This section explains how to test the continuity
of electrical components in the FT42-E Feed
Table.

Testing the Continuity of a
Toggle Switch

WARNING

To avoid the possibility of electric shock,

disconnect the machine from the power

source before testing.

1. Disconnect the machine from the power

source.

2. Disconnect the terminal wires from the

switch.

3. Obtain a continuity tester or a volt-ohm

meter. If neither of these instruments is
available, make a continuity tester using a
battery and a bulb. (See Figure 4-1.)

4. Connect the wires of the continuity tester to

the switch terminals, as shown in Figure 4-1,
and test the switch in the ON and OFF
positions. The switch should show
continuity only when in the ON position.
