machine. The machine should not start with the door unlocked.

c. Close and lock the door and start a cycle. Attempt to open the

door while the cycle is in progress. The door should not open.

If the door lock and interlock are not functioning properly,

disconnect power and call a service technician.

End of the Day

Daily

4. Clean the machine’s top, front and side panels with mild

detergent. Thoroughly rinse and dry all surfaces after cleaning

them.

5. Leave the loading door open at the end of each day to allow

moisture to evaporate.

NOTE: Unload the machine promptly after each completed

cycle to prevent moisture buildup. Leave the loading door open

after each completed cycle to allow moisture to evaporate.

Weekly

1. For variable-speed models only, clean the AC drive box

filter(s) weekly or more frequently as needed:

NOTE: If the fan filter service indicator light is on, the fan filter

must be cleaned immediately to prevent possible damage. Press

the thermostat button to reset the indicator light.

NOTE: If filter indicator is ignored, repeated resets might

shorten life of drive. Clean filter regularly to avoid indication

prompt.

a. Open the top cover.

b. To remove the filter, grasp the filter handle and pull straight

up.

c. Wash the filter with warm water and allow it to air dry. As an

alternative, the filter may be vacuumed clean.

IMPORTANT: The control module cover and fan filter must be

in place for the fan to properly cool the AC drive. Failure to

observe this warning will void the warranty and could lead to

expensive AC drive repair.

2. Check the machine for leaks:

a. Start an unloaded cycle to fill the machine.

b. Verify that the door and door gasket do not leak.

c. Verify that the drain valve is operating and that the drain

system is free from obstruction. If water does not leak out

during the first wash segment, the drain valve is closed and

functioning properly.

F232178

Monthly

NOTE: Disconnect power to the machine at its source before

performing the monthly maintenance procedures.

1. Use the following procedures to determine if the V-belt(s) require

replacement or adjustment. Call a qualified service technician in

either case.

a. Check the V-belt(s) for uneven wear and frayed edges.

b. For groove-pulley drive systems, verify alignment by placing

a straightedge across both pulley faces. The straightedge

should make contact with the pulleys in four places.

c. For flat-pulley drive systems, verify the allowable distance of

the belt from the edge of the pulley. Refer to the

Operation/Maintenance Manual for pulley alignment

specifications.

d. For variable-speed models only, verify that the V-belts are

properly tensioned by applying a set force to the belt and

measuring the deflection to determine the belt tension. Belt

tension measurements should be taken as close to the center of the

belt span as possible. Refer to the Operation/Maintenance

Manual for belt tensioning specifications.

NOTE: Hoses and other natural rubber parts deteriorate after

extended use. Hoses may develop cracks, blisters or material wear

from the temperature and constant high pressure they are

subjected to.

2. Check all hoses for any visible signs of deterioration. Any hose

showing signs of deterioration listed above should be replaced

immediately.

NOTE: All hoses should be replaced every five years.

3. For 80-pound and 125-pound capacity models only, lubricate

the bearings and seals each month OR after every 200 hours of

operation.

a. Use a premium-grade lithium-based #2 grease. Never mix two

types of grease, such as petroleum and silicone.

b. Pump the grease gun slowly, permitting only the following

number of strokes:



2 strokes for bearing grease fittings



2 stroke for seal grease fittings

Do not pump the grease gun until grease comes out of the

bearing housing. This can result in over-lubrication and can

cause damage to the bearings and seals.

4. Remove the back panel and check the overflow hose and drain

hose for leaks.

Monthly

5. Unlock the top cover and check the supply dispenser hoses and

hose connections.

6. Use the following procedure to clean the inlet hose filter screens:

a. Turn the water off and, if necessary, allow the valve to cool.

b. Unscrew the inlet hose and remove the filter screen.

c. Clean the filter screen with soapy water and reinstall it.

Replace the filter screen if it is worn or damaged.

7. Tighten motor mounting bolt locknuts and bearing bolt locknuts.

Check for tightness of the motor spring and motor pulley. Also,

check to see that the pin is in place.

8. Clean the lint from the motor with compressed air.

9. Clean interior of machine, both basket and shell, by wiping with

a water-soaked sponge or cloth.
