Manual 3. Description of principal components 3
The machine is a free-swinging model i.e. the outer drum and motor
bridge and suspended in the machine chassis via a spring
suspension with a strong spring in each corner of the machine. Each
spring has a shock absorber which dampens the movement of the
machine.
The wash drum or inner drum is driven by two motors via a V-belt:
one motor for washing and distribution speed and one for spin speed.
The inner drum is mounted in the outer drum with two heavy duty
bearings at the back plate and is sealed with two V-rings.
The motors are suspended underneath on a motor support with a belt
tensioning device. The motors are mechanically coupled to each
other with V-belts. During wash and distribution speed the spin motor
transmits power to the drum.
The water inlet and drain are both situated under the outer drum. This
improves the flow during filling and prevents water vapour from
entering the detergent compartment.
The robust square door is locked with a handle which is interlocked
by a safety locking device when the machine is running.
The operating panel contains several buttons for manual control of
certain functions: restart button; indication light; thermostat and a flat-
card unit through which programmed cards can control the washing
programmes.
Reverses, level switches, relays etc are placed in the automatic unit,
which is easily accessible from above and can be replaced via a
plug-in system.
The machine housing consists of hot-dip galvanised, painted steel
plates and stainless steel sheets, painted on the front and sides. It
has a stainless door (and front, on request).

Prewash
Prewash lasts for 4 minutes (track numbers 0 to 7). It starts with cold
water to high level, detergent dispensing compartment 1 and heating
until thermostat value selected on dial B is reached (peg number 0 in
tracks A, B, N and O removed).
The card programme is held on water fill cut until selected
temperature is reached. As the card must be punched for the entire
time advance is necessary, cams B, N and O are removed for the
running time required. The removal of these pegs during the running
time does not cause water and heating to be on continually, as these
functions are now controlled by the thermostat and level check. The
absence of a peg is required in order to initiate a function and to
advance the automatic card device. After the water level and
temperature have been reached the running time of this card is 2,5
minutes (peg 1 to 6 have been removed in cams B, N and O). Cams
A, B, N and O have been removed in peg -1 as a safety measure to
ensure the washing is done correctly even if the card is incorrectly
adjusted, see "4. Card Programing").
The prewash ends with emptying, Drain, for 0,5 minutes (peg 7 in
cam K removed)
Main wash
The main wash takes 9 minutes and starts with cold water inflow, hot
water detergent dispensing from compartment 2 and heating till the
value selected on thermostat dial D is reached (peg no 8 in cams C,
E, O and Q removed).
The advance of the programmed card stops at peg 8 until the water
level and temperature of thermostat D have been reached. As the
card must be punched for the whole time advance is required track D,
I and Q are removed for the appropriate time. The removal of these
pegs during the running time does not cause water and heating to be
on continually, as these functions are now controlled by the
thermostat and level check. The absence of a peg is required in order
to initiate a function and to advance the automatic card device. When
the water level and temperature have been reached the running time
of this card is 7,5 minutes (peg 8 to 24 have been removed in tracks
D, O and Q).
The main wash ends with emptying, Drain, for 0,5 minutes (peg 25 in
track K removed).

Rinses 1 to 3
Rinses 1-3 last for 4,5 minutes and are identical. Rinse 1 is described
here. The rinse starts with cold water inflow until high water level is
reached (peg 26 in track N and O removed).
The automatic card device stops advancing the programmed card at
peg 26 until the water level is reached. As the card must be punched
for the entire time advance is necessary. Tracks N and O are
removed for the required running time. The removal of these pegs
during the running time does not cause water to be flushing
continually, as this function is now controlled by the level check. The
absence of a peg is required in order to initiate a function and to
advance the automatic card device. When the water level and
temperature have been reached the running time of this card is 2,5
minutes peg 26 to 31 have been removed in tracks N and O).
The rinse ends with Drain for 1,5 minutes with Spin for the last half
minute peg 41 to 43 in tracks K and N peg 42 to 43 in track H
removed). Track K should always be progarmmed parallel with cam
H so that the water can drain, but as spinning should not take place
when the drum is filled with water, cam K (Drain) is programmed one
peg earlier than the spin, allowing the water to empty before the spin
starts.
Rinse 4
Rinse 4 lasts for 9 minutes and starts with inflow of cold water to high
level and detergent dispensing (fabric conditioner) from compartment
3 peg 53 in tracks E, N and O removed).
The advance of the programmed card stops at peg 53 until the water
level has been reached. As the card must be punched for the whole
time advance is required, tracks N and O are punched for the
appropriate time. The removal of these pegs during the running time
does not cause the water to flush continually, as this function is now
controlled by the level check. The absence of a journal is required in
order to initiate a function and to advance the automatic card device.
When the water level has been reached the running time of this card
is 3 minutes (peg 54 to 58 have been removed in tracks N and O).
Rinse 4 ends with Drain for 6 minutes peg 59 to 70 in track K
removed). When the drain has run for 0,5 minutes the spin starts and
lasts for 5 minutes peg 60 to 69 in track H removed). The first minute
of spin is slow and the remaining 4 minutes high speed. The spin
ends with distribution speed for 0,5 minutes. This is achieved through
clipping track K one after the last journal of the spin.
Completion
Completion of the washing process can be achieved through
punching peg 71 in track M (Programme Stop). A programme stop is
indicated by a buzzer and the yellow signal lamp in the restart button
lights up.

