LEVELING
THE WASHER
The drum of your new washerspins at very high speeds.
To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement,
the floor must be a level, solid surface.
NOTE: Adjust the leveling feet only as far as necessary to level
the washer. Extending the leveling feet more than necessary
can cause the washer to vibrate.
NOTE: Before installing the washer, make

sure the floor is clean, dry and free of dust,
dirt, water and oils so the washer feet can
not slide easily. Leveling feet that can move
or slide on the floor can contribute to excess

vibration and noise due to poor contact
with the floor. See INSTALLATION OF
NON-SKID PADS below for more
information.
NOTE: If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow the
instructions provided with the drip pan and make sure the
leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even contact with the
pan. Use of drip pans and failure to properly level the machine
may result in increased vibration and noise during operation.
•All four leveling feet must rest solidly on the floor. Attempt to
rock the washer from corner to corner to make sure that all
four leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor.

1. Position the washer in the final location, taking special care
to not pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain lines. Place
a level across the top of the washer.

2. Loosen locknuts using the wrench on all 4 leveling feet until
you can turn the feet with the included wrench. Turning the
leveling foot clockwise lowers the foot and raises the washer;
turning the foot counterclockwise raises the foot and lowers
the washer. Raise or lower the leveling feet until the washer
is level from side to side and front to back. Make sure that all
4 leveling feet are in firm contact with the floor. Use a level
when adjusting the feet to make sure the washer is level.
NOTE: If you are installing the washer on the optional pedestal,
the washer leveling feet should be fully retracted. Use the
leveling feet on the pedestal to level the washer.
3. Once the washer is level from side to side and front to
back, use the adjusting wrench to tighten all four lock nuts
securely to prevent the legs from getting out of
adjustment during operation.
Make sure that all 4 leveling feet are in firm contact with
the floor.
NOTE: To make sure that the washer is properly level, run
the washer with a test load: place a medium-sized load of
laundry in the machine. Then press POWER, select RINSE
& SPIN, and then press the START/PAUSE button. See the
following sections for additional information on cycle
selection and operation. Verify that the washer does not
rock or vibrate excessively during the spin cycle. If the
washer vibrates or shakes, adjust the leveling feet, while the
washer is spinning, until the vibrations are reduced to a
minimum.
INSTALLATION
OF NON-SKID
PADS
(optional)
Some floor surfaces are too slippery to prevent the washer
from moving on the floor during heavily unbalanced loads.
While it is normal for an occasional load to be out of
balance, excess noise and vibration can result from the
washer moving out of position. If these conditions are
encountered, follow the instructions below for installation of
the non-skid pads. These pads will help prevent the washer
from moving during heavy out of balance conditions thereby
reducing noise and vibration.
