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 53.
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 set up 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 cor-
rectly by turning the switch disabling key (see
Figure 32) 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.
