Garage Dad/Son gig here. Yet again, the Haas is down. The Son got out of school a week ago, came out, did his part and CAM work... and as soon as we started booting up the haas it started failing w/ LOW/HIGH gear failures. Some symptoms...
When booting up and the OS is trying to test engage the gear box, I can turn the spindle... it'll clunk, and then start booting. Once booted I can jog around XYZ etc... but if you ORIENT SPINDLE, or try to run the spindle you get a MACHINE LOCK.
Looking over other info.. seems the usual threads talk about clogged air lines, a MAX Soli(?) (which I found on the unit), and something w/ O=rings deep inside and under w/ the pulley and belts. what is this thing called anyway?
I see a lot of different info, but cannot really find a solid post on how to diagnose as yet. Anyone have some insight of know of a Haas tech doc or tips and starting points?

TIA.
