I've owned this machine for a little over a year. Recently, it has started making a grinding noise (from the flywheel?). Can anyone help?

It might require some greasing or maintenance more than likely. I've had mine for several years now and with some minor exceptions has worked pretty well so far. Horizon can send someone out for repairs but unless it's still under warranty, I would find out what it would cost first of course.

Mine is doing the same thing. I finally just stopped using the ice machine unless I need it for a one time use. Was awesome while it lasted :/

I did not have this experience. I would contact seller or promptly arrange for a return. Good luck. Sorry you are having trouble. It is an awesome machine!

I didn't, it could be the motor is bad, or has the bearings over packed with lubricant. I would contact Air King/Lasko for further information and possible replacement motor or unit return.

I am using the machine for the first time. It's making such a big noise. Stopped the machine and checked it for several times but my effort made no difference. Looking at the manual, it said that means the dough is too dry and adding some water may solve the problem. I will try that solution next time.

Same here. I don't think this machine is as good as it used to be. I wish I could help. I'm really disappointed with this purchase.

You problem sounds like it could be an adjustment issue. But if it is your clutch you will also need either a new flywheel or resurface the old one. But I would try to try adjusting your clutch first.

After owning this machine for 7 months (had our first for about three years) I'm having the same problem as of this morning. I'm going to try all the tactics that billf recommends. Anyone else rectify the problem?

We've been using ours for about 3 months and it recently started knocking/clunking inside the flywheel housing. Warranty for labor is only 90 days, so it looks like we will have to pay to have it fixed.

Mine had some grinds in it, but not as you describe. Did the packaging look as if it was opened? I think I might be upset if my machine arrived 'dirty'. Even if the motor probably would not be damaged by the grinds, I would still expect my machine to arrive clean. Good luck, it really is a very good grinder.

I make sure to place lube on the track and I sprayed WD40 were the "pedals" can be adjusted. I also took the plastic covering off were the arms attach and realized it was the source of some of the noise. I WD40'd that area and replaced the covers. The noise or grinding sound stopped. Occassionally I still spray WD40 on the pedals. Ultimately you can call in the warranty folks for some troubleshooting if it is still a problem for you. I have had my elliptical for over a year and aside from the occassional noise it gets a lot of use!

After moving the purifier several times while vacuuming, mine has also developed a louder whirring noise. It is obvious at all levels. Level one used to be very quiet, an almost unnoticeable hum, but now it sounds like the motor is grinding and working overtime. As it's been less than a year, maybe less than half a year, I am planning on speaking to the manufacturer about it.

I have no idea why it happened, I've had mine more than a year now, and didn't notice anything. Does your bike still work, or is just making sounds?Check the belt, maybe it came off or is loose. If it doesn't sound like a loose belt that you can fix on your own, - contact the seller. If anything, - you still have time to return it back, and the bike comes with 1 year warranty (if I'm not mistaken).

Mine started with a high pitched buzzing noise and now after 4 months the motor is not running right and mist output is low. I am having it replaced as I like the features. If I get one that works and does not make the noise, I will be very happy! :)

I noticed that mine does that as well, it also has a funny sound from the wheels when it rolls. I wonder if that zipping sound is the bristles of the brush rubbing against the plastic housing.

Sorry, but we haven't experienced that. I would definitly call Breville, especially if it's still under warranty, but even if it's not, they may help you find a solution.
