Graphtec fc1500-100 Making Knocking sound while cutting...?

My graphtec makes a knocking sound while cutting... Anyone know what might cause this??? It also doesnt cut, it like plots rather while making this sound...

Art! Hot and fresh.
I love how this thread has a 6 year shelf life. That is better than a box of twinkies.

Little hard to understand this one, but lets see if I got it right ... your graphtec doesn't cut, just plots the points (so the knife doesn't come down correct?) and it makes a clunk noise while doing it ... if the knife mechanism isn't coming down ... it could be detached and the clunking could be from the motor arm hitting something in the head.

I really don't know a fix for that other than to try to open it up and re-attach it.

If that is not it, please do correct me.
