Hi i have the above washing machine that when spins makes some noise and rattles.I looked inside the washing machine and the counter weight concrete block is loose which is attached with 3 large bolts,2 of the bolts are set quite deep down and awkward to get into,can anyone give me advice what type of tool to use to tighten these bolts and how to get into the ones that are deep set many thanks in advance
USe a 13mm socket with a ratchet and an extension bar but do not go mad and overtighten them or the bolts wil snap out of the drum and then it will be a new washing machine.

you can tighten them up by using a 3/8" or 1/2" drive socket set and the correct size socket ,now depending how much thread is showing, you may need to use a deep throated socket to prevent the thread bottoming in the base of the socket
