Remove Shipping Strap Install Leveling Legs To avoid floor damage, set washer/dryer onto cardboard before moving across floor. Move washer/dryer close to its final location. 1. Remove strap, hang tag, and pin 1. Prepare to install leveling feet 1" (25 mm) Do not cut yellow strap. Pull yellow strap firmly, until completely removed from washer/dryer. There should be 2 cotter pins on the end of the shipping strap. Remove the hang tag and pin from the vent pipe. 2. Check rear leveling legs Prop up the front of the washer/dryer about 4" (102 mm) with a wood block or similar object that will support the weight of the washer/dryer. Then screw the locknut onto each foot to within 1" (25 mm) of the foot base. 2. Install front leveling feet Tilt the washer/dryer forward. Move each of the 2 rear legs in an up-down motion to check the self-adjusting leveling legs for free movement. This is required for proper leveling. Gently lower the washer/dryer to the floor. 3. Cut shipping strap Screw the feet into the threaded holes at the front corners of the washer/dryer until the jam nuts touch the washer. NOTE: Do not tighten the nuts until the washer/dryer is level. Tilt the washer/dryer back and remove the wood block. Gently lower the washer/dryer to the floor. CUT HERE Cut the shipping strap about 16" (406 mm) from the plug end. Look for the words "CUT HERE." Discard end with cotter pins. You will use the remaining piece of shipping strap to secure the drain hose. 10
