slice&dice 2,450 Posted June 23, 2012 I am not an owner of Copam machine, but you might want to check out the STOP (home switch) button, sometimes they fail. USCutter sells replacement buttons for other cutters, maybe they can help with obtaining the one suitable for your particular one. http://www.uscutter.com/Replacement-Home-Switch-for-US-Cutter-MH-Series-Cutters-RFPHOMESWTCH Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

vinylmotivations 143 Posted June 23, 2012 Maybe check the driver you are using in the software...? It is possible the driver selected is for the larger machine- so say, you have a 24" cuttter, it now THINKS it is a 48" and will ram into the side every time.

anil cs 0 Posted June 26, 2012 mars, if I replaced the blade holder carriage, the problem can be solved? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mars 45 Posted June 27, 2012 Anil, I would not just replace the blade holder carriage - although you may find out that it needs to be replaced. First try getting support from USCutter - or whoever you purchased from. http://support.uscutter.com/ Good luck, Mike Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
