I have had my 10-20 now for over 2 years and it developed a vibration.
I cleaned the drum out with air and that didn't help, I checked all the set screws on the motor and drum with no help. Checked to make sure all the screws on the it were tight and still no help. The vibration was a little worst without a load on it but not much.
I kind of just lived with it and then the other day it was bugging me so I decided to fix it, not sure how but I was going to fix it.
I decided to just take the thing apart and clean everything. I stated to take it apart and when I loosened the set screw on the top front of the towers it popped. It was a snap type pop like it was in a bind and I had released it.
So at this point I tightened the set screws back up and turned it on, NO vibration, run just as smooth as it could be, I check the drum to be parallel to the table and it was off a little so I adjust it and now things are running great, no vibration.
