Troubleshooting
If you experience Possible Causes Solution
Vibration or Off-Balance
Vibration, rocking, or
“walking”
Feet may not be in contact with the
floor and locked.
Front and rear feet must be in firm contact with floor, and
washer must be level to operate properly. Jam nuts must
be tight against the bottom of the cabinet.
Washer may not be level. Check floor for flexing or sagging. If flooring is uneven, a
¾" (19 mm) piece of plywood under your washer will reduce
sound. Do not install washer on a raised wooden platform.
See “Level the Washer” in Installation Instructions.

Balance a single item such as a rug or jeans jacket with a
few extra items.

The shipping bolts are still in the back
of the washer.
See “Remove transport bolts from washer” in the
