When the washing machine stops during operation, it is not necessarily something broken and urgently need to call the service center. This happens usually at high speeds in the "Extraction" and is associated with certain reasons.

How to get rid of the "jumps"



The centrifugal force arising from the operation of the washing machine at a high speed causes the device to experience serious load. The result is a strong vibration that can eventually even lead to breakage of the device. However, there are ways to avoid this
As practice shows, nine out of ten reasons for the "hopping" of the washing machine can be solved without the service center.


An incorrect installation. If the device is not installed correctly, the centrifugal force literally "throws" the car from side to side. There are strong oscillations and vibrations that can be corrected by use level and by changing the height of the legs of the machine to put it vertically and horizontally. Usually the device has a nut and locknut that can be adjusted. To find out which feet to tighten up, put the camera on a saucer with water and watch for the tilt of the liquid.

In some cases, a "Bouncing" too much and no matter how you leveled, nothing happens. In this case, it is possible to reduce fluctuations, using a rubber Mat or separately cut from this material circles. Is that your washing machine is not standing on bare tile or concrete. It will allow to suppress vibrations.

It also happens that the machine "jumps" is because the drum device is not fully loaded. Subject to the same centrifugal force torque at partial load causes the unit to bounce. The denser gasket will eliminate this phenomenon is to a significant extent, or simply negate.

The fault of the suspension. Such a reason can also be, when all previous methods have already been taken into account, and vibrations to eliminate failed. It so happens that over time wear out the shock absorbers, something happens to the counterweight or in the drum there is a defect during operation. So it appears that yesterday the machine did not jump, but jumps today. In this case, it's time to call the service center.

Modern washing machines



Modern models of the washing machines is usually not so strong vibration when properly installed. If there is this effect, use the advice given above or go to the service center.
Old washing machines, for years served faithfully, can still work with proper handling.


If your washer already had a good life and has more than a dozen years, not necessarily to change it. If you make a small adjustment of the apparatus on the floor, you can use it on.
