PREPARATION iNSTRUCTiONS

Due to higher center of gravity of appliance on ped-

estals, some side-to-side rocking is normal during operation. Vibration can be minimized by assuring appliance is installed

properly, including being level and solid on all four (4) legs by following these directions.

A) Preparing washer or dryer for mount-

ing on pedestal

1. If washer or dryer is new and has not been installed yet, skip to step 4.

2. If dryer is already installed, disconnect dryer from electrical and gas connections and exhaust venting.

If washer is already installed, disconnect washer from electrical

connection. Turn off hot and cold water supply and disconnect

hot and cold water supply hoses from water supply outlets. Disconnect drain hose from drain pipe.

4. If appliance has plastic feet, screw each foot flush to the base.

5. If appliance has metal feet, unscrew them, remove the locking

nut and reinstall the feet flush to the base.

Level the pedestal front-to-back and side-to-side by adjusting

each leveling leg. Keep eg extension to a minimum.

If locking nuts are not removed on units with metal

feet, mounting holes in appliance will not align to mounting holes in brackets.

B) Preparing pedestal before mounting

washer or dryer

1. Locate pedestal to within a few inches of its final location.

Allow for approximately 5 in. (12.5 cm) behind the pedestal for clearance of back of washer or dryer to the wall. Allow additional space if venting dryer upward or downward.

Rock the pedestal from comer-to-comer to check for stability. Repeat leveling and rocking until all four (4) feet are sturdy on the

floor and pedestal is level.

Without turning the rubber foot, lock each pedestal leg in place

by tightening its lock nut tight against the pedestal base.
