Can you replace drum bearings on Zwf1621?

This thread was marked as solved. Here's a summary of the problem and the fix, generated from the discussion below.

Zanussi ZWF1621 has non-serviceable sealed drum bearings

The problem

The owner asked whether the drum bearings could be replaced on a Zanussi ZWF1621 washing machine with a sealed outer drum tub that has no bolts to split it.

Likely cause

The accepted reply states the machine has a modern sealed drum design intended to be effectively non-repairable, so the bearings are not described as separately serviceable.

What fixed it

No bearing replacement method or parts were provided. The strongest supported conclusion is that, because the tub is sealed, the bearings are not intended to be replaced separately. Exact repair action was not confirmed.

Checks to try

• Confirmed the outer drum/tub is a sealed type with no bolts to split it
