Front Mobility Wheels and Leveling Legs

Removal

Warning

: Disconnect power to the refrigerator

prior to servicing the mobility wheel assembly. Also,

before moving the refrigerator from its installation,

make sure that the leveling legs are raised to

prevent damage to the flooring.

Remove any items from the Fresh Food

section.

Safely tilt the refrigerator back.

Remove the three 1/4 in. hex head screws

and remove the mobility assembly.

There are two adjustable legs attached to the

Mobility Wheel assembly. Turn CCW to remove, or

raise the refrigerator and turn CW to re-assemble or

adjust.

Base Pan

The Base Pan is the foundation for the machine

compartment and adds structural strength and

stability to the refrigerator cabinet. It also adds

mobility, and is used for water evaporation. The

base pan supports the following components:

• Compressor

•

Condenser/Condenser support

• Condenser fan assembly

• Wire harness

The base pan is fastened to the refrigerator cabinet

with two 3/8 in. hex head screws.

NOTE

: The base pan and rear mobility wheels are

not available for replacement.

For more information about machine compartment

components, refer to

Machine Compartment

section of this service guide.
