Motor whine?

I've had mine for about a week now and lovin' it. The motor has developed a whine. I've researched the forum, regreased the bearings, trued the wheel, improved runout on the leather wheel and unfortunately the low to medium pitch whine is still there. Any suggestions?--thanks, Dan

Tough to say without seeing it, but it may be normal.

Make sure all the knobs on the tool support mounts are tight and check the AngleMaster.  Sometimes it will vibrate while it is haning on the front of the machine and make an odd noise.
