Question I have a front loading Samsung J845 washing machine - I want to move it between rooms in my house, on a trolley. Do I have to put the shipping bolts in for such a short move? It won't be lying on its side, just at a slight angle for maybe five minutes or so. The bolts are really hard to put into the machine.
Thanks,
Cecilia
Answer short answer, no, you dont have to. as long as its not tipped on its side. basically the biggest fear you need to have is if you tip it over too much, you may shift the tub up enough to make the entire tub assembly come out of the shocks.....so as long as your careful, you should be fine!
