Your washing machine Atlant makes a noise, buzzes and rattles? The sound at high speeds is similar to a hum of the plane at take-off? This indicates the wear of the drum bearing.
The bearing can withstand heavy loads, therefore wears out over time or under the influence of external factors. We will tell you how to remove and replace the bearing in the AGA Atlas. Follow our recommendations and you will succeed.
Symptoms of the problem
How to determine the failure of the bearing at home? The first and main feature is increased noise during the operation of the stylalki. Also, if you shake the drum by hand, you will notice the play - the drum moves upward from the tank. And if you twist it with your hand, it rotates unevenly.

Why is it dangerous to delay the repair of bearings? When they are erased, the crosspiece of the drum suffers, and from the uneven vibration of the drum, the tank may be damaged. As a result, repairs cost a lot more times.
