I picked up a Beseler motor base 8922 to spin my JOBO and Paterson tanks. The unit is in great shape...came from a school's darkroom and very possibly was never used. I'm noticing though that the larger wheels connected to the motor turn with a pretty pronounced wobble...to the extent that the wheels slightly rub against the slot opening in the case. Is this normal? I've watched a few videos of this model in action, but I can't really tell if there's a wobble as these units have tanks in place. Anyone else have one of these with this action going on? Thanks!
 
Both of mine oscillate slightly.
