Hello,
I have a 5HP Bridgeport style mill with a variable speed drive that makes a rattling noise that comes and goes constantly. It happens in high, low and neutral and appears louder to me at slower speeds. From reading these forums the rattling noise could be the belt or plastic bushings or perfectly normal I don't know as I haven't heard many other mills. I would appreciate it if someone could tell me if the noise is normal or is there indeed something wrong with the head on this mill?
