Possible Causes
Dryer not level, feet not locked, very small or very heavy mixed load, worn suspension or support components
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Do not place hands under the dryer while it is running.
Reduce vibration:
- Ensure the dryer is installed on a solid, level surface.
- Adjust the leveling feet so that the dryer does not rock; lock the feet if locknuts are provided.
- Avoid drying single heavy items (e.g., one large towel); add a few similar items to balance the load.
- If vibration persists even when empty and level, inspect internal supports, drum bearing, and motor mounts for wear and replace as needed.
