it should not be a problem with the pot as most pots in yam products are the
burr and brown and they still make the originals or equivelent but it sounds
more like the nut has come loose on the pot on the internal holding plate
just use some locktight onthe thread and tighten the nut leave to dry before
turning
this is a job for your self rather than paying a tech
