18 INSTALLATION 2 Insert the end of the drain hose connector into the standpipe. Leveling the Appliance The tub of the washer spins at very high speeds. To minimize vibration, noise, and unwanted movement, the floor must be a level, solid surface. The slope beneath the washer should not exceed 1 inch, and all four leveling feet must rest firmly on the floor. 3 Use a tie strap to secure the drain hoses in place. Option 2: Laundry Tub 1 Clip the hoses above the drain hose connector into the elbow bracket. Connect the elbow bracket within 4 inches (10 cm) of the end of the drain hose. If the drain hose is extended more than 4 inches (10 cm) beyond the end of the elbow bracket, mold or microorganisms could spread to the inside of the washer. Elbow bracket WARNING ••To prevent the washer from tipping over, always move stacked machines from the bottom, not the top. 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 ••Before installing the washer, make sure that the floor is clean, dry and free of dust, dirt, water and oil so the washer feet cannot slide easily. Feet that move or slide on the floor can contribute to excessive vibration and noise due to poor contact with the floor. 1 Position the washer in its final location. Take special care not to pinch, strain, or crush the water and drain lines. If you have a carpenter's level, you can place it across the top of the washer.
