Leveling
legs
1. Carefully
move the appliance
to its final location.
Gently
rock the appliance
into position.
It is important
not to
damage
the rubber
leveling
legs when moving your appli-
ance to its final location.
Damaged
legs can increase ap-
pliance
vibration.
It may be helpful
to spray window
cleaner
on the floor
to help move your appliance
to its fi-
nal position.
Note: Do not use the washer lid to lift the unit.
2. To ensure the appliance
is level and solid on all four legs,
tilt the appliance
forward
so the rear legs are off the
ground.
Gently
set the appliance
back down to allow the
rear legs to self adjust.
3. With
the appliance
in its final position,
place a level on
top of back part of the washer lid and check it side to
side, then check front to back. Screw the front leveling
legs
up or down to ensure the appliance
is resting solid on all
four legs (no rocking
or the appliance
should exist), turn
the lock nuts on each leg up toward
the base of the unit
and snug with a wrench.
Note: Keep the leg extension
at minimum
to prevent
exces-
sive vibration.
The farther
out legs are extended,
the more
the unit will vibrate.
CONNECTING
THE DRYER TO HOUSE VENT
RIGID METAL TRANSITION
DUCT
• For best drying
performance,
a rigid metal transition
duct is
recommended.
• Rigid metal
transitions
ducts reduce the risk of crushing
and
kinking.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL (SEMI-RIGID)
TRANSITION
DUCT
• If rigid metal duct cannot be used, then UL-listed
flexible
metal
(semi-rigid)
ducting
can be used (Kit WX08X10077).
• Never install flexible
metal duct in walls, ceilings, floors
or
other enclosed
spaces.
• For many applications,
installing
elbows at both the dryer
and the wall is highly recommended
(see illustrations).
El-
bows allow the appliance
to sit close to the wall without
kinking and or crushing the transition
duct, maximizing
dry-
ing performance.
• Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
UL-LISTED FLEXIBLE METAL (FOIL-TYPE)
TRANSITION
DUCT
• In special installations,
it may be necessary
to connect the
dryer to the house vent using a flexible
metal (foil-type)
duct. A UL-listed
flexible
metal (foil-type)
duct may be used
ONLY in installations
where rigid metal
or flexible
metal
(semi-rigid)
ducting
cannot
be used AND where a 4" diam-
eter can be maintained
throughout
the entire length of the
transition
duct.
• In Canada
and the United States, only the flexible
metal
(foil-type)
ducts that comply
with the "Outline
for Clothes
Dryer Transition
Duct Subject 2158A" shall be used.
• Total length of flexible
metal
duct should not exceed 8 feet
(2.4m).
• Avoid resting the duct on sharp objects.
• For best drying
performance:
1. Slide one end of the duct over the clothes dryer outlet
pipe.
2. Secure the duct with a clamp.
3. With the dryer in its permanent
position, extend the duct
to its full length. Allow
2" of duct to overlap
the exhaust
pipe. Cut off and remove excess duct. Keep the duct as
straight
as possible
for maximum
airflow.
4. Secure the duct to the exhaust pipe with the other clamp.
