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.

DETERGENT DISPENSING
