8 RRT 2008: Machine shipment Test Materials It is essential to keep all transportation bolts and the robust re-usa ble boxes provided for shipment. In case a machine breaks down during shi pment tests needs to be re-organized. Check machines o n arrival. Install machines according to the manual. Preparation of the washing machine after installation (according to IEC 60456) After installation, the test washing machine shall be run for two complete normalization runs on the programme with the maximum wash temperature set for the maximum water level possible, the first ru n without load and with 50 g of the reference detergent and the second run with out load and without detergent.
