Warning: The spring in the valve assembly
is compressed and may fly out of the dis
penser. Depressing the plunger button
during dip removal will prevent this from
occurring.
TORSION ROD ASSEMBLY
The torsion rod assembly acts as a counter
balance when liquid detergent is in the dis
penser. This allows for easier opening and
closing of the washer lid.
REMOVAL
1. Lift the washer lid and remove the deter
gent reservoir.
2. Remove the center support from the tor
sion rod by rolling the support toward you.
Slide the left retainer toward the center of
the lid and remove from behind the lid
flange (Figure 4-15).
With the left retainer removed, grasp the
lid vertically and rotate the torsion rod in
a clockwise direction away from the right
hand plastic bushing in the top cover.
