• MOVING YOUR MACHINE

• Mounting it on castors

If your machine is equipped with removable castors, you will be able to

move it quite easily.

To mount it on castors, swivel the lever on the bottom of the machine from

the right to the far left (Diagram D9).

Important:

The machine must not rest on the «front» castors while it is

operating: remember to return the lever to its initial position.

• CONNECTING TO THE COLD WATER

SUPPLY

Connect the supply hose (Diagram D10):

— At one end to the connection on the back of the machine

— On the other end to a tap fitted with a threaded end 20mm dia. x 27

(3/4 BSP).

If you use a self-piercing tap, the useful aperture must have a minimum

diameter of 6mm.

Water supply:

- Minimum water pressure: 0.1 MPa or 1 bar

- Maximum water pressure: 1 MPa or 10 bars

• Replacing a water supply hose

When replacing the hose, ensure that the hose is tightly fastened and that

there is a seal at both ends.

• DRAINING AWAY THE WASTE WATER

Fit the hose bracket provided inside your machine to the end of the drain

hose and then connect the hose (Diagram D11):

— Either, temporarily, over a sink or a bathtub.

— Or permanently to a ventilated U-bend.

If your installation does not have a ventilated U-bend, check that the

connection is not sealed. In fact, to avoid any waste water flowing back

into the machine, you are strongly recommended to leave an air gap

between the machine’s drain hose and the drainpipe.

In any case, the drain hose bracket must be placed at a height of 65 to

90cm higher than the base of the machine.

Important:

Ensure that the drain hose is tied firmly in place with cord to

avoid the bracket coming loose during draining and causing a flood.

For correct draining of the waste water, make sure that the drain hose

is as straight as possible. In fact, the more bends the less effective

the drain pump.

The waste water can be drained away to the ground provided that the

drain hose passes through a point 65 to 90cm higher than the base of

the machine (Diagram D12).

• REMOVING THE TRANSPORT CLAMPS

Important:

Before using the machine in any way, you must first perform

the following operations.

These comprise removing all the components designed to immobilise the

drum in your machine during transport.
These so-called «releasing» operations are necessary for your

machine to operate correctly and to conform to the prevailing safety

standards.

If they are not carried out completely, this could cause severe

damage to your machine while it is operating.
— Remove the washing machine from its plinth

(check that the wedge

supporting the motor is not still inserted in the machine) (Diagram

D3)

— Remove the 4 screws with a screwdriver (Diagram D4)

— Remove the cross clamp by removing the 2 screws (Diagram D5)

using a 10 or 13mm spanner (depending on the model).

(Ensure that you

remove the two plastic braces fixed on the cross clamp at the same

time as the clamp itself).

— Replace the screws in their initial positions.

Warning:

You must block off the two holes using the hole covers

provided (supplied in the accessories bag) (Diagram D6)

— Remove the drum-tank assembly locking wedge (Diagram D7).

To do this:

— Lift the lid on the machine

— Remove wedge ;

— Remove wedge ;

— Release the drum doors, locked in the lower position, by pressing down

on both eaves simultaneously.

Warning:

Remove the pipe support collars You must block off the

holes revealed with the hole covers supplied in the accessories

bag (Diagram D8).

Advice:

We would recommend that you keep all the locking components

since these must be refitted if you must subsequently transport your

machine again.

Information:

Your machine has been scrupulously checked before it left the

factory. You may therefore notice a little water still remaining in the

tank or the products box.
