Hey Guys. Running my SP today and noticed something. It had started making a ticking and squawking sound - a bit like bearings dying.
So I pull off the end cover and kept running parts - and tried different things - put a trace of silicone grease on the edge of the timimg belt - it looked like it was rubbing on the encoder pulley flange.
That fixed it - it is quiet again now. If you try this dont use more than a trace - you dont want it getting on the main drive belt.

Interesting - I'll check for that tomorrow.
Michael, did you ever figure this out?
Hate to bring back a year old thread, but knowing if you were able to get any help from Tormach might help with others deciding if they will purchase from them.
