Leveling Washer
Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by
properly leveling the washer.
1. For free standing installation and with the washer in
it’s final position, place a level on top of the washer.
Adjust the leveling legs so the washer is level front-
to-rear and side-to-side, and stable corner-to-corner.
Press down on alternate corners and sides and feel
for the slightest movement. Adjust the appropriate
leg so the washer is SOLID on the floor on ALL four
legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a minimum
for best performance of the washer.
2. For pedestal installations, See additional installation
instructions included with the pedestal.
Connecting Inlet Water
1. Run some water from the hot and cold faucets
to flush the water lines and remove particles
that might clog the water valve screens and to
determine which faucet is hot and which is
cold supply.
2. Remove the inlet hoses and rubber washers from the
plastic bag located in the drum of the washer and
install the rubber washers in each end of the inlet
hoses.
3. Carefully connect the inlet hosemarked “HOT” to the
outside “H” outlet of the water valve. Tighten by
hand, then tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers.
Carefully connect the other inlet hose to the inside
“C” outlet of the water valve. Tighten by hand, then
tighten another 2/3 turn with pliers. Do not cross
thread or overtighten these connections.
4. Connect the inlet hose ends to the HOT and COLD
water faucets tightly by hand, then tighten another
2/3 turn with pliers. Turn the water on and check for
leaks.
