So tonight I turned the power On on the lathe and blew a fuse as soon as I went to engage the lever. Took me about 20 minutes to find the actual fuse as at first I thought it was the On or emergency switch acting up. Of course the lathe has 2 different fuse sizes and the only one I had in spare were not the type that blew. So tomorow I'll try to find some new ones.
Question is: Do fuses sometimes just quit without having a surge? I've been running that lathe for about 2 years now. I did nothing out of the ordinary so I'm wondering. Why now? It's a 250V 20amp fuse. Lathe takes 2 of them.
Thanks
