INSTALL LEVELING LEGS
Prepare dryer for leveling legs
1.
Firmly grasp dryer body (not console panel) and gently lay
dryer down on back cardboard corner posts.
IMPORTANT:
If laying dryer on its back, use the cardboard
corner posts the dryer was packed with to avoid damaging
the back of the dryer.
Screw in leveling legs

Using a wrench and tape measure, screw leveling legs into
leg holes until bottom of foot is approximately 3/8" (9.5 mm)
from bottom of dryer.
Now stand the dryer on its feet. Slide the dryer until it is
close to its final location. Leave enough room to connect
the exhaust vent.
