My Hamilton Beach Bread Maker has been used only three times and now it makes a loud squeaking sound during the kneading process. Is there a way to stop that loud squeaking noise?

I had the same problem. I bent the spring tabs out and it helped a bit. I then made sure the breadpan was straight across the top. That seemed to do it. Only problem now is that I can't find the kneeding paddle.

I finally got in touch with the Hamilton Beach (1-800-851-8900 between 8:30-4:00 EST) and found out that Model 45235G replacement carafe is available for order from them for $25.98 (S/H included) plus state sales tax.
