I did a nice carving today, on a small piece of cedar. All went well.
I loaded a new piece of cedar, to attempt to reproduce.
One of the first steps is the machine measuring the board, as you all know.
As it started to move the board, the machine sounded like it was hard to move the board...like it was struggling.
It got to the end, and seemed to "see" the end fine. Then it pulled the board in further, to about the half way point.
"Check feed roller" error.
I pressed proceed.
it moved the board 1/8", then back 1/8" then forward 1/8", then back 1/8", over and over and over, doing this faster and faster and faster. It was jerking the board back and forth 1/8" at the rate of 6 times per second, when I stopped it.
I then Did a complete vaccume job, flipped the board, even tried a different board. Same exact activity.
Any ideas?
I just checked my head pressure.
Did 3 readings.
130#
118#
129#
This is too high, right? Thus the machine is struggling to move the board.
How to adjust?
