Stacking Kit Installation

The weight of the appliance and the height of installation make this stacking procedure too risky for one person. Two or more people are required when installing the stacking kit.Place the washer on a solid, stable, level floor capable of supporting the weight of both appliances.Do not stack the washer on top of the dryer.If appliances are already installed, disconnect them from all power, water, and drainage connections.Place the appliance on the top of an LG front load washing machine.Remove the 1 screw from the bottom of the rear cover on each side.Align the hole in the bracket with the hole in the rear cover of the appliances.If using the 24″ (600 mm) top plate:If using the 21 7/8″ (550 mm) top plate:Use the 2 screws removed earlier to hold the stacking brackets in place on each side.Use the four 0.6″ (16 mm) screws provided in the accessory box to secure the brackets in place.

Installing the Optional Drain Hose

Normally, condensed water is pumped up to the water container where water is collected until manually emptied. It may be more convenient to drain water to an external drain, especially when the appliance is stacked on top of a washing machine.Use the connecting T piece to reroute the drainage as shown below.Remove the anti-backflow cap a and disconnect the water container hose b from the T piece.Attach the anti-backflow cap a to the top of the T piece and connect the optional drain hose c to the bottom of the T piece.If the drain hose is kinked or pinched, it will not drain properly.