Restart
Use row M, stop (3) on the program card, to stop the program sequence
either to dispense detergent or when the wash is done.
When row M (3) has been programmed, the programmer switch changes
from position 2-3 to 1-3. This supplies power to buzzer B40 (8) and lamp
H2 (7), and at the same time disconnects the washing functions and
programmer motor (although the drain remains closed).
Relay coil K52 (6) is energised by pressing switch S32 (4) and is locked via
K52:13-14 (5). K52:43-44 (2) closes, re-energising the wash functions and
the wash cycle continues.
When the program card has been fed so far that row M no longer is
programmed (switch M then switches to position 2-3), the lock releases on
K52 (6).

Door lock
When the door has been locked with the handle the microswitch S3 (6) is
activated in the locking unit. Turning programmer knob to I closes switch
S30 (7), delay unit D1 (11) is receiving power and door lock coil Y80 (12)
locks the door. Switch S4 (8) then closes, so that the machine can start.
To prevent the door being opened immediately after a extraction (roll-out
time may be 2-3 minutes), while at the same time limiting the delay time
once washing has finished to approx. 35 seconds, the delay unit is fitted
with a time relay and works as follows:
• Time relay motor K62 (11) is energised even if machine switch S1 (3)
(13) is at OFF. This means the time relay is normally in position 12-13
from the start and when the machine runs at wash or distribution speed.
In this position, one of the capacitors in the delay unit (11) is cut out, at
the same time as the 39 kΩ resistor is short circuit. The door can now
be opened approx. 35 seconds after a power failure or when the
programmer knob is turned to 0 and breaking S30 (7).
• Extraction activates relay K9 or K10 and the power to time relay motor
K62 is cut by K9:51-52 (9) or K10:51-52 (10). The time relay contact
switches to position 11-12, and the delay circuit now keeps the door
closed about 3-3.5 minutes at a power failure or the programmer knob is
turned to 0. After extraction, time relay K62 is re-energised. At the end
of the time set on the relay (2 minutes for 120 litre machines and 3
minutes for 220 litre machines), the time relay contact resets to position
12-13.

Water filling
The following conditions must be met for water valves Y14 (12), Y24 (13) or
Y34 (14) to be energised:
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks K53:51-52 (2)
power supply)
• Row K, drain (3) must not be programmed
• The water level must not exceed low or high level
Level control B1 (6) has two switching contacts, 21-22 switches at low
level and 31-32 switches at high level. Which of these contacts activate
the water valves depend on whether row N, high level (5) is
programmed or not.
If the the above conditions are met, the water valves can be controlled by
programming row O, Cold water (7), row Q, Hot water (9) and Row L, Cold
hard water (11).
The water valves Y14 (12) and Y24 (13) can also be controlled manually

Detergent
The machine has three built-in detergent compartments controlled by three
water valves. A total of five valves can also be controlled in an external
supply unit via connector X19. The following conditions must be met to
control the valves:
• The door must be closed and locked, and the programmer knob must be
in position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence).
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks K53:51-52 (2)
power supply)
• Row K, drain (3) must not be programmed
Once these conditions are met, the water valves can be controlled by
programming row A (4), detergent prewash, row C (6), detergent main
wash and row I (9), softener. Row E (7) and row G (8) can be used to
control another two valves in an external supply unit.
Row P (10) controls valve Y11b (14) which is used for cool-down (see
sequence '’Cool-down’').
Water valve Y11a/Y21 (12) can also be controlled manually with switch

