    Default Noisy Bearing Nova DVR XP

    Set up NEW Nova DVR XP .. puchased online from Carbatec and picked up this SAt.have seen a few of these on display but not actually operating.Headstock bearing noisy ...smooths out slightly at higher speeds but still very present.. At Bowl speeds it would give you a headache in half an hour..Is this normal and a function of the electronics or have i got a faulty item.. Need to have a firm idea before i do battle with Carbatec..would appreciate advice ..

    Sounds dodgy to me, time to battle the big C. One thought though, do you get this noise with an out of balanced blank?

    Yes, well, doesn't sound good. Contact them straight away, they should replace it for you.

    When I was lathe shopping years ago I watched some video of those rigs and they all had that noise in the background - I went and bought a Stubby

    The day I get a stubby is when the other half suddenly has a wave of benevolence wash over her. Either that or when the Lotto gods zap me.
