htrowrod 1 Posted November 1, 2011 I purchased a used Bobcat recently. I have no experience with cutting Vinyl, but was able to cut a couple stickers and some other stuff. I noticed when the cutter is just sitting there waiting for a file it sort a squeals, and the rollers seem to vibrate back and forth. I posted a similar thread on the Sign Warehouse forum and one of the guys said it was probably a motor or a mainboard, and that I should just buy a new cutter. I can not believe that it would be cheaper to buy a new machine than to replace a motor or mainboard. Anyone have a service manual for this cutter or know where to buy parts for it? It does cut fine and if its not on line it is fine. Thanks, Bruce Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
roxanneupnorth 106 Posted November 1, 2011 The problem with buying parts, is sometimes it does not end and you still have a used machine..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snapper 30 Posted March 12, 2012 As long as it cuts right when you hit send. What's the care if it groans a bit... it's just revving to go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jay2703 704 Posted March 12, 2012 Mine squeals and makes a lot of noise when it's sitting idle. It alsways has but always runs great. I thought that is just how they were. After my PCut is seems silent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
