PEX is becoming more popular. You can't use it where you need structural self-supporting lines, like steel pipe on hangers in mid-air, but if you're installing along surfaces, nothing is easier or

I did a quick search online l. I didn't find anybody making the argument that using PVC to s a good idea. OSHA says it's a no no. I installed mine years ago before I had a computer. It never occurred

Because it doesn't always fail. Maybe only one in a thousand installations fail. The point is that the failure mode can be dangerous -- PVC produces shrapnel, unlike steel, copper, certain other

I can’t say if they have improved the PVC, I doubt it’s changed much. I can’t speak for other’s ressults, can only relay what happened to us and why I wouldn’t do it again. It was cheaper at

Sounds like I need to replace my PVC airlines. I wonder why there hasn't been a bit of problem down at Jim's auto repair shop? It's gets used hard. The fact that his compressors are inside may help

We plumbed our machine shop with Schedule 80 1” PVC back in the early 80’s when we built it. Biggest mistake we ever made. The lines from the compressor sitting outside started failing within 6

I am going plumb my new machine shop with salvaged from my sons different jobs PEX I use in my house and have the tools. Stuff is supper easy to use and inexpensive .

A lot of people I know use Schedule 40 or Schedule 80 PVC pipe to plumb their air lines. A friend/neighbor uses Schedule 80 in his automotive repair shop. He installed it over 10 years ago. He has two

That was great service, and glad you found the issue. Now you know that much more about your machine too. Brian Lamb blamb11@... www.lambtoolworks.com

I was able to punch it a bunch of times to make it work. It’s unlikely to work reliably, but I can just leave that switch alone and use the others to turn off the machine. I’ll replace the bad

if you just ordered the new switch how is it that it's up and running? Agree with Felder tech support being great. Some companies will only help you on the phone if you purchased the equipment new

Brian and others - I got the call-back from Brian at Felder, and he walked me through checking the low-voltage circuits. He very patiently explained how and why we were doing the various checks, and

I don't have any issues with my American Rotary RPC. I bought a 20hp unit mainly because I was concerned about the hard start of my 7.5hp Quincy air compressor as it cycles on. When I bought my RPC in

Dave re you statement below, why would you not have bought your rotary phase converter? does it not do the job? Regards Steve --------------------------------------------

Well, I’m no electrician either, but you need to make sure the switches are actually working. I do that with my multi-tester set for continuity and then manually activate the switches to make sure

Mike - I called Felder and hope to receive a callback sometime soon. I found the “F10” near the floor - it seems to be a breaker for the lifting of the planer tables, if I understand the little

If you don’t find the problem quickly, call Felder technical support. They are pretty good at walking you through finding the problem. Mike

I don’t know, Dave. I’ll check. Thanks, Thomas

OK, Brian, I will do a more thorough investigation of all those microswitches. I don’t really know how to check for continuity, although I get the idea. I’ll see what I can do. Thanks, Thomas

If you are not getting the yellow indicator light when in reverse on the shaper, then that usually means you have something open in the e-stop string. Check all the microswitches, make sure the steel
