double mitre saw trouble

[Timh]

I have a Cassese double mitre saw and the left hand saw blade sticks after the cut, including the compressed air fed pads to hold the moulding, and the blade doesn't return until you switch off all power
Has anyone had this before and solved it or does anyone know of a service company to give it an overhaul
Thanks
Tim

I would give Neil Stout framingengineer.com a shout, mine has the same problem occasionally it may be valves sticking or something electrical Neil has now fixed it but I can't remeber what the cause of it was.

Hope that helps.

Thanks for the contact

Glad to be of help. Neil keeps my ageing 939 going with a bit of TLC and also services the rest of my gear well he is there.

[Graysalchemy]

I have jinxed myself, mine is doing the same again perhaps Neil didn't fix that problem last time he was up

[Timh]

oh no.
he mentioned something about the front sensor in an e mail

we will be speaking wed pm and he is going to talk me through it

if it works, I will post up what we did. wish us luck??!!

[Graysalchemy]

Yes mine was a sensor because my bin was too full and there was a bit of wood stopping the blades from moving

Working again now

I did tell him that he didn't empty the bin for me when he serviced it

[Timh]

where about is the sensor

we're going to have a look in the morning for bits of wood stopping the blade from returning
Thanks for this
Appreciate it

[Timh]

just to say thanks

problem sorted
found a huge chunk of moulding hidden deep in side the saw

[Graysalchemy]

I always fear the worst but there is usually a simple solution. Neil I find will always talk you through and try and sort it out over the phone if it is something simple.

[Timh]

really appreciate the contact
Neil was a good chap to speak with

Thanks Again
Tim
