Hobart A120 Hello! I have a choice between two late model A-120 mixers, one used for about two years in a small bakery, and one that is brand new and has been sitting in a warehouse for about three years, un-run. The used mixers is very quiet, while the new one has a little more gear noise, especially on the first speed when the power is shut off and the mixer slows to a halt. Does this sound like a lubrication problem, or do the A120s "wear in" and get quieter with a little age? Thanks, Robert

There are several possible causes:1. The blades of the beater/s may be distorted (bent) 2. The beaters are in the wrong way round 3. The bottom tray is not seated down properly - there may be something in the central hole 4. The bowl may be damaged
