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

A shoulder screw that secures appliance components and provides a precise pivot or spacer point. Replaces a missing or worn screw to restore alignment, reduce rattling, and keep panels and assemblies securely in place. What it does:

• Handle small fasteners carefully to avoid dropping into assemblies; magnetic pickup tools can help.
• Start threads by hand to avoid cross-threading; tighten snugly but avoid overtightening.

This is a genuine lock nut replacement. This is a general piece of hardware that is often used on several types of lawn and garden equipment, including in engines, housing, and other areas. The exact application of this part will vary based on the unit. The lock nut is used to create a more secure seal than a standard nut. When properly secured, the lock nut tightens to a bolt and uses an extra locking washer with teeth to ensure a snug fit.If lock washers do get damaged or lost, they need to be replaced immediately with a genuine OEM replacement. This model is compatible with all types of machines and units since it is a generic part. The washer is sold as an individual part and manufactured by Whirlpool. Lock nuts will need to be installed using a socket wrench or adjustable wrench. Pliers, a screwdriver, or another socket wrench will be needed to hold the bolt while the lock nut is being secured in place. Be sure to thread the lock nut carefully to ensure a strong seal and avoid stripping the bolt or the nut.

This pressure regulator controls the appliance's gas flow to maintain stable burner performance and consistent flames. Use this replacement regulator to address pressure-related burner or ignition issues and help restore normal operation. What it does:

• Regulates incoming gas pressure to the oven/range burners for steady flame height and even heating.
• Helps maintain reliable ignition and consistent cooking temperatures.
• Commonly used when burners sputter, flame height is too high or too low, or ignition is intermittent.
• Works as the pressure-control component in the appliance's gas supply path.

• Turn off the appliance, shut off the gas supply, and disconnect power before servicing.
• Use proper fittings and thread sealant rated for gas; tighten connections to OEM torque specs if available.
• After installation, test all fittings for leaks with an approved method (soap solution or gas leak detector) and restore gas and power only when safe.
