I was just wondering if other members had encountered a problem with
the failure of what I call the startup safety system. When I first
got the lathe, when starting up the machine, the lower amber light
came on and the machine would not start until the direction switch was
set to the middle (0) position and then turned to the forward
position. Now, I seem to have lost this function, since the amber
light no longer comes on and the machine can be started directly up.
Also, the green light seems to have a lower brightness then it
originally did. My lathe is the Micro-Mark 7X14 and is only about 6
months old. Thanks for any comments that the more experienced users
may have.
