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 />
