furniture or residential appliances, without damaging floors.

BEFORE USING

1. Remove all loose objects on top or inside the item being moved.
2. Measure the overhead clearance
a. There should be at least 1-1 /2" of space between the top of the item
being moved and any overhead cabinets, fixtures or ceiling.
b. If less than 2"; see troubleshooting tips.
3. For appliances, remove drip pans, covers, grills or ornamentation.
4. If moving a refrigerator, remove the front bottom grill.
5. Shut off all gas or water going to the appliance and disconnect gas
tubing, water lines, and any other hoses or tubes.

7. Make sure both front and rear of appliance are at least 1/4" but no more
than 2" off the floor.
8. Slide the pads under the item being moved as far as they will go.
They should extend through the rear of the appliance by 4" for even
balance loading. Do not force them. If they do not slide freely, see
troubleshooting tips.
a. If having trouble moving item, slide white boards
underneath pads to help.
9. Position the pads as far distant from each other as possible, but no
closer than 2" from the side of the item being moved.
10. Plug the blower in to a grounded power source.

appliance or pads before turning blower off.