The following conditions must be met for relay K21/valve Y51 (11) to be
energised:
• The door must be closed and locked, and the programmer knob must be
in position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence)
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks K53:51-52 (2)
power supply)
• Row K, drain (3) must not be programmed
• The drum must be filled with water to the correct level.
Level control B1 (6) has two closing contacts, 21-23 (low water level)
and 31-33 (high water level). Which of these is active depends on
whether row N (5) is programmed or not.
If the above conditions are met, the closing contact in thermostat B11 (10)
is energised.
The thermostat has three different temperature settings, using the three
dials B, D and F. Which setting the thermostat is to follow depends on
whether row B (7), D (8) or F (9) has been programmed on the program
card.
If any of the three rows are programmed, and the water temperature is
lower than the set temperature, the closing contact 11-13 in the thermostat
switches and relay K21/valve V51 (11) is energised.

Wash speed
Relay K2 connects the wash speed windings on the wash motor. The
following conditions must be met for relay coil K2 (7) to be energised:
• The door must be closed and the programmer knob must be in
position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence)
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed
• The drum speed must be less than 550 rpm (120 litre) or 310rpm (220
litre). If it exceeds this, speed control B31 (2) breaks to avoid
damaging the motor.
• The drain must be closed. (K31:51-52 (3) is closed when the drain is
closed). If the drain is open, the machine will run at distribution speed.
In this case, K31:51-52 (3) breaks, cutting out the wash windings on
motor M1.
If the above conditions are met, reverser motor M22 (8) starts. Reverser
contacts 1 (5) for normal action and 2 (6) for gentle action now open and
close according to a preset schedule (see diagram below). Switch S33
(4) on the front panel governs which of the two reverser contacts controls
relay K2.

Distribution speed
Relay K3 connects the distribution speed windings on the wash motor. The
following conditions must be met for relay coil K3 (13) to be energised:
• The door must be closed and locked and the programmer knob must be
in position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence).
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed.
The machine runs at distribution speed when the drain valve, controlled by
relay K31, is open. The following conditions must be met for relay K31 (5)
to be energised:
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks K53:51-52
(2) power supply).
• Row K, drain (3), must be programmed.
• Row 3b (4) in the reverser must be closed (see diagram below).
This contact closes when the wash motor is running and the drum is
rotating in the same direction as at distribution speed. This prevents
unnecessary stress on the motor, belts and drum bearings when
engaging distribution speed.
When K31 energized, K31:51-52 (7) cuts the power supply to relay K2,
which de-energises the motor wash windings. K31:51-52 also cuts the
power to reverser motor M22 (8). The reverser stops, which means that
reverser contact 3b (4) remains closed until the motor is running at
distribution speed.
When K31 is energized, closes K31:43-44 (9), which means that relay coil
K3 (13) is energised and connect the motor distribution speed windings.

Drain
Relay K31 (5) controls the drain valve. The following conditions must be
met for relay K31 to be energised:
• The door must be closed and locked, and programmer knob must be in
position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence).
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed.
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks
K53:51-52 (2) power supply).
• Row K, drain (3) must be programmed.
• Reverser, row 3b (4) must be closed.
The machine will run at distribution speed if the drain is activated. Row
3b is used to ensure that the motor windings are switched in at the right
speed. For more details, see ”Distribution speed”.
When K31 is energized, K31:71-72 (7) cuts the power supply to the drain
valve Y1 (8) and the drain valve opens.
The drain valve can also be controlled manually via switch S34 .

Extraction
The section below and the diagram on the next page refer to 220 litre
machines. In 120 litre machines, there is no clutch between the
motors.
Relays K9 (13), low extraction, and K10 (14), high extraction, control the
connections to the extract motor windings. The following conditions must
be met for these relays to be energised:
• The door must be closed and locked, and the programmer knob must be
in position I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence).
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed.
• The out-of-balance switch must not have tripped (breaks
K53:51-52 (2) power supply).
• Row K, drain (3) must be programmed.
When row K (3) switches to position 1-3 and reverser contact 3b (8) is in
the right position (see ”Distribution speed” sequence), relay coil K31 (15) is
energised. As a result:
• The drain valve opens.
• K31:43-44 (18) closes, relay coil K3 (22) is energised and connects the
wash motor distribution speed windings.
• Relay K63 (9) is energised and after about 30 seconds closes relay
contact 12-13 (9).
If row H (5), extraction, is programmed:
• Relay coil K9 (13) is energised and connects the extract motor windings
for low extraction.
• K9:11-12 (20) cuts the power to relay K3 (22).
• When the drum speed exceeds approx. 310 rpm (220 litre models), the
speed control B31 (17) switches to position 1-3. The clutch Y70 (23)
which connects the two motors is de-energised, disconnecting the wash
motor from the extract motor.
After about 60 seconds low extraction, relay K61 (10) switches to position
12-13. As a result:
• Relay coil K9 (13) cuts out, relay coil K10 (14) is energised and
connects the extract motor high extraction windings.
• When relay coil K9 (13) is de-energised, K9:11-12 (20) closes. Since
the speed control B31 (17) contact is in position 1-3, this energises relay
coil K3 (22) and restarts the wash motor at distribution speed. This is
designed to prevent the wash motor bearings being damaged by
vibration during extraction.

