Always take account of the possible differing thickness of the furniture fronts which are to be fitted subsequently.
The height-adjustable feet at the front and rear can all be adjusted from the front.
Front:with open-ended wrench 1/2" (SW13) Rear:with 5/16" (8 mm) hex nut driver via flexible shaft.
A mark is attached to the appliance base and is used as
a standard gage for height adjustment. When adjusting the height, align this mark at a height of 11/2" (32 mm) above the floor.
̈Unscrew the height-adjustable feet until the mark on
the base has reached the indicated guide dimension (11/4" / 32 mm).
NOTE
It is very important to comply with this dimension for the subsequent alignment of the furniture fronts.
̈Align the furniture fronts with the spirit level.
