I had a squeak.....

[Merlin1964]

Startup this morning, thought I heard something out of the norm.

About 4 hours later I now hear a squeak. I shut down and go do a total machine maintenance run.

Start back up, no squeak, place 11 X 14 hoop back in machine and start up. YIKES Squeaking again....... It was the hoop and arms that were squeaking........ a little dab of oil and its was gone. Never thought something like that would squeek so loudly......

Just thought I would share that.

Where did you oil the hoop/arms?

[Merlin1964]

where the arm has the lock clip that locks the hoop in place.

I also looked at it later and adjusted the clip. there was a little play when the hoop was clipped in.
