Sounds like the main bearings could be worn.
Remove the belt, and spin drum by hand from the front of the washer,
If it is noisy or feels rough, then it is the bearings.
If that is o/k, then check the drum pulley is not broken or loose.

Urevo treadmill - knocking noise

A knocking noise coming from the rear roller of a Urevo treadmill can be caused by several issues. The following are some troubleshooting steps you can try:
  1. Check for loose bolts: Make sure that all bolts and screws that hold the frame and the roller in place are tight and secure.
  2. Check the belt tension: Ensure that the belt is tight enough. If the belt is too loose, it can cause knocking and other noise issues.
  3. Check the rollers: Make sure the rollers are not worn or damaged, as they support the weight of the belt and can affect the alignment of the belt.
  4. Check the deck: Make sure the deck is not damaged or worn, as this can cause noise issues as well.
If the noise persists after trying these steps, it's best to stop using the machine and seek assistance from the manufacturer or a professional repair technician. Using a machine that is making a knocking noise could potentially be dangerous and lead to further damage.

Why does belt keep coming off when spinning?

Sadly, this is almost certainly drum bearings worn out and the drum spins off centre, causing the belt to come adrift (I'm guessing your spin cycle has become significantly noisier recently). Worse news I'm afraid, the IWC6125 uses a sealed, non serviceable drum, so this is really an uneconomical repair that will cost around 60%-75% of the cost of the machine when new

The machine fills and makes normal machine noise but wont spin and clothes come out dripping

It has to do with the drum not spinning properly.
It could be the belt has come off or broken.
If belt o/k, then you need to check the brushes in the motor.
If less than 3 or 4mm long, they need replacing.

The two dampers that fix to the outer drum casing have plastic bushes that can fall out. Check the floor under the machine, They are easy to replace just click in place.
