Unpacking and Removing
Transit Bolts
1
Lift the appliance off the foam base.
• After removing the carton and shipping
material, lift the appliance off the foam
base. Make sure the tub support comes off
with the base and is not stuck to the bottom
of the appliance.
• If you must lay the appliance down to
remove the carton base, always protect the
side of the appliance and lay it carefully on
its side. Do not lay the appliance on its front
or back.

NOTE
• Save the bolt assemblies for future use. To
prevent damage to internal components, Do
not transport the washing machine without
reinstalling the transit bolts.
• Failure to remove transit bolts and retainers
may cause severe vibration and noise, which
can lead to permanent damage to the washing
machine. The cord is secured to the back of
the washing machine with a shipping bolt to
help prevent operation with transit bolts in
place.
