Why does my Teknatool Power Tool show 'RP State Error'?
- E
  Elizabeth WalkerAug 18, 2025
  The 'RP State Error' on your Teknatool Power Tool indicates a fault with the rotor position state. This means the optical sensors providing spindle position feedback are either obscured, damaged, disconnected, or covered in dust. To resolve this, try spinning the spindle by hand to create a draught that might clean the sensor. If the error persists, power off and disconnect the machine. Remove the upper rear cover and vacuum any wood dust, being careful not to get too close to the electronics. Also, vacuum dust from the vent on the front of the headstock underneath the spindle. Repeat this process a few times. You can also try blowing the dust off with a vacuum or compressed air pistol before replacing the cover.

What to do if my Teknatool Nova Voyager DVR Power Tool shows 'PFC Corrector' error?
- K
  Kimberly McconnellAug 21, 2025
  If your Teknatool Power Tool displays a 'PFC Corrector' error, it means the built-in voltage and temperature sensors have detected a fault. First, check the temperature of the lower section of the headstock. If it's very hot, turn off the main switch and let the machine cool down. If the temperature isn't high, the computer might have detected an under- or overvoltage from the mains power. Turn off the machine and reboot it. The DVR motor has a high level of protection and constantly checks conditions.

How to fix a Teknatool Nova Voyager DVR Power Tool when the attached tool does not run true?
- A
  Andrew CampbellAug 28, 2025
  If the attached tool on your Teknatool Power Tool doesn't run true, the solution depends on where the run-out is detected: 1. Inside the spindle: Replace the entire spindle assembly. 2. Morse taper tool/arbour: Clean all contact surfaces. If the tool still doesn't run true after cleaning, try replacing it. 3. Chuck: Replace the chuck. 4. Attached tool: Ensure the tool is properly mounted on the chuck.

What to do if Teknatool Drill shows RP State Error flashing?
- D
  David CurtisAug 30, 2025
  If the Teknatool Drill displays an 'RP State Error' flashing, it indicates a rotor position state fault, potentially due to obscured, damaged, or disconnected optical sensors, or dust accumulation. First, try spinning the spindle by hand to generate a draught that might clean the sensor. If the error persists, turn off the machine, disconnect it from the power, remove the upper rear cover, and vacuum any wood dust, being careful around the electronics. Also, vacuum dust from the vent on the front of the headstock under the spindle. Repeat this process a few times. You can also try using compressed air to blow the dust off. Then, replace the cover.
