Thread: Just bought a S/H Warco WM250 it will not start!

Thanks for the quick feedback, it was the gear case interlock that was the problem, all is fine now. I think George was correct in that the bracket may have been bent.

Hi

My first post on the forum. I bought a 2 year old Warco WM250 lathe earlier in the week ( its in in great condition and has been enhancec with proper bearings etc). Obviously it was working when I bought it and all we did to load it in the car was to unplug it trip the trip isolation switch, then remove the tailstock, splash tray, rear splash tray and the chuck safety guard. The chuck safety guard switch has been imobiised by the previous owner. It is still on the garage floor but l plugged it jn this morning to show my wife that it really is quiet but it will not start, it does not appear to be getting any power? I presume that the orange lens between the start and stop buttons should light up if the lathe is plugged in and isolation switch set to on., because nothjng is lighting up. To activate the isolation switch I have rotated it in the direction shown on the switch button and allowed it pop up, but nothing appears to be powering up or run. I hope I am just doing something stupid and that the someone will point me in the correct direction.

Thanks in advance

Dave
