Why is my washer leaking water?

Check that the fill hoses are tight and that the fill hose washers are properly seated, and verify the drain hose clamp is properly installed. Also check whether the sink or standpipe is clogged — it must be able to handle 17 gallons (64 L) of water per minute. Additionally, ensure the wash load is balanced and not overloaded, and that the washer is level, as water can deflect off an unbalanced load. (Page 6)
