    Sieg X3 spindle noise

    I have been running my mill for just a few months now and suddenly a new noise appeared. A whirring noise is coming from the spindle and I don't know why. I was running it at 2800 rpm. It wasn't there yesterday, but as soon as I started up the machine today the noise started and, not knowing what caused it, I immediately turned off the machine. Any ideas are most welcome on how to fix this.

    Belt alignment for me. I run 3600 - 2000 hours now. Puff of graphite on belt can help
    Super X3. 3600rpm. Sheridan 6"x24" Lathe + more. Three ways to fix things: The right way, the other way, and maybe your way, which is possibly a faster wrong way.
