But it can happen if the rotor is incorrectly built as well.

Contact tech support, and we'll send you a new rotor for the motor.

Thanx!

Thanks Patrick. It is great that you frequent the forums.

What about the endbell? Does it actually have a hole in it or did the shaft chew through it? If so, what do I do about the hole?
