    Welcome !

    Make sure you spindle lock isn't engaged and that the door is completely shut. If it's still not working, make sure you have the polarity right. Next I'd check your outlet with a meter and make sure it's hot.

    The spindle lock is not engaged and the door is completely shut.

    Re "polarity right" and hot outlet, not sure what you mean. The spindle operates fine under computer control. Why would polarity and status of outlet, (wall outlet?), be different during manual operation?

    Oh I might have read that a little fast. I thought I read it didn't work at all, sorry.


    Check to make sure all of the wires are plugged in behind the plastic front plate. If it's still not working, I'd give tormach a call.
