Noise from the engine

Hi all, for the past few days I have been hearing a noise every time the engine is running and it seems like something is rubbing every time the engine is running.

According to everyone's experience, what could be the cause and can I fix it myself? Thank

Welcome to the forum, Brent.

Try running your Tormek with the water trough removed. Is the noise still present?

Which model Tormek do you have, and what is its approximate age? (It still may be under warranty, and whether or not it is, you will find Tormek support very helpful.)

The Tormek is essentially a rather simple machine. Most noises can be owner fixed, sometimes with a little guidance from support (or the forum.) It would help if you could post a short video showing the noise. I have no diubt that your Tormek has many years of quiet running life remaining.

Please keep us posted.

Ken

Brent,

I neglected to include the support email address: (support@tormek.se)

Maybe it needs the annual maintenance?
