Problem with pedal: HD300

Hi guys, so far I'm loving my HD300, but I have one problem with pedal. First thing is that it moves quite heavily - but it isn't worying itself, and it is not that I can't move it at all. But it may be relevant in this case. Also, pedal button (under toes) is VERY hard to press. I have to stand up to do it, pressing when I'm sitting is possible, but very hard. Surely I can't switch it on the fly.

 

My biggest problem, however, is that pedal makes squeaky noise while being used. I mean pedal itself, not in my phones. It is like some old door or two pieces of rubber rubbing against each other.

 

What can be done? I guess it is not normal. Should I loosen some screw? Use some oil? Durex lub probably won't work, eh? Or send it back to a seller?

    The toe switch is very hard to activate at first; it will loosen up over time. What you are expereincing there is normal.

     

    There is a nut beneath the pedal that you can use to tighten/loosen the operation of the pedal. Sounds like you need to loosen that up a bit to eliminate the squeak and make the pedal move more freely. Just turn the device upside down to see the nut. All you will need is the right wrench.
