The displacement switch is located on the
right hand side of the outer tub assembly, be-
low the upper weight. The location of the
switch on the outer tub will activate the switch
whenever the outer tub assembly makes con-
tact with the wall of the cabinet. Should con-
tact with the cabinet occur before the machine
reaches 500 rpm, the machine control is
alerted and will reduce speed to implement a
redistribution program.
