Final Installation Steps

Level Washer/Dryer

IMPORTANT: Level washer/dryer properly to reduce excess
noise and vibration.
1.
Check levelness of washer/dryer
Place level here
With washer/dryer in its final location, place a level on top edges
of washer/dryer. Use side seam as a guide to check levelness of
sides. Check levelness of front using lid, as shown. Rock washer/
dryer back and forth to make sure all four feet make solid contact
with floor. If washer/dryer is level, skip to step 3 (24" (69 cm)
models) or "Install Anti-Tip Brackets" (27" (69 cm) models).

2.
Adjust leveling feet (24" (69 cm)
model shown)
Jam nut
If washer/dryer is not level, prop up front of washer/dryer
about 4" (102 mm) with a wood block or similar object that
will support weight of washer/dryer.
On 24" (61 cm) models, use a 9/16" or 14 mm open-end or
adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts clockwise on feet until they
are about 1/2" (13 mm) from the washer/dryer cabinet. Then
turn the leveling foot clockwise to lower the washer/dryer
or counterclockwise to raise the washer/dryer.
On 27" (69 cm) models, adjust the feet up or down as necessary.
On all models, remove wood block and lower washer/dryer.
Recheck levelness of washer/dryer and repeat as needed.

Jam nut
When washer/dryer is level, use a 9/16" or 14 mm open-end
or adjustable wrench to turn jam nuts counterclockwise on
leveling feet tightly against washer/dryer cabinet.
HELPFUL TIP: You may want to prop washer/dryer with
a wooden block.
Install Anti-Tip Brackets
(27" (69 cm) Models Only)
1.
Attach anti-tip brackets
IMPORTANT: The anti-tip brackets must be installed
on 27" (69 cm) models to avoid possible tipping backward
of the washer/dryer.
With the washer/dryer in its final location, place anti-tip
brackets at the lower left and lower right corners of the rear of
the washer/dryer, aligning the screw holes in the brackets with
the perforations in the cabinet, as shown.
Insert two of the provided screws in the top left and bottom
holes in the left-hand bracket with a 1/4" (6.5 mm) nut driver
or socket wrench and secure tightly to the washer/dryer
cabinet. Repeat for the right-hand bracket using the top right
and bottom holes.
