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 consists of verifying the following:
1) The belt tracks properly and will not come off
the wheels during initial startup, 2) the motor
powers up and runs correctly, and 3) the switch
disabling key disables the switch properly.
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.
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.
— If belt tracks too far left or right, belt edge
will be destroyed. To prevent that from
happening, you must adjust belt tracking
before proceeding to next step. Refer to

centered on wheels as it rotates.

machine should not start.
— If the machine does not start, the switch
disabling feature is working correctly.
— If machine does start, immediately stop
the machine. The switch disabling feature
is not working correctly. This safety fea-
ture must work properly before proceeding
with regular operations. Call Tech Support
