Step 8: Leveling the Dishwasher
1. Open the door and place the level against the top of the
tub on the inside and check if the dishwasher is level. If it is
not level, rotate the leveling legs at the at the bottom front of
the dishwasher until the dishwasher is level. See the first note
below for instructions on adjusting the height of the front legs.
2. Use the level to check if the dishwasher is level front to
back, as shown in the figure to the right. If the dishwasher is
not level front to back, adjust the height of the rear leg until
the dishwasher is level. See the second note below for the
instructions on adjusting the rear leg.
3. Open the door of the dishwasher and check if both the tub
and door clearances are correct. If not, rotate the leveling
legs on the botton front of the dishwasher. You can also check
this by placing a level against the inside front vertical surface
of the tub.
installing the dishwasher
Note:
1. Before you move the dishwasher for installation, make sure to adjust the
height of the legs so the legs are as short as possible. This prevents the legs from
breaking. Level the dishwasher by adjusting the height of the legs after you have
the dishwasher in place.
2. When you prepare to move the dishwasher for installation, you should put your
hand under the basement, this prevents injury to your hand.
