My mp40qd shook off the glass, does the same when I use a new wet side, only 3 weeks old? I use the spacer, 120RR tank,been working fine since I got it! Bearing bad?
 
How thick is the glass, and what spacer are you using?

Do you even need the spacer? Do you have the dry side supported with the cord clips? Aligning the wet & dry sides can be finicky at times. I’ve struggled myself to get a good hold between the two but my glass is 1/2” thick.
 
Make sure the wet side spins freely. If it is tight it will do this. Some need run at constant speed for a while to break in. Also make sure there is no bits inside from manufacturing.
