Resetting after automatic stop

A-4
Press the RUNOUT DETECTOR ON/OFF button on the DEVIATION
display to show ON on the button and turn on the runout detector.
(The ON/OFF field at the right of the DEVIATION button on the CNC
INPUT or MANUAL INPUT display shows ON.)
If the machine is started with OFF shown on the RUNOUT DETECTOR
ON/OFF button by pressing again the button, it does not stop even
when the saw blade runs out.
The RUNOUT DETECTOR ON/OFF button can be operated and the
runout tolerance can be set or changed even after the start of cutting.
When the actual runout of the saw blade exceeds the runout tolerance,
the error message E017 is shown on the touch screen. When this
condition continues for a certain time (standard timer-set time of 60
sec), the machine stops automatically and totally.
When the machine automatically stops as the runout tolerance is
exceeded, it is locked in the error condition. Restart the machine as
described below.
1 Press the RUNOUT DETECTOR ON/OFF button on the
DEVIATION display to show OFF on the button.
2 Press and illuminate the HYDRAULIC ON button to start the
hydraulic pump motor.
3 To discontinue the cutting operation, press the TABLE
BACKWARD button to move the table backward, and remove the
work.
4 To continue the cutting operation with the runout of the saw blade
permitted, restart the machine with the runout detector turned off,
or restart the machine after setting a larger runout tolerance. (If
the machine is restarted after turning on the runout detector and
without changing the runout tolerance, the same error occurs
again.)
The above procedure allows the machine to be reoperated. Check
and remove the cause of the runout error (premature saw blade life,
improper cutting conditions, improper clamping, or internal stress), and
restart the machine.
