How to disconnect the washing machine from the water pipe? We will tell in detail:

  1. Make sure that the washing machine is not started, and then unplug the machine. If the connection was via an extension cable, disconnect it.

  4. Open the access to the back of the washing machine. If you do this yourself, alternately pull one at a time, then another. Together, the task is easier, because you can simultaneously make the effort and rearrange the machine. Pay attention that hoses are not tightened, and there was no premature disconnection.
  5. Remove the water inlet hose. Use the key if it is fastened with nuts, and the screwdrivers to remove the clamp are clockwise.
  6. After placing the water collecting tank at the bottom, disconnect the hose from the AGR. Drain the remaining water, then disconnect the other end of the hose from the valve by scrolling clockwise.
  7. Disconnect the wire and the hose, attach it to the wall of the washing machine.
  8. Disconnect the drain hose from the washing machine and the sewer, draining the remaining water in the bucket. Then attach it to the wall of the CM on the bracket.
  9. Clean the fittings from the dirt with a brush. Carefully fasten all detached parts with adhesive tape so that they are not damaged or lost if you transport a stick.
  10. Take care of attaching the drum. During transport, it may be damaged, so use special bolts or pieces of foam rubber for fastening.
  11. Collect all the parts in one place and pack them.
  12. Make sure there is no water left in the system. Otherwise, during shaking, water can get to the control unit, which will lead to its malfunction.

It is advisable to allow the washing machine and all its parts to dry before transport. To do this, open the door hatch and let the stiralk stand for 24 hours.

Now you know how to properly detach the washing machine from the water pipe. Therefore, avoid unnecessary problems when rearranging or transporting.

The main thing - always adhere to safety precautions, disconnect the device from the mains first.
