leveling legs, so that the dryer will slide on the legs instead of the base frame.

Leveling Dryer

The dryer is equipped with four (4) leveling legs, one (1) at each corner of the base. Two (2) are located at the

rear of the dryer base, and two (2) are located in the lint chamber (coop). To increase bearing life and improve

efficiency, the dryer should be tilted slightly to the rear.
