Possible Causes

Dryer not level, Feet not adjusted or missing, Uneven or heavy load, Worn drum supports or bearings

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Turn off and unplug the dryer before adjusting feet.

Levelling:

  • Use a spirit level on the top of the dryer and adjust the front and rear feet until the unit is level and stable.
  • Ensure all feet are in firm contact with the floor.

Load:

  • Avoid drying single heavy items (e.g. large bath mat) alone; mix with other items to balance the drum.

Internal supports:

  • If vibration persists, inspect drum bearings, rollers, and supports for wear and replace as needed.
