UNPACkING AND REMOVING SHIPPING BOLTS
When removing the washer from the carton base,
be sure to remove the foam tub support in the
middle of the carton base.
If you must lay the washer down to remove the
base packaging materials, always lay it carefully
on its side. Do NOT lay the washer on its front or
back.
IMPORTANT: To prevent internal damage during
transport, the washer is equipped with 4 shipping
bolts and plastic retainers. These bolts and
retainers MUST be removed before operating the
washer.
• Failure to remove shipping bolts and retainers
may cause severe vibration and noise, which can
lead to permanent damage to the washer. The
cord is secured to the back of the washer with
a shipping bolt to help prevent operation with
shipping bolts in place.
