TEST FOR FEEDBACK VOLTAGE TO
CONTROL BOARD

1. Disconnect the main AC input power to the

machine.

2. Locate plug J4 and the tach leads. See

Figure F.5.

3. Connect main input power to the machine.

4. Make the following voltage tests:

a. Turn the machine OFF between each

test.

b. Carefully insert the meter probes into

the lead side of plug J4. See Figure
F.5.

c. Turn the machine ON and pull the gun

trigger to conduct the voltage test.

5. If the 3.0 to 4.0 VDC is present, the tachometer

circuit is sending the correct feedback signal
to the control PC board. Check the leads
and plug J5. See the Wiring Diagram.

6. If the 3.0 to 4.0 VDC is NOT present or NOT

correct, the control PC board is not receiving
the proper feedback voltage from the
tachometer circuit.

7. If the leads are okay, the tachometer circuit

may be faulty, replace the tachometer circuit.

8. Replace the tool tray.
