Location Requirements
Before Installing Your Pedestal
IMPORTANT: If your washer and dryer are already installed, they must be uninstalled.
If you need to uninstall your washer or dryer, see the Installation Instructions that came with your model for tools required.
Uninstalling Your Washer
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard Use two or more people to move and uninstall washer. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. Unplug the power supply cord.
2. Turn off the hot and cold water faucets.
3. Slowly loosen the fill hoses at the faucets to relieve the water
pressure. Use a sponge or towel to absorb the released water.
4. Pull the washer away from the wall so the pedestal can be
placed in its final location.
Uninstalling Your Electric Dryer
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard Use two or more people to move and uninstall dryer. Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
WARNING
Explosion Hazard
Keep flammable materials and vapors, such as gasoline, away from dryer.
Place dryer at least 18 inches (46 cm) above the floor for a garage installation.
Failure to do so can result in death, explosion, or fire.
If dryer and pedestal assembly is located in a garage, 6" (15.2 cm) must be added under pedestal so that the dryer is 18" (46 cm) above garage floor. A separate riser, able to support at least 275 lbs 124.7 kg), may be required. The entire pedestal must sit completely on the riser.
1. Unplug dryer or disconnect power.
2. Pull the dryer away from the wall enough to loosen the vent
clamp. Loosen the clamp and slowly remove the exhaust vent from the dryer exhaust outlet.
3. Pull the dryer away from the wall so the pedestal can be
placed in its final location.
