INSTALLING THE WASHER
7. With the washer in its final
position, place a level on top
of the washer (if the washer
is installed under a counter,
the washer should not be
able to rock). Adjust the front
leveling legs up or down to
ensure the washer is resting
solidly. Turn the lock nuts on each leg
up toward the base of the washer
and snug with a wrench.
NOTE: Keep the leg extension at
a minimum to prevent excessive
vibration. The farther out the legs
are extended, the more the washer
will vibrate.
If the floor is not level or is damaged,
you may have to extend the rear
leveling legs.
8. Attach U-shaped hose guide to the end of the drain
hose. Place the hose in a laundry tub or standpipe and
secure it with the cable tie provided in the enclosure
package.
NOTE: Placing the drain hose too far down the drain pipe
can cause a siphoning action. No more than 7 inches of hose
should be in the drain pipe. There must be an air gap around
the drain hose. A snug fit can cause a siphoning action.
