INSTALL LEVELING LEGS

2. Screw in leveling legs

Models with riser:

Using a wrench, screw legs into cabinet until foot ange

touches the riser. Foot is fully installed when bottom of foot

is approximately 1/2" (13 mm) from bottom of the riser.

Models without riser:

Using a wrench and tape measure, screw legs into leg holes

until bottom of foot is approximately 1

" (35 mm) from

bottom of dryer.

Now stand the dryer on its legs. Slide the dryer until it is

close to its nal location. Leave enough room for electrical

connection and to connect the exhaust vent.

NOTE: Refer to Dryer Dimensions in the Location

Requirements.

Prepare dryer for leveling legs

To avoid damaging oor, use a large at piece of cardboard

from dryer carton; place under entire dryer. Firmly grasp

dryer body (not console panel) and gently lay dryer down

on cardboard.

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. Lay the dryer on its side if you do not

have the cardboard corner posts the dryer was packed with.

Connect gas supply to dryer

on threads of all non-ared male ttings. If exible metal

tubing is used, be sure there are no kinks.

NOTE: For LP gas connections, you must use pipe-joint

compound resistant to action of LP gas. Do not use
