Maintenance and adjustments
Replacement of door rubber
1. Open the door. Remove the door glass with rubber from the door frame by pushing it towards the drum.
Do it carefully, do not damage the glass.
2. Remove the gasket from the glass.
3. Place a new rubber gasket with wider groove on the glass with the edge up.
4. Moisten the seal groove for door with soap water. Place a smooth cord in the groove all around.
Tighten up the margin by cord and fit the unit to the door opening. Hold one end of the cord firmly on the
door. Pull the other cord end towards the center of the glass for the rubber edge properly fit in.
Important note: After the door seal replacement it can happen that the door seal pressure is too high on the
door lock side as well as on the hinge side. If this happens, follow the service instructions mentioned above.
Adjusting of out of balance switch
The out of balance switch is an important component which must - if correctly adjusted - stop the machine
when excessive movement and shaking occur due to an unbalance caused by improper distribution of linen
in the washing drum. The adjustment of the vibration switch has ALWAYS to be executed at the installation
of the washer. It is recommended that once a year a qualified worker verifies the vibration switch petting.
ATTENTION!
DO NOT USE THE MACHINE IF THIS FUNCTION DOESN’T WORK PROPERLY!
THIS FUNCTIONAL TEST CAN ONLY BE EXECUTED BY A QUALIFIED TECHNICIAN WITH PROPER
AUTHORIZATION.
Belt replacement and adjusting tension
WARNING!
MAKE SURE THE MACHINE IS DISCONNECTED FROM POWER SUPPLY BY USE AND SECURE
THE DISCONNECTING DEVICE.
On a new machine and after a belt replacement, make an inspection of the belt tightness:
1. After first 24 hrs of operation
2. After first 80 hrs of operation
3. Every 6 months or every 1000 operation hours - which ever comes first.
The belts are accessible from the rear of the machine. If the belts are too tight or too loose, the durability
will be shortened. If too loose they can be slipping on the pulley and can cause a noisy operation and generate
excessive wear with fast breaking as consequence. In such cases correcting the belts tension is necessary.
The belt tension can be verified with an approximate method.
ATTENTION!
TO CHANGE THE BELTS: NEVER USE A CROWBAR, SCREW DRIVER OR ALIKE TO TAKE OFF THE
BELTS OVER THE PULLEY!
Water filters
Machines are equipped with filters on water inlets. It is necessary to clean up the filters occasionally to avoid
a prolongation of filling the machine with water. Intervals of cleaning depend on the quality of the water,
for example foreign particles in the water line.
WARNING!
BEFORE YOU START CLEANING THE WATER FILTERS, CHECK IF ALL WATER INLET TO THE
MACHINE IS CLOSED.
