Level the Washer
One washer foot has been installed at a different height on your new washer. The other three
feet were preset at the factory. Properly leveling your washer will minimize noise and
vibration.
1. Slide the washer to its final location.
2. Push on upper front panel to be sure the washer is on its rear feet.
3. Lower right front foot until it contacts the floor. By hand, firmly rotate foot as much as an
additional 1½ turns. The other three feet have been preset at the factory.
4. Check the levelness of the washer by first placing a level on the lid near the console.
Next, place the level on the side of the washer in the crease between the top of the
washer and the cabinet.
Level the front.
Level the side.
5. If the washer is not level, move the washer out slightly, tip back, prop up the front of the
washer on a wood block. Adjust the feet up or down as necessary by twisting the feet.
Repeat steps 1 through 4 until washer is level.
6. Use a ⁹/₁₆" or 14 mm open-end wrench to turn the locknut counterclockwise on the foot
tightly against the washer cabinet.
IMPORTANT: If the locknut is not tight against the washer cabinet, the washer may
vibrate.
