  1. Place a level on the top of the washer to determine if the machine is level both front to back and side to side.

  2. Lean the washer back, then place a wood block under the front of the washer to prop it up.

  3. Rotate the leveling leg or legs clockwise to raise the washer and counterclockwise to lower the washer, depending on the adjustment needed.
