Problem
Solution
Cable becomes jammed in the conduit
system
1. Inform the people at the other end
of the conduit that a problem has been
experienced and the operator is going to
shut down the system.
2. Shut off the pneumatic air supply with
the Air Control Valve turning it to the 9
o’clock position, allowing the air pressure to
be depressurized from the conduit and the
airblock.
3. Using the counter or the measurement
on the cable, determine where the blockage
might be located.
4. Notify supervisor about problem and
determine a solution accordingly.
Machine speed slows or motors start to
labor.
Assist the reel by pushing it or by pulling the
cable off the reel.
It is difficult to keep the cable moving
near the end of the conduit run.
Assist the blower by manually pushing the
cable into the conduit.
Do not bend or crimp the cable.
The cable run is hard to restart after
having stopped.
Put air to the system with the track down.
The tractor feed can be restarted after the
air pressure has increased and stabilized.
Tractor feed doesn’t start.
1.Pneumatic control is at the lowest speed-
increase flow speed slowly.
2. “E-stop” is still in the active mode-
rotateclockwise to allow the button to reset.
