height of the standpipe
is 18 in/46 cm. The drain hose must be routed
through
the drain hose clip to the standpipe.
The standpipe
must be large enough to accept
the

of the drain hose. The drain hose is attached
at the factory.

For best performance,
your Washer
must be installed on a solidly
constructed
floor. Wood
floors
may need to be reinforced
to minimize
vibration
and/or unbalanced
load situations.
Carpeting
and soft tile surfaces
are contributing
factors
in vibration
may cause your washer
to move slightly
during the spin cycle.
Never install your washer
on a platform
or weakly supported
structure.
Location considerations
Do not install your washer
in areas where water may freeze, since your washer will always
maintain
some water in its water valve, pump, and hose areas. This can cause damage
the belts,
the pump,
hoses and other components.
