pungohboy 0 Posted May 2, 2009 Hey Ken, my blade holder is not lifting. It is grounded to the stand and wall outlet. I have tried the dryer sheet and pulled the black cover off it to see if there is anything I can see wrong with it. It all looks fine. Any other suggestion or can you send me a new carriage? Vinyl cutter model MH871 Date purchased Nov. 11, 2008 but the payment didnt clear till the 14th if that matters and it was on Ebay. So its not quite 6 months. Connection method Serial Software SBE Operating system Vista Material 651 Please let me know something ASAP I can call in if you need me to. I guess I am going to have to setup my P-Cut to get me through till this gets fixed :'( Hopefully it still works it started collecting dust when the MH got here.

sheepdog 0 Posted May 11, 2009 I don't know if this will help but when my MH365 was doing the same thing I took the cover off of my blade carrier and powered it up with the cover off. (3 screws) I had to put something in there so it would not hit the red button. (small screwdriver) It would work as long as the cover was off. On the inside of the cover was a small tit of plastic that I could not tell if it was hitting or not. Took a dremel tool and ground it off flat. When I put it back together I only used 2 screws (the 2 on the right side) When I looked into the holes to put the screws in one was off just a bit. I don't know if it was causing something to bind or if it was the tit I removed but (knock on wood) it has worked perfectly ever since. I'm actually using less pressure and getting better cuts. Hope this helps. John Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pungohboy 0 Posted May 12, 2009 Thanks for the input, I did try it without the black cover and it didnt help. USC is sending me a new Motherboard. Mine was just flopping around the clips to hold it didn't do their job. So they think it got grounded out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
