Your front-load washing machine came with shipping bolts inserted to the back of the machine. During setup, installers eliminated the bolts and also gave them to one to use throughout future movements. A front-load washing machine employs a suspension system to support the washtub while it agitates and spins, but the system is not designed to resist the strain of moving. The delivery bolts maintain the tub secure during a transfer and cut back the amount of shaking that could hurt the suspension. If you don’t have the necessary shipping bolts, then you can purchase them via a appliance repair facility.
Unplug your front-load washing machine from the wall outlet. Pull the machine far away from the utility room wall to access the drain line and water heaters.
Set the bucket behind the front load washer. Untwist the water hoses from the connectors on the back of the washing machine. Place the hose ends at the bucket. Pull the drain hose from the drain and allow any water from the hose to drain in the bucket.
Pull the front-load washing machine from the installation location until you can effortlessly access the drier’s rear panel. Unsnap the cupboard plugs covering the four transportation bolt holes in each corner of the back panel.
Insert the shorter shipping bolts to the top bolt hole openings. Use a socket and wrench to tighten the bolts. Insert the more bolts to the bottom holes and tighten them securely. Several brands of washing machines might have shipping bolts that are all the exact same length, and some other delivery bolt can be utilised in any hole.
