HOSES When replacing the large hoses, be sure to avoid getting the lip turned under the hose clamp. This will damage the hose and cause a leak. The large hoses have notches on the ends to index them on the connectors. Be sure the notch is pushed down all the way on the index boss. Use the ears on the hose ends to pull the hoses over the connections.

BAFFLES (Lifters) You can replace the baffle and rollers without having to remove the drum. Unscrew the retaining screw at the back of the baffle. Slide it toward the front of the washer to remove it. You can unscrew the retainer inside the baffle to replace the roller balls.

MUSHROOM VALVES Be sure the mushroom is in place before attaching the hose. This will eliminate the ejection of water through the vent or dispenser in the event the drum spins and ejects water. If the stem is too long, it will contact the drum and make significant noise when the drum turns.(If this happens, trim a little bit off and make sure the valve stem is not deformed so it can still ride up and down in its housing.) The valves are shown on the exploded view, the locations have been numbered (X1 and X2) on some of the EXPLODED VIEW diagrams. Some models have discontinued the use of the mushroom valves. Check the exploded view for the particular model you are repairing.
