Using this Simpson suspension rod kit is easy. First, make sure your washer is turned off and unplugged. Remove the old suspension rods carefully from your Simpson washer (models like 22S750N, SWT704 etc.). Then, install the new rods. Remember, there are three blue - ended rods and one white - ended rod. Just place them in the right spots as per your washer's design. When it comes to maintenance, it's a good idea to check the rods every few months for any signs of wear or damage. If you notice any issues like cracks or excessive bending, it might be time to replace them. Also, keep the rods clean by gently wiping them with a dry cloth. That way, your washer will keep running smoothly for a long time.
