Stuck hydraulic valve? Are you actually getting power to the valve?
Hoping you all might be able to help us out.
Our January 2002 build sl10 was working when we finished the last order. Started it up ( less than 2 months later ) to run another order and the jaws would not move. Monitor shows that it is clamping / unclamping.
Removed the chuck to inspect, the cylinder does not "seem" like it is jammed up??
Machine has sat a lot over the years ( we struggle to find turning work in our plant ). The fluid looks clean in the glass and the pressure is at ~ 350 psi.
Other notes:
While the monitor says it is clumping and un-clamping, it does not really seem that way?
Thanks for you time and any help you may be able to offer.

Thanks guys,
Going to go try to check on the valves now. Maybe they are gummed up??
