PREPARATION iNSTRUCTiONS
Due to higher center of gravity of appliance
on ped-
estals, some side-to-side
rocking is normal during
operation.
Vibration
can be minimized
by assuring appliance
is installed
properly,
including
being level and solid on all four (4) legs by
following
these directions.
A) Preparing
washer or dryer for mount-
ing
on pedestal
1. If washer or dryer is new and has not been installed yet, skip to
step 4.
2. If dryer is already installed, disconnect dryer from electrical and
gas connections and exhaust venting.
3.
If washer is already installed, disconnect washer from electrical
connection. Turn off hot and cold water supply and disconnect
hot and cold water supply hoses from water supply outlets.
Disconnect drain hose from drain pipe.
4. If appliance has plastic feet, screw each foot flush to the base.
5. If appliance has metal feet, unscrew them, remove the locking
nut and reinstall the feet flush to the base.
If locking nuts are not removed on units with metal
feet, mounting
holes in appliance
will not align to mounting
holes in brackets.
B) Preparing
pedestal
before
mounting
washer or dryer
1. Locate pedestal to within a few inches of its final location.
DO NOT remove foal'
Allow for approximately
5 in. (12.5 cm) behind the
pedestal for clearance of back of washer or dryer to the wall.
Allow additional
space if venting
dryer upward
or downward.
2. Level the pedestal front-to-back and side-to-side by adjusting
each leveling leg. Keep leg extension to a minimum.
Optional
universal
wrench (or adjustable
pliers).
3. Rock the pedestal from comer-to-comer to check for stability.
Repeat leveling and rocking until all four (4) feet are sturdy on the
floor and pedestal is level.
4. Without turning the rubber foot, lock each pedestal leg in place
by tightening its lock nut tight against the pedestal base.
