I plugged in my new Maxi doser and pressed the buttons to test run the pumps. It made an evil ratchet noise. Of course I let go the button and tried again a couple times and finally the pump moved and worked. The other side did the same. I shut it off and tried again a day or two later and it ratcheted again then smoothed out after starting and stopping it.
Is this common with the Maxi doser and it just needs to break in?
Edit
I popped off the heads and pushed the hose into the wheel tracks. The hose on both heads was out of track. Hit the buttons for the pumps and no ratcheting noise. Maybe the hoses where binding up the heads.
Any chance some gears got messed up because the hoses might have been binding?
