Guys, I can happily say i am the new owner of a new porter cable polisher model 7336. I fired it up right out of the box to see if it worked. (it did) My only question is that it seems loud. I wasn`t expecting wisper quiet operation or anything but I was not expecting it to sound almost like a hedge clipper. I mean, it`s not even that loud, but it was a noise to it. Do other users encounter this noise? I have never come accross a thread about noise so i was just wondering. Is it only me or is the porter cable a noisy machine?

Completely normal. The noise is not re-assuring to the first-time user, but it`s just the nature of the beast.

LOL, I thought the same thing when I fired my DeWalt RO up for the first time. I`d really like to hear the PC to see how it compares.



Hedge clipper is the perfect way to describe it. I would have never thought of that.

Heh I thought it was a real quiet machine. Guess it shows how used to loud equipment I am.

They are a little bit noisey. I do get a bit worried when I`m using mine at extremely odd hours when most people are alseep, but so far, I`ve never had anyone say anything. I live in a condo complex so I don`t have a garage that I can peacefully use it in.
