Bosch 1250DEVS rattle/clunk
 

My brand new 1250 makes a loud ruckus when in aggressive sand mode. It
sounds like the gears are coming apart. The noise comes and goes, but is
always present when the sander is in "spin down" mode.

Normal? This is my first ROS so I don't know what to expect.

Thanks,

FWIW, I have the same one and it does not make that kind of noise. If
all is tight, I'd bring it back.
