Forget to level it and it could break down

Washing machines are able to spin at superfast speeds. In order to be able to do that safely, the machine might have to be level on the floor.

If your machine was installed by a professional, they definitely checked the level of the machine and adjusted it in the right way. If they didn’t, we’ll give you some tips on how to level your washing machine.

First, try rocking your machine, and if it moves, you’ll have to level it. You can simply do that by adjusting your feet. Then, loosen the locking nut and use a spanner to lower or raise the washing machine until it is level.
