WARNING

Excessive Weight Hazard

Two or more people may be needed to install and
move the appliance and pedestal assembly.
Do not allow children to play on the drawer.
Do not step on the handle.

A firm, solid floor is even more critical to a front-loading
washer than to a top-loader. If your floor is wooden
and /or frame construction, you may need to reinforce
it. Front-loaders have substantially faster spin speed
than top-loaders, causing greater vibration. If the floor
is not solid, your washer will vibrate.

WASHER/COMBO INSTALLATION

Before installing the pedestal, remove foreign
objects on the floor clean the floor. Dust, water, oil,
detergent and so on could cause vibration due to
bad contact of legs with floor.

After the washer is leveled, tighten the lock nuts up
toward the base of the washer using the wrench. All
four lock nuts should be tightened.

Level the pedestal on the clean place by adjusting
the feet.

NOTE

If a drip pan must be used, take extra care to follow
the instructions provided with the drip pan and make
sure the leveling feet are adjusted for firm and even
contact with the pan. Use of drip pans and failure to
properly level the machine may result in increased
vibration and noise during operation.

NOTE

Do not extend the legs no more than necessary to
level the washer. The more the legs are extended, the
more the washer will vibrate.

NOTE

Because of the weight of the washer/combo, two or
more people may be needed.

NOTE

If the washer or combo was previously installed,
unplug it, disconnect the inlet hose (s)from the faucet
(s), disconnect the drain hose, and drain all hoses.

vibration may result.
