    How to troubleshoot a Hydmech M16A saw that won't start?
    • C
      Casey HuertaAug 17, 2025
      If your Hydmech Industrial Equipment saw won't start, several issues could be the cause: * The safety relay might not be energized. Ensure all Emergency Stop push buttons are released and that door interlock switches are not activated by closing the Drive & Idler doors. * The motor overload may have tripped. Depress each of the overload buttons located in the electrical box, one at a time, while trying to start the saw to identify which motor was overloaded. * A control circuit fuse may have blown. Replace the fuse in the control panel. Repeated blowouts suggest an internal wiring fault. * The vise or head selector switch may not be in the center (neutral) position. Turn all switches to the center (neutral) position.

    Why do I have no hydraulic functions when my Hydmech Industrial Equipment saw starts?
    • T
      thomas19Aug 30, 2025
      If your Hydmech Industrial Equipment saw starts but has no hydraulic functions: * Check the blade wheels. If they run clockwise, there's a wrong phase order in the power connection to the saw. Stop immediately and reverse any two of the three phase connections. * If the pump is noisy, the hydraulic oil level may be low. Stop immediately and add hydraulic oil. * The pump-motor coupling may have separated. Adjust accordingly.

    Why does my Hydmech Industrial Equipment saw start but not continue running after releasing the Start button?
    • C
      Charles GoodmanSep 12, 2025
      On some Hydmech Industrial Equipment models, if the saw starts but won't continue running after releasing the Start button, the out-of-stock or blade breakage limit switch may have been tripped. Reload with stock or reset the blade. Hold the hydraulic start button and release the blade tension or open vises far enough to deactivate the limit switch.
