INSTALLATION
Leveling the 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.
