Level the washer

To ensure smooth operation, the washer
must be level.

Failure to level the machine can result
in increased water and energy
consumption, loud noise during the
spin cycle or "walking" across the floor
during use.

Adjust the four leveling feet

The washer is levelled by adjusting the
four feet:

^ Tip the machine slightly and place a

support, such as a block of wood,
underneath it.

^ Unscrew each of the four feet as

much as necessary by turning both
the foot,

1

, as well as the locking ring,

2

, to the left using a screwdriver.

,

CAUTION: The washer is

extremely heavy. When tipping the
machine, be careful that it does not
slip.

^ Turn the locking ring,

2,

counterclockwise with the enclosed
combination wrench. Unscrew each
of the four feet as much as necessary
by turning both the foot,

1

, as well as

the locking ring,

2

, to the left.

^ Check that the machine stands level.
^ Once level, hold the foot,

1

, immobile

with a wrench. Turn the locking ring,

2

, with the combination wrench

towards the machine.

,

All four locking rings must be

tight against the bottom of the
machine. In addition, check to see
that the feet were not inadvertently
unscrewed while tightening the
rings. Running a machine that is not
level or whose feet are not tight may
cause damage to both the machine
and its surrounding area.
