Leveling the washer
To ensure smooth operation the washer
must be level.
Failure to level the machine can result
in increased water and energy
consumption, loud noises during the
spin cycle or "walking" across the floor
during use.
Adjust the four leveling feet
The washer is leveled by adjusting the
four feet. The machine is delivered with
all four feet completely screwed in.
^
Tip the machine slightly and place a
support, such as a block of wood,
underneath it.
,
CAUTION: The washer is
extremely heavy. When tipping the
machine be careful that it does not
slip.
^
Loosen the locking ring,
2
, with the
supplied wrench.
^
Unscrew each of the four feet as
much as necessary by turning both
the foot,
1
, and locking ring,
2
, to the
left.
^
Remove the support and stand the
machine on its feet.
^
Check that the machine stands level.
^
Repeat the above procedure until the
machine 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
another wrench.
,
All four locking rings must be
tight against the bottom of the
machine. In addition, check to see
that the feet were not inadvertently
unscrewed while tightening the
rings. Operating a machine that is
not level or whose feet are not tight
may cause damage to both the
machine and its surroundings.
