Level dryer

Dryer must be level to reduce noise and
assure proper performance.

Slide dryer onto cardboard or hardboard
before moving across floor to prevent floor
damage.

1. 

Move dryer close to its permanent

location. Leave enough room to connect
exhaust vent. Remove cardboard or hardboard
from under dryer.

2. 

Check levelness of dryer by placing a

level on top of dryer, first side to side, then
front to back. If dryer is not level, adjust dryer
legs up or down. 

If legs are not long enough to level dryer,
order Extended Dryer Feet Kit, Part No.
279810 (sold two legs per kit), from your
dealer.

Using a 4" clamp, connect exhaust

vent to exhaust outlet in dryer. If connecting
to existing exhaust vent, make sure the vent
is clean. The dryer exhaust vent 

must

fit over

the dryer exhaust outlet and inside the
exhaust hood.

Make sure exhaust vent is secured to exhaust
hood with a 4" clamp.
