Sometimes women are not very happy with their washing machines; he complains that during operation this technique vibrates excessively and can even “gallop” on the floor while the spin cycle is in progress. What causes this annoying trouble and how to deal with it?
Causes of vibration of the washing machine
There may be a number of reasons for the strong vibration of the machine during the spin cycle, which reaches its displacement. First of all, this is not a reliable unit support on the floor. This can be the case if the floor bends, it is uneven, or the legs of the machine are loose and are no longer able to keep it even and firm. Another reason for strong vibration is the transportation device that was not removed on time, which rigidly fixes the drum inside the machine body.
A common cause of increased vibration during operation of the washing machine may be wear on its bearings or malfunction of shock absorbers.
The washing machine "jumps" during the spin cycle - what to do?
If the reason for the shaking is the insufficiently even and strong floor under the machine, it might be better to rearrange it or put something more stable under it - a couple of wide porcelain tiles, for example, will do. Check the legs of the machine - if they are incorrectly adjusted in height, then fix it. In case the legs loose over time, tighten the fasteners with which they are fixed on the machine body; if necessary, tighten them with locknuts.
In the event that the transportation device preventing the drum shaking inside the machine during transportation is not removed, vibration and shaking will be especially strong. This device must be removed before use. If you find it difficult to determine how it looks and where it is located, contact the person who understands this.
Sometimes the appearance of shaking and vibration of the machine during operation is that the laundry was careless, thrown into its drum with one lump. In this case, the uniform loading of the machine is violated, which provokes its vibration. In order to solve this problem, stop the spin cycle and separate the laundry items from each other, then continue washing. If the machine is simply overloaded, that is, the maximum permissible weight of the laundry loaded in it is exceeded, divide it into several washing cycles.
