Loads in abaqus

Loads in abaqus

(OP)
Hi,

I am trying to calculate a half model in abaqus.
The model includes two washers at the top and the bottom of a rubber.
INSIDE the rubber was an axis and the rubber is fixed from the outside by a ring.
the loads are a radial displacement of the axis along Ur then precompression of two washers -1.5 mm and 1.5 mm at the top and bottom and then an axial displacement of the assembly (axis washers) according Uz is applied (2mm)
I used the same set of nodes for axial loading and precompresion loading but the calculation diverges from the start and it shows me dof incompatible or sthg like that.

I wonder how can i apply these loads? I can not use the same set of nodes for different loads in differtent steps?

Thank you for your help
Attached is a photo of the model
