Test Run

Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to make sure it runs properly and is ready for regular operation.

The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly, 2) the safety disabling mechanism on the switch works correctly, and 3) the stop button safety feature works correctly.

If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 42.

If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.

To test run the machine:

1.Make sure you have read the safety instruc- tions at the beginning of the manual and that the machine is setup properly.

2.Make sure all tools and objects used during setup are cleared away from the machine.

3.Connect the machine to the power source.

4.Verify that the machine is operating correctly by turning the switch disabling key (Figure 20) to "1" and turning the machine ON.

—When operating correctly, the machine runs smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing noises.

—Investigate and correct strange or unusual noises or vibrations before operating the machine further. Always disconnect the machine from power when investigating or correcting potential problems.

5.Press the OFF button to stop the machine.

6.WITHOUT resetting the OFF button, press the ON button. The machine should not start.

—If the machine does not start, the OFF but- ton safety feature is working correctly.

—If the machine does start (with the stop button pushed in), immediately disconnect power to the machine. The OFF button safety feature is not working correctly. This safety feature must work properly before proceeding with regular operations. Call Tech Support for help.

7.Push the OFF button in, then twist it clock- wise so it pops out. When the OFF button pops out, the switch is reset and ready for operation (see Figure 21).
