    Multus Emergency Release?!

    Where is the Emergency Limit Release Switch on a Multus? I thought it was a nice button on the side of the controller but apparently not on this new machine.

    Multus may have more than one E-stop switch. Check in back by tool changer, conveyor and on front of control.

    Have you checked inside the electrical cabinet? That is usually where this switch is located. Keep in mind that when you turn on this switch, you should only use the handwheel to move the machine off of the offending limit switch.

    Do you mean Emergency Stop or Stroke end limit release? We're going in 2 different directions here...

    Thanks guys for all your help. I found the little toggle switch in the electrical cabinet. Of course it's a little tiny silver switch. Why don't they make a huge red toggle switch and write out the whole words out so I know what it is.

    What? You want things made easy or something??
    Well done, bet you never forget where the switch is now!
