    Noise while jogging axis Interact II

    Bridgeport Interact II.
    I was jogging my Y axis and noticed a knocking sound. No idea what is causing it. I took some of the tension off the belt and it got quieter but still had a little knock.
    The x axis is loud. No knocking but you know its moving!
    So my question is how noisy are these mills when jogging if everything is working right?
