Leveling your washer
Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by
properly leveling the washer.
1 For free standing installation and with the washer
within 4 feet (1 m) of its nal location, place a level
on top of the washer.
2 Use adjustable pliers 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 movement. Adjust the appropriate
leg(s) so the washer sits solidly on the oor on
ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a
minimum for best performance of the washer.
1
Run some water from the hot and cold faucets to
ush the water lines and remove particles that might
clog the water valve screens and to determine which
faucet is hot and which is cold supply.
2
Remove the inlet hoses and rubber washers from the
plastic bag located in the drum of the washer and install
the rubber washers in each end of the inlet hoses.