Out-of-balance
This acts as a safeguard against excessive stress during the extraction. If
the wash is unevenly distributed in the drum, the extraction stops, the wash
is redistributed and the extraction starts again. This takes place
automatically as follows:
• Out-of-balance switch S9 (3) trips.
Immediately afterwards:
• Relay coil K53 (10) is energised and locks since K53:33-34 (4) and
K53:43-44 (6) closes.
• K53:81-82 (28) cuts power to spin contacts K9 and K10, and the
machine stops the extraction.
• K53:71-72 (16) cuts power to relay coil K3 (17) (distribution speed).
• K53:51-52 (18) cuts power to relay coil K31 (21). This closes K31:71-72
(24), energising drain valve Y1 (25) and closing the drain.
• K53:13-14 (7) closes, energising valve Y14 (9) and letting cold water into
the drum.
If the drum speed falls below about 310 rpm (220 litre models) or 550 rpm
(120 litre models):
• Speed control B31 (11) switches to position 1-2. Since K31:51-52 (12)
is closed, this energises relay K2, and the machine starts to run at wash
speed.
Once the water reaches the high level:
• Level control B1 (5) switches to position 31-33, cutting the power to relay
coil K53 (10). K53 unlocks. Valve Y14 (9) closes.
• K53:51-52 (18) closes, relay coil K31 (21) is energised when reverser
contact 3b closes (see ”Distribution speed”). Drain valve Y1 (25) is de-
energised (K31:71-72 (24) breaks) and the drain opens.
• K31:51-52 (12) cuts the power to relay K2, K31:43-44 (13) closes,
energising relay coil K3 (17). The machine switches from wash speed to
distribution speed.
• After about 30 seconds, time relay K63 contact 12-13 (30) closes. If the
water level now falls below level control B1 (29)
minimum safety level (extraction), this energises extraction relay K9 and
the extract starts again. At the same time, K9:11-12 (15) cuts the power
to relay coil K3 (17).

Programmer advance
The programmer stops at three stages in the wash cycle: during water
filling, heating and if the out-of-balance switch trips.
The following general conditions must be met for the programmer to start:
• The door must be closed and locked, and the programmer knob must be
at I (see ”Power supply and start” sequence).
• Row M, stop (1) must not be programmed.
The events at the different stages in the wash cycle are as follows:
• Water filling
The programmer motor (11) stops since both level control (6) switch
contacts are in the left-hand position. Once the correct level is reached
(depending on how row N (5) has been programmed), the level control
contacts switch, and the programmer motor is energised again.
• Heating
During heating, thermostat B11 (7) switch contact is in position 11-13.
This cuts off the power to the programmer motor. Once heating has
finished, the contact switches to position 11-12, and the programmer
motor is energised again.
• Out-of-balance
If the out-of-balance switch trips, relay K53 opens (see ”Out of balance”).
K53:51-52 (2) then cuts the power to the programmer motor. At the end
of the out-of-balance sequence, K53:51-52 closes again.
• Drain and extraction
During the drain phase, row K (3) is in position 1-3. Relay K31 is
energised during drain. In this case, K31:13-14 (9) is closed and the
programmer motor is energised, even once the water level has dropped
so that the switch contact on level control B1 (6) cuts the power.
Since draining also must be programmed during extraction, the above
conditions also apply during extraction.

Description
The automatic card device controls machine functions
such as filling of water, drain, spin etc. The automatic
card device has a row of microswitches (16) which
sense the absence of pegs in the tracks on a
programmed card. The automatic card device has a
motor which advances the programmed card one
step (one peg) each 30 seconds. During the filling of
water and heating the advance of the card is stopped
till the relevant function is completed and the correct
water level and the temperature selected on the
thermostat have been reached. The advance of the
card continues when the functions are completed.
Automatic card device
Repair instructions
• Check that the synchronised motor of the
automatic card device is live. Note that the
microswitch (side H, Y11) which reads the dial
must be actuated. The microswitch for the
synchronised motor (V-side) must also be
switched on.
• Check that the backing rollers are clean and that
the track followers between the card and the
microswitches are clean and run smoothly. (The
card can often leave detergent on the backing
rollers and track followers).

