Chainsaw, no seriously the dryer is bolted to the washer and not all of them can be unstacked. Remove the front panel of the dryer to expose the bolts holding it down. this only works if your washer is of the front loading type. if it is a top loader there should be some sort of frame the dryer is bolted to. after removing the dryer from a front load stack washer, the washer may or may not have a top panel on it

SOURCE: How to unstack a dryer

I have a Kenmore 417.69042990 stackable dryer and had a similar problem. To unstack it, in the front of the dryer there are two screws that are covered by round caps. They are easy to miss unless you look for them. Remove the caps, and the screws underneath it. Now, voila, you can lift the front of the dryer and pull as to unlock it from the two brackets in the rear of the dryer. Hope this helps... I took me and my husband over an hour to figure this out...

How do you unstack a Bosch Axxis WTA dryer from a Bosch Axxis WFL 2050 washer?
You do not state the type of stacking kit installed on your Bosch washer. The installation instructions of one of the stacking kits is found at the site Assemby Instructions Bosch Axxis Stacking Kit /WTZ11310.pdf . First remove the front concealment strip to expose the front of the mounting kit. Gently pry with a wooden tool to prevent damage. Once the it is exposed, there are two clip inserts in front of the dryer feet that must be removed. Once these are removed, you pull or slide the dryer forward to release them from the stacking kit and simply lift the dryer off of the stacking kit and the washer. The stacking kit itself is attached to the washing machine with four screws that must be removed to separate the kit from the washer top. And with that, your dryer and washer are separated!

But after separation there are two additional problems that may be bothersome to you. The first is that you now have mounting holes in the top of the washer that are exposed and the second is that the feet on your dryer may need to be replaced as parts of the feet may have been tossed during installation of the stacking kit and may need to be replaced.

The assembly instructions above show only the basic stacking kit. Some kits included a slide that pulls out to allow for a handy tray but the installation or disassembly is nearly the same.

Typically stacked washers and dry are attached with a bracket in the back of the machine. Pull your machine out and you should see the brackets. Undo the screws and the dryer should lift off the washer.

Thanks I thought it might be the inlet valve, but to get access to it behind the top panel, Is there a trick to removing the panel? I have removed the three screws behind the detergent drawer but the panel...
Hi, you will need to unstack the dryer unfortunately, then remove the three screws at the back of the top washer panel and it will slide back about 2 or 3cm and up away from the unit. Then you will see how to remove the valve. Hope that answers your question. Thanks for visiting "fixya". Let me know if you require any further assistance and good luck. Macmarkus :)

The gasket is torn
Hello. The seal swap isn't too difficult. You may have to unstack. If the washer is on the bottom, you may be able to scoot the dryer back enough to make the repair, but the washer case is like a cabinet; each part depends on the other parts for rigidity. For this reason alone, it would be much safer without several hundred pounds above your head. I'd unstack. That said: You can certainly diy. Unplug the washer. With the door open, look at the bottom of the seal. You'll see a ring clamp. Loosen the screw and remove the clamp. Peel the seal inward. It is easier to complete the seal swap with the front off. Remove the door and set aside. Locate the screws for the front of the machine and remove them, gaining access to the seal. Youcan either set the door to the side with the door lock wires still attached, or unclip them, which is easier. With the seal folded inward, you will likely find another clamp at the bottom. Loosen this as well. Remove the seal and replace with the new one, making sure to orient it like the old one was, and fold it to the inside like you had the old one for removal. Replace the front panel. Complete the seal installation, being careful to make sure that the clamp removed earlier gets put back in the groove and seats well. Reinstall the door. Best Regards, --W/D--

F21, 5d, and now not working
I had to call the Whirlpool service man. He came and concluded that the control panel was the culprit. He said it could be that the contacts were bad, but he didn't want to unstack the washer/dryer (dryer is on top of washer) to check it. He was suppose to call me to day with a price for another control. I'm just going to go and buy another machine. Can you recommend a reliable front loading washer?

Thanks for all your help!!!

Over-oiled Hunter Original ceiling fan When I tried to I oil one of my Hunter Original fans for the first time, I obviously did not understand how you measure the oil in the reservoir and, long story short, I added too much oil. I wiped as much of it out of the light fixture as I could, and when I noticed there was oil dripping from the end of the pull chains for the fan and the light, l wrapped pieces of an old rag around the end of each rubber bands to hold the fabric onto the chains. I then put the fabric wrapped chain ends in small ziploc bags and sealed them either side of the chain so they wouldn't fall off. All this was to prevent oil from continuing to drip onto my kitchen table as it had originally. They've been like that for what's probably been 6 to 8 months as I believe the over-oiling incident happened last fall. I haven't really tried to do anything about it until now when it's starting to get to the point here in the Florida Panhandle where I'd really like that fan above my kitchen table to work. But I'm afraid to turn it on because I've read that oil would get all over the flywheel if you to put too much oil in the reservoir, and it would spray out everywhere if you turned on the fan. I didn't worry about it over the winter although I do sometimes reverse them and use them when it's really cold out but we didn't even have that cold a winter so I pretty much ignored it until now. I'm pretty sure there's no more oil coming out of the fan down the pull chains because the small amounts of oil captured in the ziploc bags certainly hasn't increased and I think some of it has actually evaporated because it seems like there's less than there was earlier although it's not like I've measured it. I will, of course, start by measuring the oil in the reservoir. I wonder if it's possible some of it has evaporated. And I was wondering whether if it's still overfilled I might be able to suck out some of the oil with an eyedropper. But the question about there possibly being oil on the flywheel is still kind of freaking me out. Is there any way I can deal with this without having to take down the fan? I simply can't do that myself because it's way up high and they are too heavy for me to hold while standing way up on a I had an electrician install all my 4 Hunter Original fans for that reason. I can call an electrician to care of this if I need to, but I'm hoping I won't need to. Does anyone out there have experience with this situation and what I can do to help get my fan working before it gets even hotter out here in the Florida Panhandle? Is my idea of sucking oil out of the reservoir with an eye dropper, for example, legitimate? Is it possible oil that got on the flywheel has evaporated over time, or that the oil which slowly ran down the pull chains came from the area where the flywheel is and that perhaps there's no more to fly out of the fan if I turn it on? Does anyone know how much oil that little oil reservoir holds or how deep it is? That's all the questions I can think of for now. I hope someone who might read this has the knowledge to help me. I looked all over online and all I could find was about how to add oil - the exact opposite of what I want to do! I should note that I haven't called the Hunter Fan Company because it's not like these fans are under warranty, I don't think as I bought all four of mine on eBay. I guess I have paperwork with the model numbers and that sort of thing but I thought I'd start here because it's easier and friendlier than many customer service personnel are.
