A proper foundation is an absolute
necessity when installing a fixed mount
washer extractor. Do not neglect details
when doing foundation work. These details
will ensure a stable installation, reducing the
possibility of excess vibration at high
speeds.

The machine must be anchored to a smooth
level surface so that the entire base of the
machine is supported and rests on the
mounting surface. Note! Do not support the
machine at only four points.

A concrete base designed to elevate the
washer-extractor to a more comfortable
working height may be used. Use care
when designing a base, as the forces
generated during extract are extreme. The
base must be adequately tied into existing
floor.

Do not attempt to install this machine on
wooden flooring of any kind, above ground
level, or over basements. Installation must
be slab on grade or equal.

Ensure that the machine is installed on a

level floor of sufficient strength and that the
recommended clearances for inspection and

maintenance are
provided. Never allow the
inspection and
maintenance space to be
blocked
