RCBS Vibrating Case Cleaner Problem

When I first start the cleaner it bounces around on the bench and takes a good two or three minutes to get up to speed. Once it is up to operating speed it works fine. Is this normal?

Are you starting it with empty cases already in it? If so, next time start it and add the cases to the running vibrator.

I am starting it empty with the exception of 1/2 load of walnut media.

Then it doesn't sound like it is properly balanced. Definatly something wrong. Mine will move a little when first started but it settles down right away.

RCBS Vibrating Case Cleaner

I would:
[1] Take it back to the local store, where you bought it.
[2] E-mail www.rcbs.com
[3] Phone RCBS
The only catch may be that you could be required to ship the it back to RCBS.

Check 2 C if the weight is secured to the shaft. Sounds like it might be just a tad loose.
