Automatic Washers can
Automatic washers can be a
safety hazard although they’re
not as hazardous as a wringer
type washer, says June Wilke,
Chester County Extension home
economist, Chester County.
Ground automatic washers to
eliminate the danger of electric
shock. If laundry equipment is
located in the basement, a
greater hazard exists because the
concrete surface is in contact
with the earth. If you touch or
grasp a part of a defective ap
pliance while standing on the
ground and touch a water faucet
at the same time, your body
serves as a conductor. But, if the
machine is grounded, the current
goes into the ground and not
through you. If you feel even a
slight shock or tingle when using
a washer, take it out of service at
human id - 31.8 million pounds,
down 11 t cent.

million pi ds of milk (on a

Pose Safety Hazards
once and have it repaired, says
Miss Wilke.
You can ground the washer
through the outlet, or use a clamp
on water pipes by connecting the
clamp with a wire to a screw on
the washer. If the outlet is to
serve as a means of grounding,
see that it has been grounded at
the fuse box. If your house isn’t
wired with grounding-type
receptacles, have an electrician
install at least three—one in the
kitchen, one in laundry area, and
one in basement or shop.
Your life, or that of a member
of your family, may depend on
prompt action. Keep the washer
grounded to prevent any possible
accident since a defect in an
appliance can occur quickly.
Another safeguard is to keep
hands out of a washer in action. If
your machine isn’t equipped with
an automatic stop when the lid is
raised, turn off the washer before,
adjusting a load.
