tnwalkinghorse 0 Posted March 22, 2008 Hello alll. I have recently received a P-cut 630 and after all the setting up and reading every post here, I finally got it cutting correctly. However, after using it for 2 weeks, a fan just came on today. Is this the fan that keeps the vinyl laying down flat when cutting? Why did the fan just decided to come on after 2 weekes. So to test it, I turned the cutter off and waited a minute and powered it back on and the fan worked. Then I shut it off and powered on again, but this time waited several hours and the fan did not turn on until at least 25 minutes went by. Any clues as to why this is doing this and how to fix? Thanks, Matt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

tservice 3 Posted March 22, 2008 Sounds like a bad connection to me. Normally a fan is good or bad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted March 24, 2008 Fan should be on all the time, so I think it is a loose connection as well. The fan connects to the power supply, so if you feel comfortable, you could open the bottom of the cutter and make sure the conenctions are good. Unplug the power cord before you mess with any connection to the power supply. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
tnwalkinghorse 0 Posted March 24, 2008 OK...I reseated all the connections and the fan connection and it still operates the same way. The fan comes on several minutes latter after I power on the cutter. When the fan starts if varys in RPM and then eventually gets to normal speed. Any other ideas beside a bad fan possibly? Again this machine is only a few weeks old. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kenimes 42 Posted March 25, 2008 Might be an issue with the power supply. Do you feel comfortable replacing a part in the machine? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
