The machine will not stop
This is a very rare occurrence, as the machine is designed to fail-safe. If it should
occur and you cannot fix the fault, seek professional assistance. The machine
must be disconnected from the power and never run until the fault has been
rectified.
1. Stop switch faulty. Replace the stop switch.
Motor tries to start but will not turn
1.
With the power disconnected from the machine, try to turn the spindle by hand.
If the spindle will not turn, check the reason for the jamming.
2 . Capacitor faulty. Replace the capacitor.
3. Motor faulty. Replace the motor.
Motor overheats
The motor is designed to run hot, but should it overheat, it has an internal
thermal overload protector that will shut it down until the motor has cooled, and
then it will reset automatically. If the motor overheats, wait until it has cooled and
restart. If the motor shuts down consistently, check for the reason. Typical
reasons are dull cutting tools, over-feeding the job and excessive ambient
temperature.

1.
Check the bearings.
2. Check the drive belt.
Spindle slows down during a cut
