Possible Causes
Washer not leveled, Worn shock absorbers, Loose drum weights, Overloaded or poorly distributed laundry
How to Fix / Troubleshooting
Safety first: Unplug the washer before adjusting feet or inspecting internal components.
Step-by-step checks:
- Level the washer: Use a spirit level on the top surface. Adjust the front feet until the machine is stable and does not rock. Tighten lock nuts.
- Load distribution: Avoid washing single heavy items. Redistribute laundry evenly and remove some items if the drum is overfilled.
- Inspect suspension: Remove the top cover and check springs and shock absorbers for wear or broken mounts. Replace worn shocks in pairs.
- Check counterweights: Verify that concrete or cast-iron weights are secure. Tighten bolts if necessary.
