When you washing machine is in the spin cycle the agitator should rotate along with the drum of your washing machine and that's normal. There is no way it could be going up and down and will only appear that is is agitating while on spin.
The agitator has several functions. It helps circulate the water around the clothes while helping the articles of clothing rub against each other to help clean them. The agitator also helps to expel the water when the cycle is finished.
if it is a regular washing machine it should take at least 30 minutes
Washing machines vary, but on the regular size washers it is usually about ten minutes. The large washing machines take longer.
In general it depends solely on the temp setting on your hot water heater.
The average washing machine is said to use 65 liters of water per cycle. It is more energy efficient to fully load the washing machine because a half wash uses the same amount of water as a full wash.
that would be the agitator. it moves the laundry around to 'swish' the water through your clothes.
A washing machine works by combining water, detergent, and mechanical action to agitate clothes, remove dirt, and rinse them clean. The machine's motor turns an agitator or drum to create this movement, while the water pump drains and refills the machine when needed during the wash cycle.
Electricity is transformed into mechanical energy to turn the motor, which then moves the agitator or drum to clean the clothes. Some energy is also converted into heat to warm the water during the wash cycle.
It sounds like there may be an issue with the washer's agitator or wash cycle mechanism. Check if the agitator is moving properly during the wash cycle. Also, inspect the belt or drive motor for any signs of wear or damage that may be affecting the washing cycle. If these checks don't resolve the issue, consider contacting a professional technician for further diagnosis and repair.
You can hear water in the bottom of your washing machine because there may be leftover water from a previous cycle or a drainage issue causing water to accumulate.
The inner tube normally spins in the same direction as the agitator but the agitator will switch directions throughout the cleaning process. This is done to ensure that all clothes are properly washed before the cycle completes.
the agitator on most washers go back and forth . at least one i know of goes up and down. we will talk about the back and forth.Underneath the tub usually accessable from the back of the machineis a transmission and belt along with other things. when you start the washer it will fill with water . When the correct volume of water is reached a switch is activated that sends power to the timer which in turn routes power to the proper connections needed to agitate. now when washing power is sent to a agitator control which lifts a plunger that makes the transmission rock back and forth which is calledagitation

To prevent your washer agitator from banging loudly during the spin cycle, try to balance the load inside the machine by redistributing the clothes. Make sure the washer is level on the ground to avoid any vibrations. Additionally, you can check that the agitator isn't loose or damaged, as this could also cause the noise.
Yes, a washing machine transitions from one cycle to another. There is a water cycle that transitions to a wash cycle, then it transitions to a rinse cycle, a spin cycle and so on.
The spin cycle in a washing machine is used to separate water out of clothes. During this cycle, the drum spins at high speeds, causing centripetal force to push the water outwards, allowing it to be drained away from the clothes.
A leaking washing machine during the agitating cycle could be due to a damaged door seal, loose or damaged hoses, or issues with the water inlet valve. It is essential to inspect these components to determine the exact cause of the leak and make the necessary repairs to prevent further water damage.
