Troubleshooting
Appliance still vibrates excessively
Ensure the stand is placed on a perfectly level floor. Check that all assembly bolts are tightened securely. Verify the appliance itself is balanced and level on the worktop.
Stand wobbles during use
Confirm all connecting bolts are fully tightened. Check that the rubber feet are correctly attached and evenly contacting the floor. Ensure the appliance is centered on the stand.
Difficulty accessing plumbing
