Hi Ted,
Try scuffing the surface of the shoes and drum with some sandpaper (120
grit or so)- just enough to break the glaze. Also, dab a little grease
on the actuating cam where it contacts each shoe. Hope this helps.
Cheers,

It not only sounds terrible, but I can feel it vibrating through my foot. Do I just need new pads or what? |
