Leveling your washer

Excessive noise and vibration can be pre-
vented by properly leveling the washer.
1. For free
standing
installation
and with the
washer within
4 feet (1 m) of
its final loca-
tion, place a level on top of the washer.
2. Use the universal wrench to adjust the
leveling legs so
the washer is
level front-to-
rear and side-
to-side, and
stable corner-
to-corner.
3. Press down
on alternate
corners and
sides and feel for the slightest move-
ment. Adjust the appropriate leg(s) so
the washer sits
solidly on the floor
on ALL four legs.
Keep the leveling
leg extension at a
minimum for best
performance of
the washer.
NOTE
For pedestal installations, see additional
installation instructions included with the
