Kill Switch Adjustment

The kill switch is employed to prevent a run-away situation
which could result in damage to the automatic threader.
The kill switch is wired in series with the emergency stop
and results in an immediate loss of power upon activation.

The kill switch utilizes a roller ball plunger assembly that is
situated to run on a track located on the fan cover at the
rear of the machine. When the roller ball head runs off of
the track the machine shuts down.

Use the following steps to set up or adjust the
kill switch assembly:

2. After the set up is completed, position the kill switch
assembly so that the roller ball is on the edge of the
roller track ramp.

3. Depress the roller ball head (by pushing UP on the switch)
until the switch contacts are made. Listen for a distinct
clicking sound.
