Low Standpipe Installation

If the drain facility is lower than the cabinet top, a

siphon break kit, Part No. 562P3, must be installed in

the drain hose to prevent siphoning action and drain

hose MUST be cut to fit the washer installation. Refer

to Figure 8. Use one No. 25863 Hose Coupling to

splice hose. The No. 562P3 Siphon Break Kit and No.

25863 Hose Coupling are available as optional

equipment at extra cost through an authorized dealer

or parts distributor. Installation instructions are

supplied with the kit.
OPTIONAL: Raise the standpipe to the recommended

height of 36 inches (91.44 cm).

IMPORTANT: Drain receptacle must be capable of

handling a minimum of 1-1/2 inch (3.8 cm) outside

diameter drain hose.

Step 5: Position and Level the Washer

Position washer so it has sufficient clearance for

installation and servicing.
Place washer in position on a clean, dry, and

reasonably firm floor. Installing the washer on any

type of carpeting is not recommended.
Place rubber cups on all four leveling legs.
Place a level on the cabinet top and check if the

washer is level from side to side and front to back.

If washer is not level, tilt washer back to access the

front leveling legs. Loosen the locknuts and adjust legs

by screwing into or out of washer base.
Once adjusted, tilt the washer forward on front legs

and lower back down into position to set the rear self-

leveling legs.
Washer must not rock. After washer is at desired

height, tighten locknuts securely against bottom of

washer base. If these locknuts are not tight, washer

will not remain stationary during operation.
Improper installation or flexing of weak floor will

cause excessive vibration.
Do not slide washer across floor once the leveling legs

have been extended, as legs and base could become

damaged.

NOTE: For areas with uneven floors, a No. 566P3

Adjustable Rear Leg Extension Kit is available as

optional equipment at extra cost.

Verify that unit does not rock.
