Electrical connection
Electrical specifications
Single phase. 208/240 Volt, minimum 15 A
requirement.
ASKO washers and dryers are provided with a power
supply cord and are internally protected with two 15 A
fuses.
Single unit installation
Units are supplied with a power cord for the electrical
supply. Be certain this supply cord is connected to the
BLACK terminal block located on the upper back
panel inside the unit. Since the units are internally
protected, this cord can be connected to a 208/240 V
supply with a minimum of 15 A. The plug for
connection is not supplied with the unit. It may be
direct wired to the electrical supply or a plug obtained
locally.
Pair installation
You will need to provide a 30 A, 250 V, AWG 10/3
standard U.S. dryer cord available at most home
improvement or electricai supply stores.
An ASKO washer and dryer can be installed together
using the standard U.S. 250 V, 30 A dryer supply
provided in most homes. Follow these steps for
proper installation.
1 .Remove the top of the washer by removing the
three 25 Torx screws, located on the upper back of
the unit. Lift the top rear and slide it back, then iift off.
2. Disconnect the electricai cord supplied with the
washer from the terminal block and discard it.
3. Connect the electricai cord from the dryer to the
washer by threading it through the power cord
restraint on the washer which held the washer cord
and connecting the wires to the TOP of the BLACK
terminal block located on the upper back panel inside
the unit. Tighten power cord restraint.
Water supply connection

hoses supplied with the machine. Water
pressure must be in the range 15—146 PSI.
A tap must be fitted in the suppiy pipe for the
hose If a new supply pipe has been installed
for the machine, it should be flushed through
thoroughly in order to remove any particles of
dirt which might otherwise block the strainer in
the water iniet of the machine.
Drain outlet connection
The machine is supplied with the outiet hose
ready fitted. The hose should be hung at a
height of 15 3/4” - 35 1/2” above the floor:
the lower height is preferabie.
