INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Levelling the machine

To ensure smooth operation, it is essen- tial that the machine is level.

Failure to level the machine can result in the machine “banging” in the spin cycle or “walking” across the floor dur- ing operaton. Energy and water use will also increase.

Adjust the four leveling feet as fol- lows:

Loosen the conternuts (item #2) on all four legs by moving the handle of the screwdriver to the left (see illustration). Adjust the right rear leg to the proper length. Use the screwdriver to turn the counternut up until it is tight against the bottom tray.

Move the machine to its location.

BEWARE: The washing machine is heavier than it looks! When working with the machine, be careful that it does not slip or slide along the floor. Take care not to injure yourself or damage any surrounding furniture.

Shorten the front left leg so the ma- chine is standing on the other three legs only. Push the top front left cor- ner diagonally to ensure that the right rear leg is resting on the floor.

Check with a level in both planes as shown in the illustration.

To tilt the machine toward the back, extend the right front leg by turning the leg to the left (see item #1).

To tilt sideways, shorten or extend the left rear leg.

Check with a level again in both planes. If still not level, repeat the ad- justment.

When the position is correct, use the screwdriver (move the handle to the right) to turn the counternuts up on the right front and left rear legs until they are tight.

Extend the left front leg until it is in contact with the floor. Add 1/2 turn ro- tation.
