Section 6 - Machine Operation
Since the welder press force is limited in jog mode for
safety purposes, the machine will disable the servos
and report an error (
Fault: Jog thrust limit exceeded
OR Vertical servo runaway detected .) if the press is
jogged down too far. If this condition occurs, the welder
must be re-initialized by returning to the RUN screen,
pressing
RESET FAULT button, and repeating welder
initialization (Step 8).
