Important Safety Instructions
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, serious injury or
death to persons when using your washer, follow these
basic precautions:
1. Read all instructions before using the washer.
2. Refer to the GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS in the installation Manual for the proper grounding of the
washer.
3. Do not wash textiles that have been previously cleaned, washed, soaked, or spotted with gasoline,
dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances as they give off vapors that could
ignite or explode.
4. Do not add gasoline, dry-cleaning solvents, or other flammable or explosive substances to the wash
water. These substances give off vapors that could ignite or explode.
5. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been
used for such a period, before using a washing machine or combination washer-dryer, turn on all hot
water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated
hydrogen gas. The gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
6. Do not allow children to play on or in the washer. This appliance is not intended for use by young
children or infirm persons without supervision. Young children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the appliance.
7. Before the washer is removed from service or discarded, remove the door to the washing
compartment.
8. Do not reach into the washer if the wash drum is moving. This is an imminently hazardous situation
that, if not avoided, will cause severe personal injury or death.
9. Do not install or store the washer where it will be exposed to water and/or weather.
10. Do not tamper with the controls.
11. Do not repair or replace any part of the washer, or attempt any servicing unless specifically
recommended in the user-maintenance instructions or in published user-repair instructions that the
user understands and has the skills to carry out.
12. To reduce the risk of an electric shock or fire, DO NOT use an extension cord or an adapter to connect
the washer to an electrical power source.
13. Use a washer only for its intended purpose, washing textiles.
14. ALWAYS disconnect the washer from the electrical supply before attempting any service. Disconnect
the power cord by grasping the plug, not the cord.
15. Install the washer according to the INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS. All connections for water, drain,
electrical power and grounding must comply with local codes and be made by licensed personnel
when required.
16. To reduce the risk of fire, textiles which have traces of any flammable substances such as vegetable
oil, cooking oil, machine oil, flammable chemicals, thinner, etc., or anything containing wax or
chemicals such as in mops and cleaning cloths, must not be put into the washer. These flammable
substances may cause the fabric to catch on fire.
17. Do not use fabric softeners or products to eliminate static unless recommended by the manufacturer of
the fabric softener or product.
18. Keep washer in good condition. Bumping or dropping the washer can damage safety features. If this
occurs, have washer checked by a qualified service person.
19. Replace worn power cords and/or loose plugs.
20. Be sure water connections have a shut-off valve and that fill hose connections are tight. CLOSE the
shut-off valves at the end of each wash day.

21. Loading door MUST BE CLOSED any time the washer is to fill, tumble, or spin. DO NOT bypass the
loading door switch by permitting the washer to operate with the loading door open.
22. Always read and follow manufacturer’s instructions on packages of laundry and cleaning aids. Heed all
warnings or precautions. To reduce the risk of poisoning or chemical burns, keep them out of the reach
of children at all times (preferably in a locked cabinet).
23. Always follow the fabric care instructions supplied by the textile manufacturer.
24. Never operate the washer with any guards and/or panels removed.
25. DO NOT operate the washer with missing or broken parts.
26. DO NOT bypass any safety devices.
27. Failure to install, maintain, and/or operate this washer according to the manufacturer’s instructions
may result in conditions which can produce bodily injury and/or property damage.
28. It is recommended that the machine be installed by qualified technicians.
29. Before starting repairs or maintenance, shut off all power and water supplies.
30. To prevent fire and explosion:
Keep the area around the machine free from inflammable or combustible products.
NOTE: The WARNINGS and IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS appearing in this manual are not
meant to cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Common sense, caution, and
care must be exercised when installing, maintaining, or operating the washer.
Any problems or conditions not understood should be reported to the dealer, distributor, service agent, or

The machine is delivered with hoses with 3/4" connections (HF455-575) and with
1x3/4" + 3x1" connections (HF730-900). These hoses fit the water inlet valves of the
machine and the main water inlet taps. All the inlet valves have to be connected.
Water connection
To ensure the optimal functioning of the water inlet valves, the water pressure on the
inlet should be between 3 and 5 bar (40 and 80 psi). If the pressure is too low, the cycle
time will increase considerably.
Inlet flow capacity per minute (gallons / liters): 7.93 + 13.2 / 30 + 50.
In case of boiler fed machines, a minimum of hot water of 90°C - 194°F should be
available per unit. (See Table 1)

