Question posted by dmwilsomfam6 on February 6th, 2011

Shaking When Spinning.

I bought a mhwz600tw00 about three years ago and it has always wobbled and shaken until I had to frame in the feet to keep it from dancing across the floor. I know several others with front load washers and none of them have this problem. What can be done about this?

did you try to adjust the feet by turning to raise or lower? try that, and shake it a little to figure out which foot may be too low...keep adjusting till you have no more wobble when you move it around.
