Installation Instructions

Leveling your washer

Excessive noise and vibration can be prevented by properly leveling the washer.

1.With the washer within 4 feet (1 m) of its final location, place a level on top of the washer.

2.Use adjustable pliers to adjust the leveling legs so the washer is level front-to-rear and side-to-side, and stable corner-to-corner.

3.Press down on alternate corners and sides and feel for the slightest movement. Adjust the appropriate leg(s) so the washer sits solidly on the floor on ALL four legs. Keep the leveling leg extension at a minimum for best performance of the washer.

Connecting inlet water

1.Run some water from the hot and cold faucets to flush the water lines and remove particles that might clog the water valve screens and to determine which faucet is hot and which is cold supply.

2.Remove the inlet hoses and rubber washers from the plastic bag located in the drum of the washer and install the rubber washers in each end of the inlet hoses.
