Installation Instructions
Install Pedestal
Follow these instructions to install the pedestal on the washer
or dryer.
1. To install the washer or dryer onto the pedestal, rst 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 oor.
NOTE: For more stability, do not raise the bottom of the
pedestal any higher than necessary to clear the oor on all
four sides.
3. Set the pedestal in its nal 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 end wrench
to thread each locknut to the bottom of each corner brace.
Tighten until locked into place.
6. Place the washer or 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 feet of the washer or dryer. Center
the two prongs of the bracket on top of the foot. Repeat this
step with the other three brackets and feet. Use one bracket
on each of the four feet to properly secure the washer or
dryer to the pedestal.
8. Slide the brackets directly 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) open end wrench to completely
tighten the self-locking nuts.
10. With the washer or dryer locked securely into place
on the pedestal, slide the washer or dryer and pedestal
to their nal location.
11. Place a level on top of the washer or dryer and ensure
that it is level from front to back and side to side. If it is
necessary to adjust the washer or dryer feet to level it
on the pedestal, the brackets may need to be temporarily
loosened.
To adjust the washer or dryer feet:
n Reach inside the pedestal and use a
7
⁄16" (11 mm)
open end wrench to loosen the locknut.
n Adjust the washer or dryer feet up or down. Be sure
to completely tighten the brackets and locknuts again
after the washer or dryer is level.
