self-adjusting
rear feet click into place, Lower the laundry
center to the floor. Check the levelness of the laundry center
with a level as shown above.
If laundry center will not level, recheck rear leveling legs for
free movement as described in the "Install Leveling Legs"
section. Repeat until the laundry center is level.
NOTE: It may be necessary to level the laundry center again
after it is moved into its final location.
After the laundry center is in the final location and level, use
an adjustable or open-end wrench to turn the nuts on the
front feet tightly against the washer cabinet.