Description
The programmer is electronic and is made up of two circuit
boards, the control board with microprocessors and
program memory, and the relay board with relays and
interference suppression circuits. The programmer has the
following outputs and inputs:
• Outputs which, via relays, control the various functions
of the machine such as water fill, drain, spin etc.
• Outputs which control the information that is to appear
on the display.
• Inputs that detect keystrokes from the keyboard.
• Inputs that give information about the status of the
washing machine from, for example, thermostat
sensors, level detectors, out-of-balance detectors, door
lock and speed switch.
The programmer is controlled by the instructions stored in
the program memory. The memory is in the form of two
memory chips (see diagram below):
• The lower chip, which contains memory information that
cannot be changed, contains instructions about
operation, service program, relay control, sensing of
inputs etc. It also contains the standard programs
supplied with the machine on delivery.
• The upper memory chip stores programs created by the
customer. The content of this memory can easily be
changed by erasing unwanted programs and creating
new ones.

Description
The revering and gentle action of the machine are
controlled by the reverser. This contains a reversing
cylinder with permanent cams which actuate the
making and breaking contacts. The reversing cylinder
is driven by a synchronised motor which rotates once
in 3 minutes.
Repair instructions
Checking the reverser motor
• A complete motor can only rotate in one direction.
If the reverser motor is live but the motor is not
running, replace the motor.
• Remove the clamp which holds the motor.
• Mark up the push ons of the motor connections
and remove them.
• Replace the motor with a new one. Check that the
cogs enter the reverser correctly.
• Connect the cables and put back the clamp.

Manual 28. Unbalance cutout 28
Description
The unbalance cutout is a safety device. This prevents
the machine from being damaged during spinning as a
result of uneven distribution of the washing.
This unbalance cutout consists of microswitches and
an operating arm installaed in the automatic unit,
together with a circular sensor which is installed in the
counterweight of the machine.
If the counterweight, and subsequently the sensor,
move outside a certain area, the sensor will activate
the microswitch via the operating arm. The operating
power to the spin relay is consequently cut and the
timer switches over to washing speed while at the
same time the machine takes in cold water to the high
level. The timer then switches over to distribution

The door safety locking device consists of the following main parts:
Fig. • Locking unit. The door locking unit is placed behind the front plate and
2 under the detergent box. The unit consist of a coil, which blocks the
door, and two micro switches. Switch S3 indicates that the door is locked
and switch S4 that the coil is activated.
• Delay unit. The delay unit is mounted in the control unit. It consists of a
printed board with two capacitors and a time relay. The dealy unit
controls the time for the door locking after the program is finished or in
case of electrical cut out.
• Locking arm. The arm is placed between the door handle and the locking
unit and transfer the movement from the door handle to the locking unit.

Function
Fig. When the door has been locked by the door handle, the locking arm is
3 turned and activating the microswitch S3 in the locking unit. When the
programmer knob is turned to position I, switch S30 is closed, the delay unit
receives voltage and the coil is locking the door. And then switch S4 is
closed and the program can start.
In order to prevent the door from being opened directly after the final
extraction (roll out time can be about 2-3 minutes) but at the same time limit
the delay time after the program to about 35 seconds, the delay unit has a
time relay and works as follow:
• The time relay motor K62 receives voltage even if the ON/OFF switch
S1 is in position OFF. This means that the contact of the time relay
normally is in position 12-13 directly form start and when the drum is
rotating with wash or distribution speed. During this circumstance one of
the capacitors is disconnected and at the same time the 39 kΩ
resistance is short circuited. The door can now be opened 35 seconds
after a power cut out or when the programmer knob is turned to 0.
• At extraction relay K9 or K10 is activated and the voltage to time relay
motor K62 is interrupted. The contact of the tie relay switch over to
position 11-12 and the delay unit now keeps the door locked about 3-3,5
min. when the programmer knob is turned to 0 or a power cut off. After
the extraction it takes two minutes (120 l machine) resp. three minutes
(220 l machine) before the contact of the time relay go back to position
12-13.

