Electrical Overload Safety Breaker
The control panel is equipped with an overload safety breaker
switch which will automatically turn the lathe off when the
motor is overloaded or when something is wrong in the lathe’s
electrical circuit.
To reset, wait approximately three minutes before moving the
switch to its RESET position. If the overload safety breaker con-
tinues to open, or if the line fuses are blown, have the circuit
checked by a qualified electrician.
If the feed motors do not function after resetting the safety
breaker, check the fuses on the back side of the control panel
assembly. Following the OVERLOAD SAFETY FUSE REPLACE-
MENT procedure.
Limit Switches
The lathe is equipped with external limit switches which can
be adjusted to stop the travel of either the saddles or cross
slides as a cut is completed. See how-to-use details under drum
reconditioning and rotor reconditioning in this section.
