Penny,

The motor is normally quiet. It sounds like you need a new motor which can be
purchased from any Shimpo dealer.

The pedal normally moves easily. We will mail you a diagram showing where to
grease your wheel along with a parts list.

For a dealer in your area, please call us at 630-671-2137/2138.

Maxine,
I teach high school ceramics and have several Shimpo's. 2 have developed
a mind of their own and will speed up if you don't keep your foot on the
pedal. Do you have a repair manual you can send me? Foothill High
School, 4375 Foothill RD. Pleasanton, Calif. 94588 Thanks Mike Gordon
