Level the washer
To ensure smooth operation the washer
must be level.
Failure to level the machine can result
in increased water and energy con-
sumption as well as the washer "bang-
ing" in the spin cycle or "walking"
across the floor during use.
Adjust the four leveling feet
The washer is levelled by adjusting the
four feet.
^
Tip the machine slightly and place a
support, such as a block of wood,
underneath it.
,
CAUTION: The washer is heavier
than it looks! When tipping the ma
-
chine be careful that it does not slip.
Take care not to injure yourself or
damage any surrounding furniture.
^
Unscrew each of the four feet as
much as necessary by turning both
the foot, 1, as well as the locking ring,
2, to the left using a screwdriver.
^ Remove the support and stand the
machine on its feet.
^ Check that the machine stands level.
^ Repeat this procedure until the ma-
chine stands level.
^ Once level, hold the foot, 1, immobile
with a wrench. At the same time turn
the locking ring, 2, to the right using
a screwdriver.
,
All four locking rings must be
tight against the bottom of the ma
-
chine. In addition, check to see that
the feet were not inadvertently un
-
screwed while tightening the rings.
Running a machine that is not level
or whose feet are not tight may
cause damage to both the machine
and its surrounding area.
