4.2 Mechanical installation
To ensure steadiness of the machine it is important to fasten the machine to the foundation.
Level the machine by using stainless or galvanized steel washers between the machine and the floor. The washers
must be of a size to cover the support surface. Fit the washers and self-locking nuts supplied with the machine and
tighten well. To tighten the nuts it is recommended to use a rachet wrench, especially in the right rear corner.
It is of the upmost importance that the machine is placed in level, from side to side as well as front to rear. If the
machine is not properly levelled, it may result in out-of-balance without a real out of balance in the drum.

After the machine has been in use for a while, check and re-tighten the nuts if necessary.
Floor
In this type of machine, the drum is attached directly to the frame. As a result the deck under the machine must be
stable enough to absorb the dynamic forces generated during spin cycles.
The combination deck and foundation must be able to withstand the loads indicated in the technical data table.
Some marine installations have very thin decks. Special attention to be taken. Reinforcing deck plus increased size
of foundation may be necessary.
