AS the load dries and gets lighter, squeak sound lessens Has been squeaking for a while. Just recently started making a horrible rumbling noise when running while empty. I think it's around 6-8 years old. Is there any way to check that? Also, on occasion, small articles ( rags, bras, waistband drawstrings ) get caught on the inside panel near the light and it makes a noise as if the drum is having trouble turning or is restricted somehow. That's the best way I can think of to describe it right now. Thanks for your help. Merry Christmas! pdl2

The bushings are oilite and kinda dried out. While I put in new "wheels", I wish I'd just lubed the bushings & shafts with something good, like a light silicon grease. It wasn't difficult, but it was probably 25 years ago, so I don't remember anything about how to do it.
