Level the Washer

Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise and
vibration.
1. Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the
top edge of the washer, first side to side, then front to back.
If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly
before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the
front with a wood block and adjust the feet as necessary;
then prop the back and adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this
step until washer is level.
2. Make sure all four feet are stable and resting on the floor.
Then check that the washer is level (use a level).
3. After the washer is level, use a 9/16" open-end wrench to turn
the nuts on the feet tightly against the washer cabinet.
IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tightened. If the nuts are
not tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.
4. The washer should not move front to back, side to side, or
diagonally when pushed on its top edges.
5. Slide the washer to its final location.
6. Confirm the levelness of the washer.

Installing Pad Strips

NOTE: For PD Models only.
1. Take the 2 foam pad strips from bag.
2. Remove the tape from the back of the adhesive pads.
3. Install the pads on the left and right inside walls of the coin
vault, leaving about 1/4 to 1/2 inch of space near the front
edge of the vault to allow room for the coin box to lock into
position.
