Step 5: Position and Level the Washer

Position washer so it has sufficient clearance for
installation and servicing.
Place washer in position on a clean, dry and
reasonably firm floor. Installing the washer on any
type of carpeting is not recommended.
For easier access to leveling legs, prop up washer with
a wooden block. Refer to Figure 11. Place rubber feet
(supplied in accessories bag) on all four leveling legs.
Refer to Figure 12.
Place a level on the cabinet top and check if the washer
is level from side to side and front to back.
If washer is not level, tilt washer back to access the
front leveling legs. Loosen the locknuts and adjust legs
by screwing into or out of washer base.
Once adjusted, tilt the washer forward on front legs
and lower back down into position to set the rear self-
leveling legs.
Make sure that the washer does not rock. When washer
is level and does not rock, tighten locknuts securely
against bottom of washer base. If these locknuts are
not tight, washer will not remain stationary during
operation.
Improper installation or flexing of a weak floor will
cause excessive vibration.
Do not slide washer across floor once the leveling legs
have been extended. Legs and base could become
damaged.
Verify that washer does not rock.
