• Restores smooth rotation and reduces wobble or misalignment symptoms
• Helps stop squeaks, grinding noises, or knocking caused by a damaged pivot point
• Prevents accelerated wear on adjacent parts by maintaining correct positioning

Install notes:

• Designed to replace the factory pivot block; verify orientation before removing old part
• Disconnect power and follow the appliance manufacturer's safety instructions before servicing
• Basic hand tools typically required; do not force parts—inspect mating surfaces for damage
• If other suspension or support parts are damaged, replace them to avoid repeat failure
