Models with riser
Models with riser:
Using a wrench, screw legs into cabinet until foot flange touches
the riser. Foot is fully installed when bottom of foot
is approximately 1/2" (13 mm) from bottom of the riser.
Models without riser:
Using a wrench and tape measure, screw legs into leg holes
until bottom of foot is approximately 1
bottom of dryer.
Now stand the dryer on its legs. Slide the dryer until it is
close to its final location. Leave enough room for electrical
