A Philips-head screwdriver is required for this job

Samsung washers and dryers can be stacked by installing a stacking kit. The stacking kit connects the washer to the dryer and helps the dryer stay in place on top of the washer. Washers and dryers should never be stacked without a stacking kit, or they could fall and cause damage or injury. Samsung recommends having two people to lift the dryer into place on top of the washer.
