The drum of the washing machine knocks while spinning

A modern washing machine is a great help for people inhousehold. Using different programs, you can wash products from different types of fabrics. You can both refresh the laundry, and wash off the heavy dirt. Unfortunately, "Stiralka" sometimes goes out of order, so you need to solve the problem as soon as possible. What to do if the drum of the washing machine knocks during spinning and during work, how to fix this problem?

Possible causes of the failure

If you notice such a roar, do not panic immediately. Some reasons why the drum knocks on the washing machine during spinning do not indicate a malfunction. Perhaps you just do not operate the equipment enough, violating the manufacturer's recommendations.

So, there can be only three reasons:

• This is not even a breakdown. If the machine beeps, the reason may be unevenly distributed laundry in the drum unit.
• Deviations of the equipment position relative to the floor.
• Problems with the counterweight. This can be a normal breakage or loosening of the bolts that fix the counterweight.
• Damage to shock absorbers, spring failure.

Consider these reasons in more detail.

Uneven distribution of laundry

This problem occurs in old type washing machines. When washing and squeezing laundry things crumble. As a result, an imbalance arises and the machine's tank begins to knock on its walls.

Important! In modern-style washing machines, imbalance control is used, so the laundry is evenly distributed inside the device.

The machine is not installed correctly

If the unit starts to vibrate and "jump" when washing, the problem may be its incorrect installation. The sound does not come from inside the erasing device, but from the fact that it vibrates.

Important! Anti-vibration mat is not an absolute solution.

Ideal if the washing machine is installed on an ideally horizontal surface, in level.

You can check the correctness of the installation in two ways:

• Shake the styralka from side to side. She should not break away from the floor.
• Place the level on the cover of the eraser.

Important! Eliminate the wrong installation can be with special silicone supports, which can be purchased at a hardware store.

Spring or shock absorber failure

Why is the drum knocking on the washing machine during spinning?

• The design features of the washing unit is that the drum tank is suspended on the springs.
• They are supported from below by shock absorbers.
• These adaptations compensate for vibrations.

Important! Over time, the details of the washer wear out. Shock absorbers and springs are no exception. When using the machine, they experience a significant load, and the device fails.

If the shock absorber or spring is faulty, the tank is shifted and positioned incorrectly. The shock absorber loses elasticity and stretches so that it sinks to the bottom and beats against the body of the machine. It is not surprising that the tank begins to make a thud during work.

In this case, you need to stop using the stilalki and do troubleshooting. To eliminate the knock shock absorbers must be replaced, and, both at once.

Important! Neglect this rule is not necessary. If you replace one shock absorber, the load is distributed unevenly. The second - partially worn out, the shock absorber will break down in the shortest time, even if it was in a relatively normal state.

The washing machine makes a crash when pressed: the counterbalance related to the

counterweight is a load that is attached to the tank of the unit for weighting the tank. We need a counterweight to ensure that the laundry that is in the car, when washing and wringing, does not swing the tank and the unit itself.

During operation, the counterweight is blown and knocks. If the fasteners are loosened, the balancing stone does not hold, but on the contrary - it swings the styralka.

Important! To eliminate this problem, the machine must be disassembled and tightened with reinforcement bolts. If it turns out that the counterweight is destroyed, it is replaced with a new one.

Foreign sounds from the drum side

If the drum beeps, the reasons may be as follows:

• Garbage between the drum and the drum. This can be a clasp from a bra, a clip or a button. Touching during washing with the tank, they make a knocking knock.

Important! To remove foreign objects, it is enough to remove the rear or front cover of the machine and remove the heater. Through this hole, you can remove all foreign objects. Operate the machine without removing an alien object, it is impossible, because it is dangerous to wedge the device.

• The reason for the knocking can be wear bearing. In this case, the machine also produces a creaking sound. Bearings wear out when the unit is used for a long time. The solution to the problem is one: replace the bearings and seals, and all.

Important! If a single bearing breaks down, this is a sure sign that the others will start to "fall" after them.

• If the drum knocks strongly during spinning, the problem may be in unscrewing the mains filter. It is fixed to the back of the device and is designed to equalize the voltage to 220 V. If the filter is poorly attached, during operation of the device it hits the tank, causing a knocking sound. To solve this problem, it is necessary to fix the filter and, possibly, replace the fasteners.

In any case, if there are extraneous sounds in the typewriter, it is necessary to stop the unit operation and call the master."Self-activity" should not be dealt with, it can turn into not a "minor" malfunction, but a real accident.
