Possible Causes
Dryer not level, Worn or missing leveling legs, Uneven load inside drum, Worn drum support rollers
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the dryer before adjusting legs or moving the unit.
- Level the dryer: Place a level on top of the dryer. Adjust the leveling legs so the dryer is stable and level front-to-back and side-to-side. Tighten lock nuts.
- Check floor: Ensure the floor is solid and not flexing. Avoid placing the dryer on soft surfaces.
- Balance loads: Avoid drying single heavy items alone. Mix large and small items to balance the drum.
- Inspect drum supports: If vibration persists, inspect drum rollers and supports for wear and replace as needed.
