Sometimes the washing machine can cause problems with its behavior.
One such problem is when the washing machine jumps while working, making loud noises and vibrating. In this article, you will learn why this happens and how to fix it.
Reasons why a washing machine jumps
If your washing machine is jumping while it is running, it could be due to several factors.
Incorrect installation or adjustment of the machine. To prevent the machine from jumping, you need to install it on a flat and solid surface and adjust the height of its legs. Otherwise, it may lose balance and start jumping.
Overloading or uneven distribution of laundry. If the machine is overloaded with laundry or the laundry is unevenly distributed in the drum, it may create excessive centrifugal force and jump.
Worn or broken machine parts. If the machine has worn or broken parts such as shock absorbers, springs, bearings, belt or engine, it may not work properly and may jump.
Ways to Fix Washing Machine Jumping
To fix the problem with the washing machine jumping, you need to eliminate its cause. Here are some ways to do this.
Check the installation and adjustment of the machine
You need to make sure that the machine is installed on a flat and solid surface and that its feet are adjusted to the correct height. You can also use special anti-vibration pads or mats under the machine.
Check the loading and distribution of laundry
It is necessary to follow the recommendations for loading the machine, as specified in the instructions, and not to overload it with laundry. It is also necessary to distribute the laundry evenly in the drum and not twist it into lumps.
Check the condition of the machine parts
It is necessary to inspect the machine parts for wear or breakage. If any defects are found, you need to contact a repair specialist or replace the parts yourself.
This way you can get rid of the problem with the washing machine jumping and ensure its normal and safe operation.
