8.0 Maintenance and Troubleshooting 

8.1 Maintenance 

 All maintenance on this machine should be performed by trained service

breaker is off. 

c)  No power at electrical outlet. 

a) Plug in cord. 
b) Turn power switch/circuit 

breaker on. 

c)  Check outlet.  Repair or use 

another outlet. 

2.  Display and line light are 

on, but machine will not 
cycle. 

 

a) Front guard is open. 
b) Front guard has not been 

opened and closed since 
previous cut cycle. 

a) Close front guard. 
b) Open and close front guard.

backgauge to front of machine  

4.  Knife cuts deeper on one 

side than the other. 

a) Knife is not seated all the way 

up in knife bar. 

a) Loosen knife screws and use 

knife lifter assembly to raise 
knife up tight.  See Section 7.2

5.  The machine strains 

through a cut. 

a) Dull knife.
