocket Hardmount washer-extractor
equipped with the AC inverter drive.

Preliminary Information
About the Control
The UniLinc control on the washer-extractor is an
advanced, graphical, programmable computer that lets
the owner control most machine features by
interacting with the control.
UniLinc allows the owner to program custom cycles,
run diagnostic cycles and retrieve audit, error and
bearing information.
Washer-extractors shipped from the factory have
default cycles and wash temperature settings built in.
The owner can change the default cycle, or any cycle.
IMPORTANT: It is extremely important that the
washer-extractor has a positive ground and that all
mechanical and electrical connections are made
before applying power to or operating the washer-
extractor.
Power Failure Recovery
If a cycle is in progress when the power fails, and if
the power outage lasts three or more seconds, the cycle
is lost and cannot be resumed when power recovers. If
the power outage lasts less than three seconds, the
control will resume the cycle when the power
recovers.
Communications
The control has the ability to communicate with a
PDA or a laptop with an IrDA device running the
UniLinc software. Devices such as PDAs and laptops
that are IrDA capable (able to transmit information to
machine) that have been tested and approved for use
with the UniLinc software can be used as a tool for
managing the machine.
Audit Information
The control collects and stores audit information,
which can be accessed with a PDA. Refer to the

Operation Modes
General Modes of Operation
In each mode of operation, the user may press keypads
or communicate with the control to change the
displayed menu.
Power-up Mode
The control enters this mode at power-up. After the
control completes operation in the Power-up Mode it
will enter Idle Mode. The display is blank during
Power-up Mode.
Idle Mode
Control is ready for operation in Idle Mode. Control
can display different menus depending on user input
(keypad press, opening or closing the loading door, or
PDA communication). If there is no user input for one
minute, control will turn off the LCD backlight.
Control will light when there is user input. If there is
no user input for 10 minutes, display will go blank.
If control is in Idle Mode, Cycle Menu is displayed,
loading door closed, and the keypad is pressed,
control will enter Run Mode.
Run Mode
Control enters Run Mode during a cycle. Display
shows machine cycle time remaining, the colon
flashing one second on/one second off indicating that
the cycle time is counting down, and the display will
indicate the current cycle step. Loading door is closed
and locked during Run Mode. Press keypad to
end cycle and enter Stop Mode. Press keypad to
Rapid Advance to the next cycle step (if the Rapid
Advance feature is enabled. The Rapid Advance
feature is enabled by default.) Control enters Error
Mode if loading door unlocks or opens.
Stop Mode
If keypad is pressed before cycle ends, control
enters Stop Mode and performs the following steps:
•Displays a hourglass.
•Turns off all outputs.
•Verifies water is drained.
•Verifies motor is stopped by either rotation
sensor or time.
•The control will display the unlock door screen.
The user must unlock and open the door to return
to the Cycle Menu.
Error Mode
This mode will be entered to display all alarms and
machine errors.
Delayed Start Countdown Mode
Delayed Start Countdown Menu is entered after
delayed start is activated. The display will show the
hours and minutes remaining until the machine will
automatically start.
The Delayed Start Final Countdown Menu is entered
during the last sixty seconds before the control is
automatically started. The keypad will start the
selected cycle immediately. Press to return to the
Cycle Menu.

Machine Cycle Definition and Operation
There are 41 machine cycles which can be selected
and run. Machine cycles can be modified or made
“unavailable” by manually editing them in Modify
Cycle Menu or by using the PDA to download a
modified machine cycle into the control. Machine
cycles cannot be deleted, but can be made
“unavailable” so that they are not visible from the
Cycle Menu. New machine cycles cannot be created,
but existing machine cycles that have been edited to be
“unavailable” may be re-edited to be available again.
Machine Cycle Operation
When a cycle is run, the control runs the cycle
segment by segment and step by step in a sequence.
The first segment can be programmed to “Off”,
“Prewash”, “Wash” or “Rinse”. If the segment is
programmed to “Off”, control skips to the next
segment. If the segment is not programmed to “Off”,
the first segment step (Reuse Fill step) is examined to
see if it is programmed on. If the segment step is
programmed on, it is executed and the next step
follows until the segment is complete. Any segment
steps programmed to “Off” are skipped.
At the start of a machine cycle, the control displays a
Total Remaining Cycle time. This time is taken from
the audit data for this cycle where there is stored an
average time elapsed for the last three of these cycles
that had been completed. The Total Remaining Cycle
Time begins to count down as soon as the cycle is
started. Since there will be differences between the
average elapsed cycle time and the actual elapsed
cycle time, the Total Remaining Cycle Time displayed
is corrected at the start of the cycle’s final enabled step
that has programmed time duration.
Rotation Sensor Equipped
Machines
On machines equipped with rotation sensors and a
rotation sensor error has not occurred, the control
monitors the rotation sensor. The control will never
send a new motor output which would reverse the
motor direction or force the motor to run at a lower
speed if the rotation sensor input indicates that the
machine basket is rotating. The control will wait for
the rotation to stop before sending the motor
command.
Delayed Start Feature
The user can select a machine cycle to run at a later
time. Refer to Delayed Start Menu Section.
Jog Feature UW150 Only
The user can use Jog Feature from the Cycle Menu in
Idle Mode, while the machine door is open. When the
control detects that the jog buttons are pressed, the
control will wake up and start a five second sound,
turn the beeper on and off for five seconds and then the
motor will turn in reverse direction at a reduced speed.
Cycle Menu
The Cycle Menu is the first menu displayed by the
control at power-up. The Cycle Menu allows the user
to select one of the 41 machine cycles. Machine cycles
that are turned off will not be displayed in the Cycle
Menu. As a default, the last run cycle will be displayed
in the center, highlighted position. The factory default
cycle will be Cycle01.
