Electrolux Dryer Wall Mounting Instructions

Electrolux Dryer Wall Mounting Instructions

INSTRUCTIONS FOR WALL MOUNTING YOUR DRYER

The wall or vertical surface must be strong enough to support the weight of the fully loaded dryer ­ approximately 45kg.
If the dryer will be above a top loading washing machine, leave sufficient space below the dryer for the washer lid to open.

Push the slotted tabs right in on the back panel nearest your choice of the top (can be mounted either way), using the brackets or a flat type of screwdriver.

Existing Hoover, Westinghouse or Simpson Brackets
Remove the old brackets and replace with the new bracket, using the appropriate holes to refasten the new brackets. For Electrolux, Westinghouse and Simpson models please use the 8mm diameter holes.

New Bracket Installation
Use the dimensions below to mark the correct location of the holes to be drilled, ensuring the distance between the brackets and the holes are all correctly aligned.

Brick or Solid Construction Walls
Use the top holes (6.5mm diameter) to mount the bracket. Bolt the brackets directly to the wall using suitable self locking masonry fasteners, 6mm in diameter x 30mm long.

Timber Framed Walls
Brackets must be positioned so that they attach to the wall studs behind the plaster board or wall sheeting. If it is not possible to screw the brackets directly into the wall studs because they are at an inconvenient height or spacing, a timber batten (90mm x 35mm) which will span the distance between the two vertical studs is needed. Fasten the batten to the wall studs using four coach screws (6mm diameter x 70mm long). The wall brackets can then be screwed to the batten using the top two holes on each side with four coach screws (6mm diameter x 30mm long).

If mounting the dryer on a batten, you will need to mount another piece of timber approximately 600mm long near the bottom of the dryer, in line with the two wall spacers. This will keep the dryer vertical.

Insert the spacers at the bottom of the dryer. Push them into the key-hole slots, then rotate the spacers quarter turn to lock. (Push tabs right in)

Note: the dryer can be mounted either way for your convenience.
It is advisable to have a second person to assist when hanging the dryer.
