Got the manual from Shopsmith. It appears there are only 2 adjustments, for the belt drives(#14 adj screws), and no internal maintenance. So, I will check the adjustments and see what happens.

Thanks for the idea,

Larry
WOW That was quick! Idea @ 12:59, got the manual by 14:50. How/what did SS do to get it to you so quickly? I have NOT seen it in the manual archives.

BTW My name is NOT Goldie! That is a reference to my SS. JPG will do(or RED).:)

Hi,

Per the manual, the adjustments for the 2 screws (#14) on the front and rear of the speed reducer, should be 27/32 "between the washers". The adjustment screws ride inside of a spring. One screw was exactly 27/32, the other was 23/32. I adjusted it to 27/32, and that small adjustment did make it a bit quieter.

So, thanks for all the input.

Larry
