Setup and Installation

Safety First: Before beginning any installation or replacement procedure, ensure the laundry appliance is completely disconnected from its power source (unplugged or circuit breaker off) and water supply (if applicable). Failure to do so may result in electric shock, injury, or damage to the appliance.

Required Tools:

• Appropriate screwdriver or wrench (size may vary depending on existing fasteners).
• Gloves (recommended for protection).

Installation Steps:

1. Access the Metercase: Carefully open or remove the necessary panels of your laundry appliance to gain access to the meter case assembly. Refer to your appliance's specific service manual for panel removal instructions.
2. Remove Old Bracket/Nut: Locate the existing meter case bracket and nut. Using the appropriate tools, carefully remove any fasteners securing the old bracket and then remove the bracket and nut.
3. Position New Bracket: Place the new Metercase Bracket (Model 204616) in the correct position, aligning any mounting holes.
4. Insert Nut: Insert the provided nut into its designated slot or opening on the bracket. Ensure it is seated securely.
5. Secure the Assembly: Use the appropriate fasteners (not included, typically reused from the old assembly or specified by the appliance manufacturer) to secure the bracket and nut assembly firmly to the appliance structure. Ensure all connections are tight but do not overtighten.
6. Reassemble Appliance: Once the new bracket and nut are securely installed, reattach any panels or covers that were removed.
7. Restore Power: Reconnect the appliance to its power source and water supply (if applicable).

If you are unsure about any step, it is recommended to consult a qualified technician or refer to your appliance's specific service manual.

Operation

The Metercase Bracket and Nut Kit is a static component designed to hold the meter case securely in place. Once properly installed, it operates passively as part of the appliance's structural integrity. No direct user interaction is required for its operation.

Maintenance

This kit requires minimal maintenance. Periodically, during routine appliance inspections or servicing, check the bracket and nut for any signs of corrosion, loosening, or damage. If any issues are observed, consider replacement to maintain the structural integrity of the meter case assembly.

Troubleshooting

If you experience issues related to the meter case becoming loose or unstable after installation, verify the following:

• Ensure the bracket is correctly positioned and aligned.
• Confirm the nut is securely seated within the bracket.
• Check that all fasteners (if any) are tightened appropriately.
• Verify that the correct part (Model 204616) was used for your specific appliance model.
