latest edition, or Canadian Electrical Code, CSA C22.1.

Direct Wire Installation:

Power supply cable must match power supply (3-wire or 4-wire) and be:
■ Flexible armored cable or nonmetallic sheathed copper cable (with grounding wire), in a flexible metallic conduit.
Flexible conduits must be used to avoid conductor breakage due to vibration. All current-carrying wires must be
insulated.
■ Copper wire of appropriate gauge for amperage requirement (see “Manufacturer’s Recommended Minimal Conductor
Section”). Stranded wire is recommended. Do not use aluminum wire.

WARNING: Risk of electrical shock

Connection is made directly to the disconnect switch on the back of the washer. To access the connections remove
the rear electric box cover. To access the heads of the connection screws, the red handle and yellow cover have to
be removed from the disconnect switch. The handle is held in place with a wedge on the switch shaft that is driven by
a Phillips head screw in the center of the handle. Loosen the screw and push in on it to release the wedge. Pull off
the handle. Note the orientation of the handle and the yellow parts so that they can be replaced in the same locations.
Check the rating plate on the washer. Make sure
that the supply phase and voltage match the rating
of the washer.
Some locations require an autonomous power
switch (I) at the current input, with a minimum of 3
mm between contacts. Fit a 300mA, type A,
immediate response differential protection. Check
your local regulations.
Insert the power cord through the large strain relief.
Connect the wiring per the correct illustration.

Multiple Single-Phase Machines in Line
When installing multiple single-phase washers into an existing 3-phase power supply, alternating the phases used as
the hot leg is recommended to evenly distribute power on the system. See illustration.

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONNECTING THE EARTH

This appliance must be connected to an equipment grounding conductor that must run with the circuit conductors
and connected to the green and yellow terminal block inside the rear electric panel.
Connect the terminal strip and check that the connections correspond to the operating voltage. Fit a 300mA, type A,
immediate response differential protection.
The machine must be connected to earth. See the illustration on the previous page.

Equipotential Bonding:
In addition to the equipment-grounding conductor discussed earlier that runs with the circuit conductor’s and is
connected to the equipment grounding terminal, all washers or appliances in the vicinity must be permanently
interconnected with a grounded connector.
The external connection points marked on the back of the washer serve for this purpose. See illustration below.
The cross-sectional area of the conductor must be at least electrically equivalent to the cross-sectional area of the
copper conductor used to power the washer.

WARNING! Soft and rigid mount washing machines must not be installed on non-foundation floors without
authorization from a technician familiar with the structure and resistance of the building.

Please check the weight of the machine plus the dynamic forces generated during spinning. The
manufacturer does not accept responsibility for any damage due to vibration in this type of installation.

WARNING! RIGID MACHINES MUST BE ANCHORED TO THE FLOOR. Correct construction of the anchorage
to the floor is essential to ensure the correct working of the appliance and to prevent serious damage to
the structure of the machine.

11.4 Using a Steel Base

Installation on a Steel Base

The steel base structure must be able to withstand the static and dynamic loads of the washer floor (see “Transmitted
Forces” chart on the previous page). The base must also allow the washer to be seated in a perfectly level manner.

Bases specifically designed for this washer are available from ADC.

11.5 Using an Elevated Concrete Pad

Installation on an Elevated Concrete Pad
Use this method if the existing floor is thinner than the
minimum in the mounting chart, or if the washer is to be
positioned above the existing floor level. The minimum height
of the elevated pad will be 4”–8” (100–200 mm) depending
on the washer model (see “Dimensions” illustration to the
right).

1. Break up and remove the existing floor down to a depth

of approx. 3” (75 mm) (see “Floor Removal” illustration
below). The hole should flare out at the bottom so that
it is about 5” (120 mm) wider at the bottom than the top.
Dimension F = W1 + 400mm, G = W2+W3+400mm
(see the “Rigid Washer Mounting Dimensions” chart).

2. Wet the complete hole and spread over with cement. 4” - 8” 2”

possible concrete deformations, we recommend
inserting an armature into the base of the pad. For
adequate connection of the new pad with the existing
floor, insert one or more reinforcing bars.

NOTE: When inserting the reinforcing bar(s), take into

consideration the locations (and space requirements) for
drilling holes. These holes will be used for the chemical or
expansion anchor bolts. 75 mm

Installation of the rigid washer-extractor without anchorage base
11.5.1 Using Expansion Bolts
Before anchoring the machine to the floor, make sure that its minimum resistance is equal or higher than 3500 psi
(25N/mm2).

First mark the locations of the mounting holes using the dimensions specified in the “Rigid Washing Machines” chart.

Next drill the mounting holes. Follow the manufacturing installation instructions, but the holes must be at least 4
inches (100mm) deep. The holes must not go all the way through the floor. Clean the holes with compressed air.
Place the washer-extractor in position over the holes, then insert the expansion bolts in the holes. Be sure to use
5/8-11 (M16) expansion bolts, and that they protrude above the surface by 2 inches (50mm). Once in place, tighten
the bolts until the machine is securely fastened.

11.5.2 Using J-bolts

Before anchoring the machine to the floor, make sure that its minimum resistance is equal or higher than 3500 psi
(25N/mm2).

First mark the locations of the mounting holes using the dimensions specified in the “Rigid Washing Machines” chart.
Next make holes to a depth, at minimum, equal to 4 inch (100mm). Make the holes big enough to insert the J-bolt and
clean using compressed air. Insert the J-bolts in the holes and secure using a suitable anchoring compound, ensuring
that the bolt protrudes above the surface by 2-1/2 inches (60mm). Be sure to use 5/8-11 (M16) J-bolts.

Place the washer-extractor in position above the bolts, and gradually tighten the nuts one after another until the
machine is securely fastened.
Check the condition of the J-bolts one week after installation.

below. The washer can be converted to anyone of these option. Conversion kits are available from your dealer.

12.1 Central Pay

Self-service machines with this configuration are ready for connection to a pay center. The pay center receives an
electrical signal from the washing machine informing of its availability and, at the same time, the washing machine
receives the signal that the correct money has been inserted and the programme may be run. The price and currency
settings are external to the washing machine and can therefore not be programmed. Please see the user manual for
details on the use of this self-service configuration.

12.2 Card Reader

The card reader operates in almost the same way as the central pay machine, prices and currency are programmed
on the card reader. Please see the user manual for details on the use of this self-service configuration.

12.3 Coin
On coin washers, the currency and price settings for each wash cycle are internal to the washer. Please see the user
manual for instructions on the use of this self-service configuration.

¡WARNING! The installation of the different self-service kits involves working with electrical components.
Switch off the machine before any work.

Work carried out by personnel not belonging to the authorised Technical Service will result in the loss of
