LEVELING
Leveling Stacked Washer/Dryer
Leveling your Washer/Dryer properly reduces excess noise and
vibration.
1. Remove cardboard from beneath Washer/Dryer. Place a
level on top edges of Washer/Dryer, checking each side and
front. If not level, tip Washer/Dryer and adjust feet up or
down as shown in Steps 3 and 4, repeating as necessary.
Not Level
2. Grip Washer/Dryer from top and rock back and forth, making
sure all four feet are firmly on floor. Repeat, rocking
Washer/Dryer from side to side. If Washer/Dryer rocks, go to
Step 3 and adjust leveling feet. If all four feet are in firm
contact with floor, go to Step 4.

3. If Washer/Dryer is not level, use a 14 mm or 9/16" open-
end or adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts clockwise (as
viewed from above) on feet until they are about 13 mm (1/2")
from the Washer/Dryer cabinet. Then turn the leveling foot
counterclockwise to lower the Washer/Dryer or clockwise
to raise the Washer/Dryer. Recheck levelness of Washer/
Dryer and that all four feet are firmly in contact with the floor.
Repeat as needed.
HELPFUL TIP: You may want to prop up front of Washer/
Dryer about 102 mm (4") with a wood block or similar object
that will support weight of Washer/Dryer.

Dryer cabinet.
