All models
There are 6 tubing connectors in back of the washer. One 

connector is larger in diameter than the others. The larger 

diameter connector should be used for the pump requiring 

chemical mixing with water prior to entering the washer. If 

additional chemicals are needed, contact the manufacturer. 

Tubing connectors are sealed at the factory and must be drilled 

out before use.
NOTES:

 

■

Only drill out connectors that will be used. Any unused  

open connectors must be sealed to avoid reflux during  

the fill cycle.

 

■

Holes must be drilled. Attempting to open holes with a punch 

may damage the washer.

1.     Drill out connectors that will be used. Use a drill bit slightly 

smaller than the interior diameter of the hole. Small tubes are 

11/32" and larger tube is 13/32". Remove all debris from the 

hole. See illustration.

2.      Attach flexible hoses rated for commercial laundry chemicals 

to the connectors. (Secure hoses with hose clamps.)

PD models only
These additional steps are necessary to connect tubing 

connectors:
3.      Open top cover. Locate  

connectors that were drilled.  

Attach tightly fitting flexible  

hoses rated for commercial  

laundry chemicals onto those  

connectors on the inside of the  

washer, long enough to reach  

the dispenser box connectors.  

Secure each hose with  

a hose clamp.

4.     Be sure that dispenser connectors fit the hoses. Drill out 

connectors on the dispenser box with a drill bit slightly 

smaller than the interior diameter of the hole. Small tubes  

are 11/32" and larger tube is 13/32". Remove all debris  

from the hole.

5.      Attach flexible hoses rated for commercial laundry chemicals 

to the connectors. Secure the hoses with a hose clamp.

  1.  Turn off power at fuse box or breaker box.
  2.  Be sure that the shipping brackets are removed. 
  3.  Open door and be sure that the washer drum is empty.
  4.  Verify that washer is level and does not rock from  

 side-to-side.
  5.  Check electrical connection and ground. 
  6.  Turn on water.
  7.   Adjust vibration switch. See “Vibration Switch Adjustment”  

in Maintenance.

  8.  Check drain connection and clearance.
  9.  Turn power on at circuit breaker.
10.  

Turn the washer on. Begin a wash cycle. Watch the drum 

during the extraction cycle. The drum should rotate 

clockwise as observed from the front of the washer.

11.  Make sure all panels are installed.
IMPORTANT: If the drum rotates counter-clockwise in extract 

mode, turn off the power supply at the circuit breaker and reverse 

the polarity of any 2 of the supply wires from the frequency 

inverter to the motor, or on the motor itself. This should only be 

performed by qualified personnel.
11.    Perform vibration switch function test (see page 11 “Vibration 

Switch Adjustment and Function Test”).

12.    Begin wash cycle again. Activate the emergency stop switch. 

All electrical power to the washer should be deactivated.

The following checks and adjustments should be performed 

during the break-in period as follows:
24 operation hours
