Up-Down mechanism jammed!

[Signmaker]

My roller mechanism is jammed in the up position. I didn't do anything funky.
Board is 3/4" thick.

:-x
What do I do???

Thanks,

Chances are you just cranked the mechanism up too far. The fix is detailed in page 40 of your manual under Vertical Lockup.

Yes, there it was. That red handle staring back at me saying "Shouldn't you release me first?"

BTW, info on vertical lockup, if it happens, is on page 37. Ck the red thing first!

Thanks for the replies...

Never overlook the obvious, 'cause its the easiest to overlook.

Mike,

We quit putting large warning notes on our engineering drawings, because it was a sure sign someone would overlook it. (I am not kidding)... we had to go to highlighting the text with pink instead...LOL

Go figure...
