To keep your washing machine stable, you can use anti-vibration pads. These pads are placed under the machine's feet to reduce movement and shaking during operation.
Using Anti-Vibration Pads
Here’s a step-by-step guide on how to install anti-vibration pads, based on the provided reference:
- Prepare: Ensure you have a set of anti-vibration pads.
- Tilt the Washing Machine: Gently tilt the washing machine so that it rests on its back two legs.
- Place the First Two Pads: Slide the first two pads under the front legs of the machine.
- Tilt Again: Tilt the washing machine onto the front two legs.
- Place the Remaining Pads: Place the other two pads under the back legs. You may find it easier to do this by going side-to-side if needed.
Additional Tips for Stability
- Ensure Level Placement: Make sure the machine is placed on a flat and level surface. An uneven surface can exacerbate shaking.
- Check for Proper Feet Adjustment: Adjust the machine’s feet to ensure they all make firm contact with the floor.
- Balance Loads: Avoid overloading the machine or washing unevenly distributed loads which can cause the machine to shake during the spin cycle.
By following these steps, you can significantly reduce your washing machine's tendency to move or shake during use, enhancing stability and prolonging its lifespan.
