CORNERMATIC PLUS
Table 4-3. Troubleshooting Chart
SYMPTOM PROBABLE CAUSE CORRECTIVE ACTION
Machine will not start the
operating cycle when the
duct fitting is correctly
positioned into the
Cornermatic Plus.
One or both of the
start switches are not
being activated
1. Remove electrical power completely from the
machine.
2. Push each start lever in and listen for each switch
to click once. The sooner you hear the click while
pushing in on the lever, the less sensitive the
machine will be to locating the duct fittings squarely
into the machine.
3. If you here the switch click twice when pushing in
the start lever, it probably clicked on and back off.
Carefully bend the switch lever so the switch is
activated after just a few degrees of rotation of the
lever, and remains activated for the maximum
possible rotation of the lever.
4. If you don't hear the switch click at all, the screw
that locks the start lever and the switch cam
together could be loose or stripped. There is a flat
on the start lever shaft for the screw to locate
against. Retighten the screw and check actuation
of switch. If the hole threads are stripped, it could
be quickly drilled and tapped for a larger screw. If
it cannot be repaired, replace the part.
The machine won't start or
will not complete the
operation cycle but both
start switches are working
properly.
Air valve malfunction. Each air valve for the complete operating cycle can be
manually actuated by turning the little red screw on
each valve CW approximately a quarter turn. Turning
the screw back CCW will turn the valve back off. With
the POWER off, cycle each valve at least 3 or 4 times,
observing the mechanical operation of each step to
ensure there is no mechanical binding. This procedure
will show problems such as mechanical binding, any
broken parts, pinched or plugged air lines, low air
pressure or valve contamination.
Head will not cycle. Head power switch not
on, or head not
powered.
Check to see the head is enabled, the head power
switch is lit and PLC input 0.3 is ON.
