LEVEL WASHER
IMPORTANT: Level washer properly to reduce excess noise
and vibration.
If washer is not level, use a 14 mm or 9/16" open-end or
adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts clockwise on feet until they
are about 13 mm (1/2") from the washer cabinet. Then turn the
leveling foot clockwise to lower the washer or counterclockwise
to raise the washer. Recheck levelness of washer and repeat
as needed.
HELPFUL TIP:
You may want to prop up front of washer
about 102 mm (4") with a wood block or similar object that
will support weight of washer.
With washer in its final location, place a level on top edges of
washer. Use side seam as a guide to check levelness of sides.
Check levelness of front using lid, as shown. Rock washer
back and forth to make sure all four feet make solid contact
with floor. If washer is level, skip to step 16.
When washer is level, use a 14 mm or 9/16" open-end or
adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts counterclockwise on
leveling feet tightly against washer cabinet.
HELPFUL TIP: You may want to prop washer with
wooden block.
