router head getting stuck in z postion?

[ilovewood]

hi there, my shop runs a cosmec 250 from holzher. and everytime it goes to do a tool change the head will not drop to pick up the tool. it hangs there for about 15-20 seconds and then comes crashing down and i have to reset the program and start again for it to go.

i relize this is more of a technical question, i was thinking perhaps if anyone knew if there was a saftey mechanism built into the head that makes it hang?

thank you
greg
