Preparing for replacement
So, you are convinced that your washing machine needs to replace the bearing, and you are determined to do the work yourself without involving a technician. Where to begin?
First of all, you need to prepare a new set of bearings, including an oil seal. It is best to purchase original spare parts from the manufacturer, even if they cost more than their analogues. Replacing a bearing with your own hands is a labor-intensive process, so, you see, it is better to supply a high-quality part and not return to this issue again.
For repairs you will also need:
- flat and Phillips screwdrivers;
- chisel or impact screwdriver;
- hammer;
- pliers;
- wire cutters;
- puller (optional);
- socket wrenches;
- WD-40 product;
- glue;
- sealant.

Washing machines equipped with the “No Iron” or “Easy Iron” functions can wash clothes with little to no wrinkling. This effect is achieved through a special approach to spinning - it is performed at low speeds, with long pauses, and a small amount of water is retained in the tank.
In the 19th century, washing ladies' toilets took a lot of time. The dresses were first ripped open, and then each part was washed and dried separately so that the fabric did not become deformed. After washing, the clothes were sewn again.
There is a washing machine “for bachelors”. Linen washed in such a unit does not need to be ironed at all! The thing is that the device does not have a drum: some things can be placed inside the container directly on hangers (for example, jackets and shirts), and smaller things (for example, underwear and socks) can be placed on special shelves.
For washing small items on the road or in a hotel, it is convenient to use a regular plastic bag. Socks or tights are kneaded inside a tied bag along with water and a small amount of detergent. This method allows you to pre-soak things and wash them without damaging the fabric or wasting a lot of powder and water.
History knows the fact that a kitten fell into the drum of a washing machine and, after going through a full wash cycle on the “Wool” program, got out of the unit unharmed. The only trouble for the pet was an allergy to washing powder.
Washing machines have something to do with the origin of the expression “money laundering.” In the 1930s, American gangsters used a network of laundries as a cover for their illegal activities. By passing off the proceeds of crime as proceeds from cleaning clothes, they turned “dirty” money into “clean” money.
Astronauts, while in Earth orbit, solve the problem of dirty things using an original method. Clothes are dropped from the spacecraft and burn up in the upper atmosphere.
The first officially patented washing machine was made of wood and was a box with a frame, half filled with wooden balls. Laundry for washing and detergent were loaded inside and the frame was moved using a lever, which, in turn, made the balls move and grind the laundry.
The expression “soap opera” (“soap”) did not arise by chance. The very first series and shows that had a female audience were broadcast on television at a time when housewives did cleaning, ironing and laundry. In addition, to attract female viewers to the screens, commercials for detergents: soaps and powders were often played on air.
Today, bearings are used in almost all mechanical devices, including automatic washing machines (hereinafter also referred to as SM, ASM). The main task of the bearing is to minimize friction between the surfaces of the shaft and sleeve moving relative to each other during rotation. According to their design, modern bearings are divided into several varieties. In modern SM drums rotate on ball bearings, as well as on their roller “counterparts”. We will tell you about replacing the bearing in an Ariston washing machine in our article.
Bearing replacement
To remove old bearings, you will need a removal device. If this is not available, you can use a metal rod and a hammer. If you have never performed such an operation before, it is better to resort to the services of a specialist.
The Ariston SM model AVL 109 has bearings 6205 and 6204, as well as an oil seal with a skirt 65 x 30 x 52 x 10 mm. This marking is deciphered as follows:
- 65 – skirt diameter, expressed in mm;
- 30 – internal diameter;
- 52 – outer diameter;
- 10 – thickness, also in mm.
If you decide to replace the bearings yourself, you need to perform the following sequence of actions.
Use a metal rod and a hammer to knock out the old bearings. The crosspiece must be placed on stops so that there is free space under the bearings. The operation must be performed with utmost care.
To install a new bearing, you need to take a hammer and very carefully seat it in the seat, tapping the edges of the outer race of the bearing and slowly moving in a circle. Then, when it is almost completely seated, you should place the old bearing on top, using it as a guide, and, tapping with a hammer, completely seat the new part in the seat.
Before putting the cross back, you need to clean the drum shaft with “zero” sandpaper and a rag, as well as the front surface of the tank - in the place where the oil seal will come into contact with the tank. It is also necessary to lubricate the surface of the oil seal. To do this, you can use a lubricant with molybdenum.
The crosspiece must be carefully installed on the shaft. To do this, use a hammer, gently tapping it along the edges of the cross.
Assembly is carried out in reverse order.
As you can see, with certain skills you can repair your washing machine yourself. When working with other models, deviations from the above-described sequence of work are possible, but we have described the main stages.
