Those things need a lot of weight in them to keep them stable, did you have it installed by the service dept or drivers where you bought it? They should have balanced it and leveled it as well as put the weight in there ,check where you bought it if new and if not see what the recommended weight is from one of the retailers where you bought it and have them find out. Not good for the washer to be run like that.

Wash machine won't spin all the time and makes a loud banging noise.
Check to make sure that your clothes are not piled to one side causing the load to be off-balance. If that does'nt fix it then, It may be that your machine has a balance stabilizer on it that has worked its way loose or even off.

Mashine make noise and vibrating a lot
Hi, your washing machine makes noises because all the clothes and other materials are not balanced evenly--one side is heavier than the other--causing the drum to hit the sides of the washer wall.

Makes a loud banging noise as if the load is underbalanced even through the load is balanced.
HI There
Try this even tho you said it's balanced. Sometimes it looks like but a slight unbalanced can cause this problem.
It's noisy Most noises from a washing machine occur during the spin cycle. If you hear loud thumping during the spin, the load of clothes may have become unbalanced. Stop the washer and redistribute the clothes, then re-start it. Repeat these steps if necessary.
Let me know how this goes and thank you for writing to fix ya.
Best Regards Richard

Machine makes a thumping noise when spinning
If its thumping you have the maching overloaded and the clothes (very easy to do with heavy jeans or sweaters) are all on one side causing an out of balance situation. Try relocating some of the clothes to the other side of the unit and if that doesn't seem to help remove some of the clothes to eas the load on the machine otherwise it will never reach maximum spin speeds needed to rinse your clothes.
