Levelling The Machine; Screwing Out And Adjusting The Feet - Miele W 853 Operating Manual

Levelling the machine

The machine must stand perfectly level
on all four feet to ensure safe and
proper operation.
Incorrect installation may increase elec-
tricity and water consumption and may
cause the machine to move about.
The four adjustable screw feet are used
to level the machine. All four feet are
screwed in when the machine is de-
livered.

Screwing out and adjusting the feet

Gently tip the machine and prop it
up using a solid wood wedge for
example, to ensure stability.
Make sure the machine does not
slip as this could cause injury.
With a screwdriver loosen and turn
the foot 1 together with the counter-
nut 2 to the left, (see illustration
below) and screw out.
Put the machine back on all four feet.
Use a spirit level to check the ma-
chine is standing level.
Hold the foot 1 firm using a pipe
wrench and turn the counternut 2 to
the right firmly up against the hous-
ing with a screwdriver.
All four counternuts must be firmly
up against the housing. Please also
check this for the feet which did not
need adjustment. Otherwise there is
the danger of the machine moving
about.
This machine is not intended for in-
tegrated installation or installation
under a continuous worktop. The
UBW kit cannot be used with slop-
ing facia machines.
