Parts for Jenn-Air JGS8850BDS: 06 - Oven / Base Parts

This leveling leg screw threads into the appliance base to raise or lower the chassis, helping you stabilize the unit on uneven floors. Replace a missing, bent, or stripped screw to restore solid, level footing.

• Provides fine height adjustment when paired with the leveling leg/bracket
• Helps eliminate rocking, rattling, or vibration caused by an unlevel appliance
• Restores adjustability when original screw is stripped, bent, or missing
• Helps maintain proper alignment with cabinets/countertops by keeping the unit level

• Disconnect power; for gas units, shut off the gas supply before beginning
• Pull the appliance forward and carefully lift or tip to access the leveling hardware—use a helper to prevent tipping
• Remove the old screw; start the new screw by hand to avoid cross-threading, then adjust height with a wrench until level
• Verify all corners contact the floor and recheck level after repositioning the appliance