Electrical Installation
Important
Electrical ratings are subject to changes. Refer to serial plate decal for electrical ratings information
specific to your machine.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage. Can cause shock, burn or cause
death. Allow machine power to remain off for two minutes
prior to working in and around AC inverter drive.
WARNING
Hazardous Voltage. Can cause shock, burn or death.
Verify that a ground wire from a proven earth ground is
connected to the lug near the input power block on this
machine.
The AC inverter drive requires a clean power supply free from voltage spikes and surges. If a
transformer or generator is connected to the building's power supply, always install line reactors
before the terminal block connections to the machine. A voltage monitor should be used to check
incoming power. The customer’s local power company may provide such a monitor.
If input voltage measures above 240V for a 220V drive or above 480V for a 400V drive, ask the
power company to lower the voltage. As an alternative, a step-down transformer kit is available
from the distributor.
The AC drive provides overload protection for the drive motor. However, a separate single or
three-phase circuit breaker must be installed for complete electrical overload protection. This
prevents damage to the motor by disconnecting all legs if one should be lost accidentally. Check
the data plate on the back of the washer-extractor or consult Table 2 through 5 for circuit breaker
requirements.
IMPORTANT: Do NOT use fuses in place of a circuit breaker.
For installation in the United States or Canada, branch circuit protection must be provided
according to National and Local Codes. The branch circuit breaker must be of the inverse time or
instantaneous trip type at the values given in the technical specifications for each machine.
Use a circuit breaker of the minimal type of 10kA interrupt current.
CAUTION
Do not use a voltage or phase converter on any variable speed machine.
The washer-extractor should be connected to an individual branch circuit not shared with lighting or
another electrical device.
The connection should be shielded in a liquid tight or approved flexible conduit with proper
conductors of correct size installed in accordance with the National Electric Code or other
applicable codes. The connection must be made by a qualified electrician using the wiring diagram
provided with the washer-extractor, or according to accepted European standards for CE-approved
equipment.
26
4
Use wire sizes indicated in Table 2 through 5 for runs up to 50 feet.
Use next larger size for runs of 50 to 100 feet. Use two sizes larger for runs greater than 100 feet.
For personal safety and proper operation, the washer-extractor must be grounded in accordance
with state and local standards. If such standards are not available, grounding must conform to the
National Electric Code, article 250-95. The ground connection must be made to a proven earth
ground, not to a water pipe, gas pipe, or another metal pipe. Provide the necessary equipotential
connections according to the local electrical prescriptions.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or an equipment-
grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-
grounding terminal or lead on the appliance.
IMPORTANT: Alliance Laundry Systems Warranty does not cover components that fail as a
result of improper input voltage.

