Why is my Vicmarc Machinery Lathe making a knocking noise?
If you hear a knocking noise when your Vicmarc Machinery Lathe is running, it could be due to wood splinters or other foreign objects contaminating the pulleys or V-belt. To resolve this, turn off the main switch and remove the contaminants. Alternatively, a grub screw on the headstock or motor pulley might be loose. Locate and retighten the grub screw.
How to stop my Vicmarc Machinery Lathe from vibrating?
If your Vicmarc Machinery Lathe is vibrating, it might be resting on only two or three points on its feet, causing it to oscillate. To fix this, re-level the machine so that all four feet are supporting it. If necessary, pack the feet to maintain level.
