Installation Instructions
Leveling your washer
Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by
properly leveling the washer.
1. For free standing installation and with the washer
within 4 feet (1 m) of its fi nal location, place a level
on top of the washer.
2. Use the universal wrench to adjust the leveling
legs so the washer is level front-to-rear and side-
to-side, and stable corner-to-corner.
3. Press down on alternate corners and sides and
feel for the slightest movement. Adjust the appro-
priate leg(s) so the washer sits solidly on the fl oor
on ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension
at a minimum for best performance of the washer.
NOTE
For pedestal installations, see additional installation
instructions included with the pedestal.
NOTE
Hoses are not included with washer purchase. See
“Accessories” section for various inlet hose kits to fi t
your specifi c installation.
