Aluminium spider corrodes after time. Bearing spins fine but as soon as fast spin kicks in, drum tries to escape from machine. One of the legs of spider has gone. Apparently to much fabric conditioner causes a scientific reaction. Beyond me.

Check for bearing failure by seeing if there is any vertical movement between the moving stainless drum and the fixed outer drum. There should be no vertical movement between them - if there is the bearings have failed.
