User-Maintenance Instructions
Cold Weather Care
If the washer is delivered on a cold day (below
freezing), or is stored in an unheated room or area
during the cold months, do not attempt to operate the
washer until it has had a chance to warm up.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the
control panel. Some cleaning products may harm the
finish on the control panel. Wipe the panel dry after
cleaning.
Wipe the washer cabinet as needed. If detergent,
bleach or other washing products are spilled on the
cabinet, wipe immediately. Some products will cause
permanent damage if spilled on the cabinet.
Do not use scouring pads or abrasive cleansers.
The washtub will need no particular care though it
may need rinsing or wiping after some unusual loads
have been washed. This also may be necessary if too
little detergent has been used.
Leave the lid open to allow the inside of the washer to
dry out after use. This helps prevent musty odors from
developing.
The agitator should not be removed except for service.
The washtub is designed to be self cleaning.
Replacing Hoses
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 subjected 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.
Filter Screens
Check the filter screens in the fill hoses for debris or
damage annually. Clean or replace them if necessary.
If the washer is filling with water slower than normal,
check the filter screens. Clean or replace them if
necessary.
Order filter screen Part No. F270300 from the nearest
authorized parts distributor.
Reinstallation of Shipping Materials
Shipping Brace
The shipping brace in the lid opening should be saved
and reinstalled whenever the washer is moved. To
reinstall the brace, open the washer lid and place the
brace over the washer agitator, placing the back of the
brace into the lid opening first.
Shipping Plug
The plastic shipping plug should be saved and
reinstalled any time the washer is moved. The plug fits
into two openings: The base opening and the shipping
plug opening on the bottom of the movable pivot
dome. The plug MUST be inserted into both openings
to prevent damage to the washer. In order to
accomplish this, the shipping plug opening must be
directly lined up with the base opening. Refer to
Figure 24.
Figure 24
Motor Overload Protector
The internal overload protector will stop the motor
automatically in the event of an overload.
The overload protector will reset itself in two or three
minutes and the motor will restart automatically.
If the overload protector stops motor again, remove
the washer from use and call the service person to
correct the problem.
