VerifiedHave you checked the speed sensor located on the main drive pulley? It needs to be adjusted 1/8" away from the pulley magnets that provide the speed signal for the machine. Do you see any speed signal on the console when it starts?

If the control system does not get a speed signal, it should shut down and give you a fault. Have you seen an error code?
