Possible Causes

Shipping bolts not removed on new Hansa washer, Washer not leveled, Worn shock absorbers, Unbalanced or overloaded drum

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the washer before adjusting feet or inspecting underneath.

  • Check shipping bolts: On new installations, ensure all rear shipping bolts and transit brackets have been removed according to the Hansa installation manual.
  • Level the machine: Adjust the front and rear feet so the washer is stable and level. Lock the feet with the locknuts.
  • Load distribution: Avoid washing single heavy items. Mix large and small items to balance the load.
  • Inspect suspension: If vibration persists, check shock absorbers and springs for wear and replace as needed.
