Leveling your washer properly reduces excess noise and
vibration.
Remove cardboard from beneath
washer. Place a level on top edges of washer, checking each
side and front. If not level, tip washer and adjust feet up or
down as shown in steps 15 and 16, repeating as necessary.

If washer is not level, use a 1/2" (13 mm) open-end or
adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts clockwise on feet until
they are about 1/2" (13 mm) 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 that all four feet are firmly in contact with the floor.
Repeat as needed.
HELPFUL TIP:
You may want to prop up front of washer
about 4" (102 mm) with a wood block or similar object that
will support weight of washer.