Main power connection
Label 3
Connection label:
Machine power connections are made at the back of the machine. Three or four conductor power cable
is the recommended method (See chapter electrical specs for minimum cable requirements, if local
electrical codes exceed these requirements, follow local codes). The number of conductors in this cable
and the proper connection points for the cable wires shall be determined by the machine and power
requirements. All machines must have a ground wire and be properly grounded. The ground wire must
be insulated with a green/yellow color. This wire is normally within the power cable but can also be a
separate wire run along side the power cable if properly sized.
Never run a machine that does not have a ground wire. This ground wire must be connected to
the machine grounding lug found near the main switch. This lug is identified with the international
“protective earth” symbol and the letters “PE”. Failure to connect this ground wire can lead to an unsafe
machine condition leading to machine damage and/or operator injury or death. This wire must be
connected to earth ground at far end.
Machine Power Cable Connections:
Remove main switch cover plate at back of machine (see chapter dimensions part (F)). Run power cable
through the cabinet knock-out located directly below the cover plate. Before installing, obtain and install
a cord-grip to hold the cable in place. Never rely upon the electrical connections to hold cable in place.
Allow some slack in this cable outside of the machine to form a drip-loop between the supply power circuit
breaker and the machine knock-out. Connect power cable wires as directed below. Always connect the
ground wire first and remove last.
Wiring based on the supply power and machine design (voltage/frequency):
440-480 Volts, 3-Phase, 3-wire or 4-wire + PE, 50 or 60 Hertz Configuration (Named: N-Voltage):
With supply power of: 440-480 Volts, 3-phase, 3-wire, after connecting the green/yellow PE ground wire,
connect one wire to each of the bottom terminals of the power contactor switch marked: “L1,L2,L3”. When
this supply power has four wires, connect this 4th wire, identified as a neutral wire, to the bottom terminal
of the auxiliary contactor on the power contactor switch marked: “N”. Connect the remaining power wires
as first noted.
380-415 Volts, 3-Phase, 4-wire + PE, 50 or 60 Hertz Configuration (Named: P-Voltage):
With supply power of: 380-415 Volts, 3-phase, 4-wire, after connecting the green/yellow PE ground wire,
follow the directions of the four wire system for 440-480 Volt configuration.
28
4
200-240 Volts, 3-Phase, 3-wire + PE, 50 or 60 Hertz Configuration (Named: Q-Voltage or 3-phase X-Voltage):
With supply power of: 200-240 Volts, 3-phase, 3-wire, after connecting the green/yellow PE ground wire, connect one power
wire to each of the terminals at the bottom of the power contactor switch marked: “L1,L2,L3”.
200-240 volts, 1-Phase, 2-wire + PE, 50 Hertz (called 1-phase, 50 Hz X-voltage):
With supply power of: 200-240 Volts, 1-phase, 2-wire, 50Hz, after connecting the green/yellow PE ground wire, connect
the power wire to the “L1” bottom terminal of the power contactor switch and the other wire, identified as the neutral wire,
to the bottom terminal of the auxiliary contactor on the power contactor switch marked: “N”.
200-240 volts, 1-Phase, 2-wire + PE, 60 Hertz (called 1-phase, 60 Hz X-voltage):
With supply power of: 200-240 Volts, 1-phase, 2-wire, 60Hz, after connecting the green/yellow PE ground wire, connect
one power wire to the “L1” and power wire to the “L2” of the bottom terminals of the power contactor switch.
After connection, check the spin direction. The cylinder must spin in the clockwise direction.
A wrong spin direction can damage the motor and can also cause water to spurt from the soap dispenser.
In case of wrong spin direction: switch the terminal clamps of the motor circuit “R” and “S” of the connecting cable or
change the connection at the terminal block switching the L1 and L2 wires.

Maintenance instruction of the machine
WARNING
To reduce the risk of electric shock, disconnect this appliance
from the power supply before attempting any user maintenance.
Turning the controls to the OFF position does not disconnect this
appliance from the power supply.
Before starting wiring or inspection, power must be switched OFF,
check to make sure that the operation panel indicator is off.
Any person who is involved in wiring or inspection shall wait for
at least 10 minutes after the power supply has been switched OFF
and check that there is no residual voltage using a tester or the
like. The capacitor of the inverter or the EMC filter is charged with
a high voltage for some time after power OFF, and it is dangerous.
End of day
Clean AC drive filter:
a. Snap off external plastic cover which contains filter.
b. Remove foam filter from cover.
c. Wash filter with warm water and allow to air dry. Filter can be vacuumed clean.
General maintenance
Clean the entire cabinet of the machine regularly and remove all traces of soap,
etc....
Remove all detergent residue in the soap dispenser with hot water.
Clean the door gasket and remove all detergents and other products.
Shut off the main water, steam, and power connections at the end of each day.
Do not change the setting of the water inlet taps on boiler fed machines once
these have been installed.
It is recommended to leave the door and soap dispenser open after use, to
ventilate the machine.
Check for proper door lock operation on a daily basis.
The V-belts of the motors should be retightened after two to three months when
first used. This is necessary because these belts are subject to a one-time
stretching when first used. If this is not done, the belt starts to slip after a few
months and will break shortly afterwards.
Periodical maintenance
Check the water inlet filters to make sure they are not blocked by calcification.
Check the drain valve for obstructions.
If a machine frequently skips the final spin, check whether the probe of the out of
balance switch is still in the appropriate position, that is horizontally centered and
vertically 1/3 from the bottom inside the window. (When the drum is empty).
Lubricate the bearings after every 200 hours of operation or replace the automatic
lubricator annually.
