Twin-Axis
Sheathing Saw: Maintenance
When a sensor trip occurs, the safety controller, located in the controls enclosure,
displays which sensor is tripped. If the safety controller displays Rip Blade Temp
or CC Blade Temp, turn off power to the saw and let the saw rest until the blade
cools down and the safety controller has reset itself. Under no circumstances
should you attempt to manually cool the blade.
VFD (Variable Frequency Drive)
A VFD is an important part of several electrical circuits in the
Twin-Axis
Sheathing
Saw. Verifying the voltage in and out of the VFD is always a good first step in the
electrical troubleshooting process. See Figure 5-20 for the location of each VFD
located inside the main electrical enclosure.
Figure 5-20: VFD Location and Function
If the VFD experiences a fault, the error
code will display on the VFD display
(Figure 5-21).
