No go. Lathe won't turn on.I checked both fuses and the socket.Cover's interlock switch seems physically fine.Manual says 220V but the plug is for 110V and that's what I'd ordered.Don't know what I could be missing.If anyone has suggestions...bring them on.I'll contact Matt tomorrow. Too early to be
Some good news. I got a reply from Matt tonight (wasn't expecting anything on a Sunday).His suggestion was to check the cover guard and double check the cover interlock.That got me thinking that the cover interlock might be sensitive.That is, too far out...no good. Too far in...no good.
So what's the latest Zee? Inquiring minds need to know. Are you getting the tutu out yet? Bill
Up and running!Just a matter of getting the interlock tab set right.But I must admit...I have a nagging thought that I hadn't put the chuck guard down. Pretty sure I did. Nearly certain really. But it was too easy to fix.Ah well. In any case...it's up and running.And I'm real happy with the vendor (Matt). Quick responses, really nice, and very helpful.Played with the knobs a bit. Time to re-read the manual. I was pretty confused with the settings and what the machine did in response.But experience will teach me.The tu-tu? Do you mean my standard workshop garb?You know...I haven't seen it in a while. Now I wonder if some one (i.e. T) took the opportunity of the remodeling to 'get rid' of some things.Catch you later...I haven't seen my favorite sock, t-shirt, and unmentionable in a while. Time for a confrontation.Yes. Sock. Singular.What can I say?
