Kenmore 44921 Front Load Washer - Page 8 Questions & Answers
Kenmore front load washer rocks when spinning and cant seem to get it level so that it doesnt rock side to side
By 'side to side' I'm assuming you mean it's rocking left to right and not front to back? The most common direction it will rock will be on a diagonal line. How far is it rocking? A small amount or a large amount? Small amounts can be adjusted. If it has recently started rocking badly, especially on high spin, it might suggest there is another issue that needs looking at.
Most machines only have adjusters on the front. Wind both feet all the way In then wind them both Out again 5 full turns. You might need a helper for this as you will need to tilt the machine to take the weight off the feet. Physically push and pull the machine to see which direction it is rocking. It will always rock on the highest points. On the corner that lifts wind that foot Out half a turn and the other foot In half a turn. Repeat this using Half or Quarter turns until the machine levels out. If the rocking direction changes sides wind the foot you have just wound Out back In the half/ quarter turn you have just used but Not the other foot.
You might need to 'fine tune' with more eighth and quarter turns over the next few times you use the machine. At this point you only need to adjust the foot that actually lifts off the floor.
If it rocks evenly down the centre line of the machine it might be the actual floor causing the issue.

This has probably already been done, but often debris from the hot water line will plug the screen that is at the inlet. this is often a rubber washer with a screen molded into it. scale from water heater and lines builds up and cuts flow way down this video gives an example. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xED_4n5e_ww
