I just got a ZW type R and it is very noisey. I have read that you can fix by using JB Weld. The problem is I don't know where to use the weld. Any help is appreciated. Lenny J

I would not use JB Weld on it, JB Weld is a permanent cure and not easy to undue if it goes in the wrong place.
Maybe you should see if the core is loose and secure it better.
I have not had a ZW with a noise effect. Also there is a post on here about finding a transformer rebuilding service, reply there and see what happens.

This is a great page explaining the cause and fix for the ZW(R) Hum. It is exactly what you need.

Thank you both for your replies. BMORAN4 directing me to the tranz4mr page was great. It showed exactly how to repair my problem, thank you. Lenny J
