When my machine is carving, you can hear the cut motor speed varying, as it carves. 2 days ago, I got a "check cut motor" error, and when I told the machine to proceed, it did so, but the cut motor continued at full speed. You can hear the difference. You can hear the RPM's are maxed out.
After the carving, I went over the machine, and found no lose wires.
I began another carving, got no error message, and the cut motor sounded normal, with the RPM's changing, as it cut.
I haven't seen the "check cut motor" error since. Other posts up here state that if the cut motor continues to have issues, it will generate that error each time you start a new project.
Yesterday, I began a new project, and again the RPM's of the cut motor were varying, depending on what it was doing. Then at about 10% into the carve, I heard the RPM's change to full speed. No error message, no pausing of the machine, it continued its work, but you could certainly hear the RPM's were at full speed. And it continued this way, thru project completion.
Is it possible I have a cut motor problem, and the machine isn't warning me?
