8. TROUBLE SHOOTING AND PROBLEM SOLVING<br />
8-103 The Vertical Feed Speed Cannot be Adjusted<br />
Possible causes:<br />
- Non-return throttle valves, item 11 and/or 13 on pneumatic diagram, are defective.<br />
- Reversing valve, item 12 on pneumatic diagram, is defective.<br />
- Reversing valve, item 12 on pneumatic diagram, is not activated by <strong>the</strong> switching cam.<br />
Whichever is <strong>the</strong> case, request <strong>the</strong> assistance of a pneumatics specialist or <strong>Grass</strong> service engineer.<br />
8-104 The Vertical Drilling Head Motor Does Not Run<br />
Pneumatic causes<br />
- Is <strong>the</strong> insertion die arm raised to its uppermost position? (Pneumatic position monitoring)<br />
- Remove pneumatic hose “V” from non-return throttle valve “11” on <strong>the</strong> switchgear cabinet, Fig. 4-002-06,<br />
and check whe<strong>the</strong>r air is released at <strong>the</strong> pneumatic hose when <strong>the</strong> vertical drilling head start button is<br />
pressed. If <strong>the</strong>re is no air, this means <strong>the</strong>re is a problem with <strong>the</strong> pneumatic control system.<br />
Electrical causes<br />
- Is <strong>the</strong> machine plugged in?<br />
- Check <strong>the</strong> fuses on your factory distribution panel.<br />
- Is <strong>the</strong> main switch turned on?<br />
- Turn off <strong>the</strong> main switch, open <strong>the</strong> switchgear cabinet with <strong>the</strong> key and press <strong>the</strong> red buttons on <strong>the</strong><br />
<strong>the</strong>rmal overcurrent relays, check automatic fuses or blowout fuse, close switchgear cabinet, turn <strong>the</strong> main<br />
switch back on<br />
- Electric motor defective<br />
Mechanical causes<br />
- Turn off <strong>the</strong> main switch. Check whe<strong>the</strong>r <strong>the</strong> gearbox can be turned manually by rotating one of <strong>the</strong><br />
spindles. This should turn <strong>the</strong> fan wheel in <strong>the</strong> electric motor. If not, <strong>the</strong> gearbox is mechanically damaged.<br />
- If <strong>the</strong> above tips do not help, please call in<br />
a pneumatics specialist (pneumatic diagrams, section 4-006), or<br />
a licensed electrician (wiring diagrams, section 4-007)<br />
