Install Leveling Legs
1.
To protect the floor, use a large, flat piece of cardboard from the dryer carton. Place
cardboard under the entire back edge of the dryer.
2.
Firmly grasp the body of the dryer (not the top or console panel). Gently lay the dryer on
the cardboard. See illustration.
3.
Examine the leveling legs. Find the diamond marking.
4.
Screw the legs into the leg holes by hand. Use a wrench to finish turning the legs until the
diamond marking is no longer visible.
5.
Place a carton corner post from dryer packaging under each of the 2 dryer back corners.
Stand the dryer up. Slide the dryer on the corner posts until it is close to its final location.
Leave enough room to connect the exhaust vent.
Connect Vent
1.
Using a 4" (10.2 cm) clamp, connect vent to exhaust outlet in dryer. If connecting to
existing vent, make sure the vent is clean. The dryer vent must fit over the dryer exhaust
outlet and inside the exhaust hood. Check that the vent is secured to exhaust hood with a
4" (10.2 cm) clamp.
2.
Move dryer into its final location. Do not crush or kink vent.
3.
(On gas models) Check that there are no kinks in the flexible gas line.
4.
Once the exhaust vent connection is made, remove the corner posts and cardboard.
Level Dryer
Check the levelness of the dryer by first placing a level on the top of the dryer near the
console.
Then, by placing a level in the crease on the side of the dryer between the top of the dryer and
the dryer cabinet, check the levelness from front to back.
If the dryer is not level, prop up the dryer using a wood block. Use a wrench to adjust the legs
up or down and check again for levelness.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install dryer.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
