Follow these instructions to install the pedestal on a washer or dryer.
WARNING
Excessive Weight Hazard
Use two or more people to move and install pedestal.
Failure to do so can result in back or other injury.
1. To install a washer/dryer to the pedestal, first thread a locknut
onto each foot. Screw each locknut down to the rubber base
of the foot.
2. When all 4 locknuts are in place on the feet, screw a foot into
each corner brace of the pedestal. Adjust the feet so that the
rubber pads extend just below the bottom of the pedestal
and keep the pedestal at least ¹⁄₈" (3.175 mm) off the floor.
NOTE: For more stability, do not raise the bottom of the
pedestal any higher than necessary to clear the floor on all
four sides.
3. Set the pedestal in its final location.
4. Place a level on the pedestal to ensure that it is level from
front to back and side to side. If necessary, adjust the feet up
or down to level the pedestal.
5. Once it is level, use a ⁹⁄₁₆" (14 mm) open-ended wrench to
thread each locknut to the bottom of each corner brace.
Tighten until locked into place.
6. Place the washer/dryer on the pedestal as shown. The front
and side edges should line up.

7. To install the brackets, slide the open-ended portion of the
bracket over one of the washer/dryer's feet. Center the two

8. Slide the brackets directly up against the side of the pedestal.
9. Insert the carriage bolt through the slot in the mounting
bracket and the pedestal. Repeat this step for the other
brackets. Attach the self-locking nut on all carriage bolts. Use
a ⁷⁄₁₆" (11 mm) wrench to completely tighten the
self-locking nuts.
10. With the washer/dryer locked securely into place on the
pedestal, slide the washer/dryer and pedestal to their final
location.
11. Place a level on top of the washer/dryer and ensure that the
unit is level from front to back and side to side. If it is
necessary to adjust the washer/dryer feet to level the unit on
the pedestal, the brackets may need to be temporarily
loosened.
To adjust the washer/dryer feet:
Reach inside the pedestal and use a ⁷⁄₁₆" (11 mm)
open-ended wrench to loosen the locknut.
Adjust the washer/dryer feet up or down. Be sure to
completely tighten the brackets and locknuts again after
the washer/dryer is level.
12. Follow the Installation Instructions that came with your model
to finish installing or reinstalling your washer or dryer
(installing or reinstalling hoses, vents, etc.).
