16 INSTALLATION
Connecting the Drain Connector
1 Insert the included band clamps on to the
ends of the two drain hoses.
2 Connect the drain hose of the front-loading
washer and the pedestal washer to the drain
connector.
3 Insert the end of the drain hose connector
into the laundry tub or standpipe. Use the
band clamps to keep it in place, if needed.
NOTE
Depending on the installation environment, you
may have to purchase a separate drain hose
connector. The connector supplied will suit a
standard laundry tub-side standpipe.
Leveling the Washer
How to Level the Washer
1 Position the washer in its final location.
Take special care not to pinch, strain, or
crush the water and drain hoses. If you have
a carpenter’s level a, you can use it to
check that the washer is level. The slope
beneath the washer should not exceed 1/2",
and all 4 leveling feet must rest firmly on
the floor.
2 Adjust the leveling feet on the pedestal
washer.
Turn all 4 leveling feet in one direction to
raise the washer or the other direction to
lower it.
3 Check the level again.
Push or rock the top edges of the washer
gently to make sure the washer does not
rock. If the washer rocks, readjust the
leveling feet.
4 Tighten the locknuts b
Turn the locknuts counterclockwise and
tighten them when the washer is level.
Using Non-Skid Pads
If you install the washer on a slippery surface, it
may move because of excessive vibration.
Incorrect leveling may cause malfunction through
noise and vibration. If this occurs, install the non-
skid pads under the leveling feet and adjust the
level.
1 Clean the floor to attach the non-skid pads.
Use a dry rag to remove and clean foreign
objects or moisture. If moisture remains,
the non-skid pads may slip.
2 Adjust the level after placing the washer in the
installation area.
3 Place the adhesive side c of the non-skid pad
on the floor.
It is most effective to install the non-skid
pads under the front leveling feet. If it is
hard to place the pads under the front
