I'm hoping some Rainbow people will be able to help me on this one. I really like using my Rainbow D3 that I got at the VCCC convention, and after a good cleaning, and a new hose, it turned out pretty well. The only problem is that it sounds like it could blow up when in use. The motor shakes so badly that I'm scared to use it. If I put my hand on the top housing, it quiets it down significantly, but obviously, I can't do that when I vacuum. I tried tightening a few screws on the underside, but that didn't help. I'm not too well versed fixing Rainbows, as some of you may know.
