• The floor
must be strong and rigid enough
to support
the
weight
of the washer,
when
fully loaded,
without
flexing
or bouncing.
If your floor
has too much flex,
you may need to reinforce
it to make it more rigid
A floor
that is adequate
for a topdoading
washer
may not
be rigid enough
for a front
loading washer,
due to the
difference
in the spin speed
and direction
if the floor
is
not solid, your washer
may vibrate
and you may hear and
feel the vibration
throughout
your
house.
• Before
installing
the washer,
make sure the floor
is clean
dry and free
of dust, dirt, water
and oils so the washer
feet can not slide easily.
Leveling
feet
that can move or
s]ide on the floor
can contribute
to excess
vibration
and
noise due to poor contact
with the floor
• If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow
the
instructions
provided
with the drip pan and make sure
the leveling
feet are adjusted
for firm and even contact
with the pan
Use of drip pans and failure
to properly
level the machine
may result
in increased
vibration
and
noise during operation
