If your Forney compression machine is showing the diagnostic “E-Stop” follow these steps to diagnose and resolve the issue.
Diagnostic details can be obtained by pressing the “Diagnostics” button from the main screen.
- The E-Stop or Emergency Stop is a large red button located on the compression machine or console. It can be pushed in an emergency to stop the compression machine and cause the piston to retract. Once activated, the E-Stop will remain active until it is de-activated.
- If the E-Stop has been activated, it can be deactivated by rotating the E-Stop button quarter turn and the button will pop out. Once the E-Stop button has been released, the E-Stop diagnostic will turn green and the machine will be ready to test.
- If the E-Stop diagnostic is present with “Drive Comm” diagnostic, the Drive Comm diagnostic takes priority and must be addressed first. Technical Guide: Diagnostics – Drive Comm
