6 technician insights for the this appliance

Lower the adjustable legs before pulling out the dishwasher

When pulling out or laying the dishwasher down for service, it may be necessary to lower the height of the adjustable legs to provide clearance for removal. This prevents breaking the legs or damaging the base of the unit.

Steel plates on the frame are sharp — always wear gloves

When removing the bracket front lower or other steel frame components, make sure to wear gloves. The steel plate is sharp and may cut you. This applies to all frame and bracket removal steps.

Wear gloves when removing the lower front bracket — sharp steel

Make sure to wear gloves when removing the bracket front lower (lower front crosspiece). The steel plate is sharp and may cut you. The guide wire is attached with hooks — use needle nose pliers or a flat screwdriver to remove them.

Glide Rail Reassembly

When reinstalling glide rails on LUDP8997**, LDT7797**, LDP6797**, LSDF9897**, LDT7808**, LSDT9908**, the rail must click fully into both front and rear hooks — pull firmly on the rail to confirm engagement. If not fully seated, the rail will come apart during customer use. Slide the rack back and forth several times to confirm easy movement before closing the call.
