Chinese lathe error code(s) list and test procedures

[Steven FrancisParticipant @stevenfrancis]

Hi,

my Amadeal has packed up, powers on but won't turn.

There has been a single error code on the speed display E-04 but otherwise just 0000

There's nothing in the bare bones manual..

spindle wont turn- emergency switch depressed

I've contacted the supplier who initially thought it was the emergency cut off switch.

I checked operation and connections for all of the safetys, main power on-off and emergency.

I received an email – after consultation with his tech guy a new board has been ordered and is winging it's way from China.

Does anyone know what the error codes are for these generic lathes?

———————————————————–

There is nothing on the internet, based on the only references I could to simple devices find I feel that it's a switching relay- physical or board issue – damned if I know.

After removing the control board to take a picture so that the correct replacement could be ordered- I reconnected it and the lathe ran once…until I switched off and on again. One E-04 code then 0000 again.

Unplugged all of the connections board, power, emergencies and reconnected.

Again would only run once and this time with direction switch set to reverse.

Worked through the switches, wires, connectors and plugs individually …nada nichts.

I would have thought that a depressed emergency switch was wrong, they usually need a twist so they stay up and can then be depressed when you hit them in a hurry. They should also only be uses as an E/S nor for general on/off

I haven't used the big red-(ish) button besides checking that it worked, finding out that its not a dead stop switch and thats it. I've always turned the speed control to zero and used the on/off buttons.

If the BRB is down- same with the guard and side-panel breakers there's no power and the display doesn't light. up…which in this case it does.

The manual..pah. I'll l live in hope that there's actually a troubleshooter with more detail than ..make sure plugged in and power is switched on