Function
If the machine has not been energised within the last three minutes, the door will
remain unlocked. When the machine is energised the door will be locked if a program
is activated or if the drum is rotating. Upon completion of a program the door will be
unlocked automatically as soon as the drum has stopped rotating.
If the power supply is cut to a machine which was energised the door will remain
locked for three minutes, after which time it will be unlocked automatically.
Fig. The diagram below shows how the delay unit works.
5 When the machine is energised the delay unit is fed phase and neutral on X194:5
and X194:4 respectively. The door lock coil Y80 is then fed phase (via a normally-
closed relay contact) and neutral from X194:3. The relay coil acts on two conditions -
that the drum is at a standstill and an ”open” signal from the programmer circuit
board:
• One side of the relay coil receives a neutral when the rotation guard short-circuits
X193:1 and 2.
• The other side of the relay coil is supplied with phase from the programmer circuit
board (”open” signal).
Both of these conditions must be fulfilled for the door to be unlocked.
In the event of a power cut the capacitor will discharge via the relay and the door lock
solenoid. In this way the door lock solenoid continues to operate for three minutes,
after which the door is unlocked automatically.

Description
FLE and FLE MP
Fig. Both motors, one for wash and distribution and one for extraction, are installed on the same
1 motor bridge. The motors drive the drum and are mechanically connected to each other by
V-belts. On the 220 litre machine there is also an electromechanical connection. The
motors rotate at each other's speed during wash speed, distribution speed and low
extraction speed.
During high extraction speed the speed guard on the 220 litre machine gives a signal to the
electromechanical connection. This disconnects the motors from each other mechanically.
The wash motor now runs at distribution speed and the extract motor at high speed.
On the 120 litre machine the power supply to the wash motor is disconnected by the speed
guard.
On the motor bridge there are belt tension devices. The extract motor is screwed to a
mobile plate which moves via oblong holes in the motor bridge. This is used to tension the
belt drive between the motors. It is possible to tilt the entire motor bridge with the use of the
oblong holes on the wash motor side. This is used to tension the V-belt up to the wash
drum.
The motors are equipped with thermal guards which are placed in the motor coiling. In the
case of overheating in the motors e.i. if the temperature exceeds 130°C, the guard contacts
cut the power to the motor relays.
The following illustration shows the engagement of both motors. The connection is made
with snap connections, which facilitate the change of motor.

Description
Fig. The purpose of the speed guard is to protect the
1 wash motor during extraction.
On the motor output shaft there is a polarised
magnet element (wash motor on 120 litres; spin
motor on 220 litres) which is sensed by the speed
guard. When the extraction motor has reached a
certain speed the speed guard sends a signal to the
LED
automatic unit and the power is cut. The wash motor
is reconnected when the extraction motor speed has
dropped and the wash motor cannot be damaged Adjustment pot
through connection.
On the 220 litres machine the two motors are
disconnected. The speed guard cuts the power to
the electromechanical connection on the output shaft
and the extraction motor can speed up without being
followed by the wash motor. When the speed guard
has disconnected the two motors a signal is sent to
the wash motor to run at distribution speed. This is to
protect the ball bearings of the wash motor against
vibrations from the extraction.
The speed guard has a potentiometer for the
adjustment of the cutout point and an LED which
indicates when the cut out point has been reached.

Description
The drain valve is a motor-operated diaphragm
valve which ensures rapid machine emptying by its
opening on a large cross-sectional surface area. Its
design is self-clearing, which eliminates the need
for fluff filters.
The main components are:
• motor with gear
• acme-threaded plunger rod with plunger and
return spring
• rubber diaphragm
• connections for water filling, overfilling and
drainage.
In the open position the valve is de-energised. The
plunger rod is thus screwed down to its lowest
position by the returning spring. The diaphragm is
compressed, forcing the piston downwards and
opening the valve.
When the motor is activated and begins to rotate,
the plunger rod is screwed upwards via the gear,
the diaphragm is compressed, forcing the plunger
upwards, and the valve closes.
The overfilling connection is connected to the upper
half of the washing drum, and the water and suds
are led directlyto the waste outlet, should the inlet
valves or level control cease to function.
The connection for water filling as well as a nipple
for connection of the sensing line for the level
control are located on the riser to the washing
drum.

dissolves properly in the water, as well as flushing
the container clean.
A water-filling line runs from the bottom of the
container down to the drain valve riser. This
ensures a favourable flow to the washing, while
also stopping any fumes from the detergent
solution from rising up into the detergent container.
The lid of the container is made of rubber, has a
