5.23 Resetting the Machine 21.81
If the Power Switch is ON and the footswitch is pressed before the air supply is attached, the
machine will begin to cycle as soon as the air is attached. This can result in the router bit
becoming jammed against the Clamp Foot.
5.23.1 RESET STEPS:
1.
Turn the Power Switch OFF. (This allows the solenoids to reset.)
2. Detach the air supply. (This allows the cylinders to reset)
3.
Reattach the air supply.
4. Turn the Power Switch ON.
5.24 Safety Switch/Safety Buttons (NO) 21.82
The Safety Switch consists of a reed switch (with wires) and a magnet (no wires). It is normally
OPEN (NO) to prevent operation and CLOSES when the Safety Buttons move the Safety Blade
between the switch and the magnet. If the switch fails or the magnetic field weakens or becomes
misaligned, the machine will not correctly detect if a cycle may begin or not. The cycle might not
begin although wood is in place, or the cycle might begin with no wood in place.
5.24.1 TESTING STEPS:
1.
Disconnect power and air from the machine.
2.
The reed switch and magnet are mounted on the case top to the right of the Drill Motor.
