If its the belt, throw some used motor oil on them!


DO NOT do that! Check all the belt(s) for like cracks and missing teeth. I would just replace them, they aren't too expensive, maybe $8-12 per. Also, they could just be loose.... If you think its not the belts, I don't know what to say..someone else will pipe in.

Well what have you done so far regarding this issue? Have you checked tension? adjusted them? maybe try and replace the belts first?
