Lubrication
All moving parts are sealed in a permanent supply of
lubricant or are equipped with oilless bearings.
Additional lubrication will not be necessary.
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 it
until the washer has had a chance to warm up.
Vacations and Extended Non-Use
IMPORTANT: To avoid possible property damage
due to flooding, turn off the water supply to the
washer whenever there will be an extended period
of non-use.
Care of Your Washer
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the
control panel. Some cleaning product sprays may
harm the finish on the control panel or damage the
interior of the hood.
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 wash drum and window will need no particular
care although they may need rinsing or wiping after an
unusual load has been washed. Outside of door
window can be cleaned with household window
cleaner.
Cleaning Glass Sealing Area
In order to assure that the door properly seals against
water leaks, the following surfaces should be wiped
off periodically:
● The outside perimeter of the door glass where the
seal contacts the glass.
● The front surface of the door seal lip.
Usually a mild soap solution will work. If there is an
extreme build-up of minerals from a hard water
supply, the surfaces may need to be cleaned with a
lime removal chemical.
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 yearly basis for any
visible signs of deterioration. Any hose showing the
signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced
immediately.
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 from the nearest authorized parts
distributor.
Care of Your Dryer
Clean the lint filter before drying each load. The lint
filter may be washed if needed. Annually remove lint
filter and screw to vacuum the duct under it.
Ordinarily, the dryer cylinder will need no care.
Wipe the dryer 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.
Use only a damp or sudsy cloth for cleaning the
control panel. Some spray prewash products may harm
the finish on the control panel.
NOTE: The wiring diagram is located inside the
control panel.
To reduce the risk of an electric shock,
serious injury or death, disconnect the
electrical service to the dryer before
cleaning the interior.
