Here is the link to the parts breakdown. Things to look for with the front removed would be the damper pads, which are hard to see. They are located under the pivot point where the tub braces attach to the damper. They are made out of a felt type material. There is also a concrete ring on top of the tub that may be cracked which can cause it to vibrate. The inner tub being loose on the mounting stem can cause a problem also. Look for anything (screws/bolts) that may be loose.

The above service manual isn't specifically for your model, but the inner workings that the manual shows is basically the same as yours. Your A412 is an "80's" model so you may want to limit how much you spend on a repair.
