All the grease was melted out. And dummy me, I didn't catch on until I was talking to Good ol' Herb on the phone. He says, "WHAT is that noise?" He could here it loud and clear. It's my new machine. I don't know a good sound from a bad sound. Turns out it was metal rubbing on metal! Yiks! Get out the grease! You simply don't know how long that machine was sitting in what kind of temps. Better to be safe than sorry.
