This is the third season with my Lopi Pioneer. It seems to have developed a rattle that is increasingly annoying. This began to develop at the end of the season last year, but it is worse this year.
The shroud around the convection blower rattles. It quits when I put tension on it with my finger.
I blew it out well last spring and put a drop of oil on the motor shaft where it is exposed.
I have checked to see if the mounts are tight and they are. I am wondering if the bearings in the motor are going bad and producing a high frequency vibration that is being transmitted to the shroud assembly?
Any ideas would be appreciated before I talk to the dealer.
