• Typical symptoms: rack is cracked/warped, won't sit securely, or you need to dry items flat

• 1 drying rack

• Unplug the dryer before installing
• Open the door and position the rack so the rear support engages at the back of the drum and the front rests in the door opening
• Ensure the rack is level and secure before loading items evenly
• Do not run standard tumbling cycles with the rack installed; remove it when finished

This 8-18 x 5/8-inch screw secures appliance panels, brackets, and covers. Replacing a missing or stripped fastener restores a tight fit and helps prevent vibration or loosening where this exact size is specified.

• Fastens sheet-metal or plastic components where a #8-18 x 5/8 screw is called for
• Helps maintain alignment and reduce rattling or vibration
• Replaces stripped, corroded, or missing screws of the same size
