18. EXCESSIVE VIBRATION AND/OR NOISE DURING SPIN

When experiencing excessive vibration and/or noise during a spin cycle, there are three main causes,
which are as follows:

a. Improper Loading:

(1) Always make sure that full loads are used. Never wash partial loads.
(2) Do not mix various laundry items together in the same wash (e.g., do not wash towels and sheets

together).

(3) Avoid using laundry bags.

b. Improper Installation:

(1) Make sure that the washer-extractor is anchored to a flat, level surface. (Bolt down on soft mount

products is optional.)

(2) Refer to your washer-extractor’s installation manual for exact installation specifications.

c. Faulty Trunnion Bearings:

(1) Check the trunnion bearings’ noise factor.
(2) Lift up on the basket at the front of the tub. Check for any up and down play that would indicate bearing

wear.

(3) Replace the bearings as needed.
