I've had my (used) PM 3520B for about 4 months and noticed today that there's a distinct and significant vibration right at 1200 rpm. I did as much troubleshooting as I can and it seems to be in the spindle itself - no vibration from the motor with the drive belt disconnected. Doesn't seem to be noticeable over 1800 rpm or so. Initially thought it was the new jaws on my chuck, but the vibration is present with nothing mounted to the spindle.
The lathe likely has had this issue since I got it, but I only noticed today because my new led lamp that is mounted via magnet to the headstock started to vibrate significantly at 1200 rpm.
The effect of the vibration is noticeable - I was turning a lid for the cremation urn I'm working on, and I ended up with a (kind of cool looking) "chatter" pattern from the spindle gouge - noticeable in the attached photo as a spiral pattern.
Any suggestions as to how if might further diagnose and correct this issue would be appreciated.
