For some reason you need to reach inside the machine but OOPS forgot to press the stop button. Without switches the machine continues to carve and thus forms a safety hazard (sliced fingers, etc.). Also having the cover open while it carves can have things flying out of the machine (ie broken bits, etc).
So the switches are fine from that point of view, they stop the machine when a safety hazard exists. The stop button to me is just a more reliable way to stop both functions but the switches are still there as back-up.

Not sure about all this!
The main switching ckt. Is in the Controller unit. And I don’t think it matters which way you do an Energy Stop. If the CW does not stop, there is a short in the path and the path is not open.
All these switches are in an electronic path that cuts the power in the controller unit. Any short in this path would not completely stop the CW machine. They all require you to “Press Enter” to restart the CW.
The only real way to be safe is pull the plug out of the wall socket.
