=== The machine doesn't want to move anymore. There doesn't appear to be any errors, it just won't jog anywhere or start a job. === | === The machine doesn't want to move anymore. There doesn't appear to be any errors, it just won't jog anywhere or start a job. === | ||
Check the transparent-fronted safety box on the side of the tank, next to the PC trolley. There is a small rocker switch on the side that sometimes gets knocked - this should be in the "on" position. Press the blue button once it's in the right position, then press the black button on the machine pendant. | Check the transparent-fronted safety box on the side of the tank, next to the PC trolley.

== Cutting Problems == | |||
=== The material isn't cutting and water is spraying everywhere. === | |||
Check that garnet is flowing freely through the abrasive delivery hose. If there is moisture in the hose it must be cleaned out. Occassionally water makes its way into the tool head garnet hopper. In this case the abrasive solenoid and the hopper must be cleaned. Ask a member of technical staff for help with this. | |||
=== The material isn't cutting properly - water is spraying everywhere but the garnet is definitely flowing. === | |||
This may be one (or many) of a few different issues. | |||
* The material type is set incorrectly. Check the material settings and adjust as needed. | |||
* The material thickness is set too thin. Measure the material and compare with the material setting. Adjust as needed. | |||
* You are trying to cut too quickly. This occurs very rarely with very thick material and very low quality settings. Ask a member of technical staff for help adjusting the garnet flow or the machinability grade of the material. | |||
* There's a clog in the abrasive solenoid which is reducing the abrasive flow rate. Ask a member of technical staff to show you how to unclog it. | |||
