Tip of the day

The washing machine has broken down. When you removed the back panel of the machine, you found that the rubber that runs from the motor shaft to the drum washer was loose. Despite the fact that the tightening was done again, the belt loosens and is not properly fixed on the rotation axis that connects the two pulleys. If the belt of the washing machine does not remain on its axis. If the steel drum falls off and the drum pulley is not aligned with the motor pulley and comes off, the problem is most likely with the bearings. It is possible that the rubber belt that goes between the two pulleys is already stretched a bit and that is why it slips. You have two options: The first, loosen the screws that hold the base of the motor stationary in relation to the washing machine cabinet. Place the rubber belt between the two pulleys and move the motor away from the washing machine drum to tighten it. If the belt keeps coming off, remove the belt and contact a dealer to choose a belt compatible with your washing machine. There are different kinds of belts and not all of them are suitable for all models of washing machines.
