Symptom Possible Cause Correction
Motor stalls (cont.)
Low voltage. Correct the low voltage conditions.
Incorrect fuses or circuit breakers in
power line.
Install correct fuses or circuit breakers.
Motor slows. Motor overloaded. Reduce load to motor; do not press so
hard.
Low line voltage. Check power line for proper voltage.
Loose connections. Inspect connections.
Frequent fuse or circuit
breaker failure.
Motor overload. Reduce load to motor; do not press so
hard.
Electrical circuit overload; too many
electrical machines running on same
circuit.
Turn off other machines and try again.
Incorrect fuse or circuit breaker. Have electrician upgrade service to outlet.
Excessive vibration. Wheel out of balance; wobbling or
not rotating concentric to arbor.
Dress wheel or replace it. Adjust wobble
by rotating flange as needed.
Improper mounting. Secure grinder/sander firmly to bench or
stand.
Sanding belt will not
tension or de-tension
properly.
Tension rod is “sticking”; movement
obstructed.
Clean any debris from tension rod and
spring area. Lubricate spring if needed.
Spring is worn or damaged. Replace spring.
Set screw which holds tension rod to
wheel carrier is loose.
Tighten set screw.

12.2 Digital readout error codes (Variable speed models)
Message Possible Cause Correction *
OCL Internal electronic overload has been tripped.
Do not overload motor; reduce pressure of
workpiece against wheels.
OH IGBT protection activated.
Inspect wire connections to U/V/W for possible
short circuits. Verify that motor rating
corresponds to AC motor drive output power.
OE
Excessive input voltage (exceeds AC driver
limits).
Use correct voltage.
LE1
Low voltage; AC motor driver detects that DC
bus voltage has fallen below minimum
threshold
Make sure input voltage falls within range of AC
motor input voltage range. Check for abnormal
load in motor.
LP1 Low input voltage (below AC driver limits) Use correct voltage.
