Foreman Pocket Hole Machine - Strange Noise

[Dave Gonzalez]

I bought the Kreg pocket hole machine, #DB55. We're in our first week using it and occasionally we have this high squeeling sound when drilling. What could be causing that and how do I correct it.

[KregCS]

Dave,

When exactly is it making this noise? Is it as you are pulling the handle, after it has entered the wood? If you could give me a little better idea of the situation I would be able to better assist you.

[Dave Gonzalez]

As I am pulling the handle.

[KregCS]

Does it make any noise if there is no wood in place?

[Dave Gonzalez]

Yes.
