Prepare Washer

Step 1

• Remove the carton by cutting only marked areas of the carton. CAUTION: Hoses are connected to the

washer.

NOTE: If the washer is moved without the carton in place, be sure to keep sharp
edges from damaging the washer cabinet or attached hoses.

• Lift the carton up and clear of the washer. Carefully remove any packaging materi-

als from the outside of the washer. NOTE: Retain the corner posts for later use.

• Untape and raise the washer lid, remove the items shipped in the spin basket. Save the

literature for future reference. Close and tape lid.

Step 2

With the lid taped shut, lay corner posts on the floor, as shown. Use one corner
post to support the top, and three posts for the bottom. Gently tip the washer on
its back, laying it across the corner posts.

Step 3

Remove the hex head screw at the
rear of the shipping base. Pull plastic
base away from rear feet, and pull
downward to disengage from front
feet. Recycle or discard the plastic
base. Return washer to upright posi-
tion. Untape the washer lid.
