1.

Prepare dryer for leveling legs

To avoid damaging floor, use a large flat piece of cardboard

from dryer carton; place under entire back edge of dryer.

Firmly grasp dryer body (not console panel) and gently lay

dryer down on cardboard.

2.

Screw in leveling legs

Using a wrench and tape measure, screw legs into leg

holes until bottom of foot is approximately 1/2" (13 mm)

(to match height of 3.6 cu. ft. capacity washer) or 1½"

(38 mm) (to match height of 3.8 cu. ft. capacity washer)

from bottom of dryer.

Now stand the dryer on its legs. Slide the dryer until it is

close to its final location. Leave enough room for electrical

connection and to connect the exhaust vent.
