Test Run

Once assembly is complete, test run the machine
to ensure it is properly connected to power and
safety components are functioning correctly.
If you find an unusual problem during the test run,
immediately stop the machine, disconnect it from
power, and fix the problem BEFORE operating the
machine again. The Troubleshooting table in the
SERVICE section of this manual can help.
The Test Run verifies the following: 1) the hydrau-
lic system runs correctly, 2) 3-phase power supply
polarity is correct, 3) all motors power up and run
correctly, (4) the Emergency Stop button safety
feature works correctly, and (5) the door limit
switch safety feature works correctly.
Refer to Figure 18 on the following page during
Test Run. Each control has an alphabetical call-
out for identification.
Serious injury or death can result from
using this machine BEFORE understanding
its controls and related safety information.
DO NOT operate, or allow others to operate,
machine until the information is understood.
DO NOT start machine until all preceding
setup instructions have been performed.
Operating an improperly set up machine
may result in malfunction or unexpect-
ed results that can lead to serious injury,
death, or machine/property damage.
To test run machine:
1.

ing raise headstock button (O) and lower

— If headstock raises when raise headstock
button (O) is pushed and lowers when

then phase polarity is correct. Remove
related shipping tag from control panel
and continue to Step 10.
— If headstock does not raise when raise
headstock button (O) is pushed or
lower when lower headstock button (Q)
is pushed, then power phase polarity
is not correct. Refer to Correcting Phase
Polarity on Page 22 before proceeding
with Test Run.
