Installation procedure

You can use the following steps to install your Stacking Kit Front Load Laundry (SKK-8MC):

1 Make sure the power cord is unplugged before starting. Place the dryer on a non-slippery floor, and then tilt the dryer onto its side.

3 Insert the stacking support guides into the rectangular holes located in the dryer’s base until you hear a clicking sound. You do not need to remove the legs.
4 Repeat the above step on the other side of the dryer.
5 Do not tighten the stacking kit screws completely. Instead, loosely fasten the two rear brackets to the rear of the washing machine using the provided screws and washers.
6 Lift and position the dryer, and then slide it backward until it makes contact with the rear brackets.
7 Align the rear brackets with the mounting holes on the rear of the dryer.
8 Loosely assemble the rear brackets onto the rear of the dryer using two screws.
9 Tighten the screws on the dryer’s side of the rear brackets, and then tighten the screws on the washing machine’s side.
10 Assemble the provided stacking bracket on the right side, and then assemble the rear bracket on the left side.
11 Open the connector port covers on both the washing machine and the dryer, connect the wire to both ports, and then close the covers. Do not pull on the wire.
12 Locate the holder wire that is pre-attached to the connection wire, and then attach the holder wire to both the washing machine and the dryer. Make sure the washer and dryer are securely connected.
