Hello,
I converted from a mondern front loader to a Speed Queen AWN542 top load washer, which I love so far.
I've been using it for several months now and I thought I'd be satisfied with the factory water height, but having used it for a while I defintitely think the water height could be higher.
I already know how to adjust the height and I've adjusted it with cloths and when the washer is not running with clothes it's about 1.5 inches from rim lip where is tub starts to curve if this makes sense, my questions are:
Should water adjustmet be done with clothes or empty?
How high should the water go in the tub? I've seen a few video on youtube and most seem to say right below the lip before tub starts to curve inward, but this video shows the washer running empty and water fill stops about 3 inches from the lip, which is very similar to mine.
Lastly, I'm not really familiar with mechanics of the tub assembly and I'm worried if the water is too high as in right up to the botton of the lip that water will leak out of the water onto the floor when the agitation starts because the water will rise and splash around when it sloshes. Hope this make sense, I'm probably splitting hairs, but I want to get the most out of my washer.
Thanks for any help.
