Step 1: Leveling the dryer and installing the legs.
Tools needed:
 9/16” Socket
Wrench
 9/16” Wrench
Parts needed:
 Dryer Base
 8 x Lock Washers
1. Install a hex bolt into the “J” located on the leg,
which is on the pre-assembled base.
2. Thread a lock nut onto the other side of the bolt,
which is located inside of the dryer. Make sure the nut
is very loose, because the bolt has to be able to move
when the base is lied.
Repeat steps 1-2 for the other leg on the same side.
3. Using two people, li the dryer to expose the leg.
The bolt will fall to the very boom of the “J” where a
third person will ghten it. Use a 9/16” socket wrench
on the bolt and a 9/16” wrench on the nut.
The two people holding the dryer will connue holding
the same side up, so the third person can repeat steps
1 and 2 for the other leg on the same side.
 8 x Flat Washers
 12 x Hex Bolts (5/16-
18” x 3/4”)
 12 x Flange Nuts

Step 1 (Connued): Leveling the dryer.
4. With the side of the dryer sll lied, ghten the bolt
and nut for the other leg.
5. At this point, only one side of the dryer will be
leveled. Just like steps 1-2, insert a bolt and nut
loosely into the “J”.
6. With two people liing, let the bolt fall to the
boom of the “J” and the third person ghtens the nut
and bolt with a socket wrench and a wrench.
Insert the bolt and nut into the other side while the
dryer is sll lied. Tighten the last leg.
7. The dryer is leveled aer all four legs
have been ghtened. The bolt should be at
the boom of the “J”, just like in the photo
above.

the leg.
9. Tighten a 5/16” ange nut onto the other side of
the bolt located inside of the dryer. Tighten the bolt
and nut with a socket wrench and wrench. Repeat
steps 8-9 for the other side panel on the same leg.

hole below it.
3. Reinsert the hex bolt with a
lock washer and at washer
