Default The Shaking Washing Machine

New huh, Make sure all the packing materials and shipping bolts have been
removed. See the manual for where to look.

Level the rear first then adjust the front legs last. Put the level on all
4 edges and both diagonals.

If all else fails, wash fewer clothes. If it is unbalanced with a very
small load, there is more than just the last degree of leveling going on.
Call the service hotline.

I just bought a brand new washing machine (Whirlpool GSW9800P) and I'm
having a hard time getting it balanced. It's sitting on a linoleum
floor and every time it goes into its spin cycle it starts to shake,
rattle and move across the floor. I've tried adjusting the front legs
repeatedly, but it's just not doing the trick (either that, or I just
haven't found the magically height). Any suggestions on what I can
do/try?

Thanks.
