Using two or more people, move dryer to desired installation

location.

them on the floor in back of the dryer. Firmly grasp the body

of the dryer and gently lay it on its back on the cardboard

corners.

4,

With one of the legs in hand, check the ridges for a diamond

marking.

That's how far the leg is supposed

to go into the

hole.

5,

Start to screw the leveling

legs into the holes by hand. (Use a

small amount of liquid detergent

to lubricate the screw

threads so it is easier to turn the legs.) Use a 1-inch wrench or

socket

wrench to finish turning the legs until you reach the

diamond

mark.

Now stand the dryer up.

or hardboard

from under dryer.

is hinged at the bottom.

3,

Open the shutoff

valve in the gas supply

leak-detection

solution.

Bubbles

any

leak found.

1,

Using a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp,

connect

vent to exhaust

outlet in

dryer. If connecting

to existing

vent, make sure the vent is

and inside the exhaust

hood.
