SETUP
Once the assembly is complete, test run your machine to
make sure it runs properly and is ready to operate.
Note: You do not need to install a drum to perform the
test run.
The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The
motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2) the safety
disabling mechanism on the switch works correctly.
If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source
of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine
immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 22.
If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech
Support at (360) 734-3482 for assistance.
To test run the machine:
1. Make sure you understand the safety instructions
at the beginning of the manual, and verify that the
machine is setup properly.
2. Ensure all tools and objects used during setup are
cleared away from the machine.
3. Connect the machine to the power source.
4. Verify that the machine is operating correctly by
turning the machine ON.
When operating correctly, the machine runs
smoothly with little or no vibration or rubbing
noises.

or vibrations before operating the machine further.
Always disconnect the machine from power when
investigating or correcting potential problems.
5. Turn the machine OFF.
6. Remove the switch disabling key (see Figure 9).
