all my two speed FFs rattle like that-just make sure the belt is tight enough to not slip(but not too tight either)the belt pulley on the two speed clutches is aluminum and wears like mad if the belt is slipping. |

Okay, thanks! I was just curious and that seemed to answer my questions. |

some quieter than most, but just the same, if it didn't chatter, I would think something is wrong....
most of it comes from the little leg hitting the arm of the solenoid, wrapping a piece of electrical tape over the arm quiets it down some, as it cushions... you can hit the speed selector button while the machine is running, low to high will kick right in, but selecting high to low, this speed change wont occur until the machine is paused first.... some parts get a little scarce to find, so we have to improvise at times...if that arm for the solenoid snaps off, I have used a spring to replace it, actually works better than the original... as for the snubbers, I have picked up thick rubber from the hardware store, and cut pieces to fit in place as replacements....

clutch pulley looks very good-probably a "low miles" machine. |
