How to troubleshoot a HARVEY T-60S that won't start?
If your HARVEY Lathe won't start, the issue could stem from a lack of incoming power. Begin by verifying the power supply and lead connections. If power is present and the lathe still fails to start, there might be a problem with the driver, in which case you should contact Harvey Technical Service.
Why is my HARVEY Lathe motor failing to develop full power?
If your HARVEY Lathe motor isn't reaching its full power potential, several factors could be at play. First, check the power supply system for undersized wires and increase the supply wire size if necessary. If wiring isn't the issue, a faulty driver could be the culprit, and you should contact Harvey Technical Service. Lastly, a worn motor will cause this issue, so consider replacing the motor.
What to do if my HARVEY T-60S has excessive vibration?
If your HARVEY Lathe experiences excessive vibration, consider the following: * If the workpiece is warped, out of round, flawed, or improperly prepared, correct it by planing or sawing, or replace it. * Worn spindle bearings can cause vibration, so replace them if needed. * A worn drive belt should be replaced. * Ensure the motor mount lock handle is tightened. * If the lathe is on an uneven surface, adjust the leveling feet.
What causes a HARVEY Lathe motor or spindle to stall?
If the motor or spindle on your HARVEY Lathe stalls or refuses to start, here's what you can do: 1. Reduce the depth of cut if you're taking excessive cuts. 2. Adjust or replace the belt if it's improperly adjusted, worn, or broken. 3. Replace the bearings if the spindle bearings are worn. 4. Replace the motor if it is worn.
Why my HARVEY T-60S Lathe runs at one speed only?
If your HARVEY Lathe runs at only one speed, the driver may not be programmed correctly, could be defective, or there might be loose wiring. Contact Harvey Technical Service to diagnose and resolve the problem.
How to stop tools from grabbing on my HARVEY T-60S?
If tools on your HARVEY Lathe tend to grab or dig in, ensure your tools are sharp. Also, reposition the tool support height if it's set too low, or move the tool support closer to the workpiece if it's too far away. Finally, make sure you're using the correct tool for the specific operation.
What to do if the tailstock of my HARVEY T-60S Lathe moves when applying pressure?
If the tailstock of your HARVEY Lathe moves when applying pressure, ensure the cam lock nut is tightened. Also, if the lathe bed and tailstock mating surfaces are greasy or oily, remove the tailstock and clean these surfaces with a cleaner/degreaser, then re-apply a light coat of oil to the lathe bed surface.
