Probable Cause | Remedy |
|
|
Motor starter failure. | Examine motor starter for burned or |
| failed components. If damage is |
| found, replace motor starter. If motor |
| starter looks okay but is still suspect, |
| you have two options: have a |
| qualified electrician test the motor |
| starter for function, or purchase a new |
| starter and establish if that was the |
| problem on changeout. |
| If you have access to a voltmeter, you |
| can separate a starter failure from a |
| motor failure by first, verifying |
| incoming voltage at |
| second, checking the voltage |
| between starter and motor at 220+/- |
| 20. |
| If incoming voltage is incorrect, you |
| have a power supply problem. |
| If voltage between starter and motor |
| is incorrect, you have a starter |
| problem. |
| If voltage between starter and motor |
| is correct, you have a motor problem. |
|
|
Motor failure. | If electric motor is suspect, you have |
| two options: Have a qualified |
| electrican test the motor for function |
| or remove the motor and take it to a |
| quality electrical motor repair shop |
| and have it tested. |
|
|
Miswiring of the machine. | Double check to confirm all electrical |
| connections are correct. Refer to |
| appropriate wiring diagrams on pages |
| 54 and 55 to make any needed |
| corrections. |
|
|
Switch failure. | If a start, stop, or table movement |
| switch is suspect, you have two |
| options: Have a qualified electrical |
| test the switch for function, or |
| purchase a new switch and establish |
| it that was the problem on changeout. |
|
|
Low current. | Contact a qualified electrician. |
