Question:

How to level the dryer's pedestal?

 

Answer:

To level the pedestal for your dryer, follow these steps:

Ensure all bolts connecting the dryer and pedestal are securely fastened using a 11/16" socket wrench.

Check if the bolts are tight enough. If not, continue tightening until there is no further movement (excessive vibration may occur if bolts are loose).

Loosen the lock nut by turning it clockwise.

Adjust the pedestal legs manually to level the pedestal.

Tighten the lock nut against the bottom plate by turning it counterclockwise to secure the adjustments.

For best results, place the pedestal legs on the middle of the panel, avoiding seams.
