When a jam occurs, the motor will stop and a notification on the tablet will appear saying Digital Clutch

Activated. It's important to note that this message may not always mean there is a jam in the press,

sometimes motor may have just torqued out due to the Digital Clutch being set too low for a given

operation.

We recommend taking the following steps when a jam occurs.

1. Inspect the tool head and shell plate area of the press to determine the cause of stoppage.

2. Press STOP twice to put the motor in neutral (the LED on the back of the motor will change from

green to orange in this state)

3. If you are able to determine the cause of the jam or stoppage, Use the JOG commands to back

off the Tool head in order to rectify the issue. Once cleared hit RUN to continue as normal.

4. If you are not able to determine the cause of the jam, manually actuate the press. Once the jam

is clear perform a full stroke manually before continuing.

In some cases, a hard jam may occur. If the jog buttons do not move the tool head then the Mark 7®

Autodrive needs to be powered down. Once powered down you may attempt to manually clear the jam.

In doing so you must clear the shell plate and confirm that the press can manually index. Run the full

cycle of the machine a couple of times by manipulating the belt manually and ensure the machine is in

good working order. Then you can repower the machine and continue.

WARNING -Never attempt to clear a jam by placing your fingers in the mechanism of the Mark 7®

Autodrive. Always ensure that the Mark 7® Autodrive is off and power is cut off to the Mark 7®

Autodrive before attempting to clear a jam.

If you experience a jam or any type of activity that requires you to turn off the Mark 7® Autodrive at the

console, you may decide or be required to calibrate the Mark 7® Autodrive again. Always repeat the

process of ensuring that the measurements on your brass or ammunition are that same that they were

in your previous calibration – they will likely be within acceptable tolerances.
