Properly leveling your washer avoids excessive noise
and vibration.
1. Check the levelness of the washer by placing a level on the top
edge of the washer, first side to side, then front to back.
If the washer is against a wall, move the washer out slightly
before tipping back. If the washer is not level, first prop the
front with a wood block and adjust the feet as necessary; then,
prop the back and adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this step
until washer is level.
2. Make sure all four feet are stable and resting on the floor.
Then check that the washer is perfectly level (use a level).
3. After the washer is level, use a
nuts on the feet tightly against the washer cabinet.
IMPORTANT: All four feet must be tightened. If the nuts are not
tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may vibrate.
4. The washer should not move front to back, side to side,
or diagonally when pushed on its top edges.
5. Slide the washer to its final location.
6. Confirm the levelness of the washer.
