Level the Washer
Properly leveling your washer prevents 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 (2” x 4”) and ad-
just the feet as necessary; then prop the back and
adjust feet as necessary. Repeat this step until washer
is level.
2. After the washer is level, use a 5/8 in. (17 mm)
open-end wrench to turn the nuts on the feet tightly
against the washer cabinet. All 4 feet must be tight-
ened. If the nuts are not tight against the washer
cabinet, the washer may vibrate.
3. Slide the washer to its final location.
4. Confirm the levelness of the washer.

2. Check to be sure all parts are now installed. If
