    According to our service manuals alarm 9
    Is the chuck guard switch and even though the switch is open it is not shutting power to the drive

    Re: 96 Harrison Alpha 400 Spindle Fault detected!!!

    I took the chuck guard switch assembly apart and found the switch is fine. It was pressing in far enough to trigger the relays in the back but not
    enough to show the chuck guard open on the screen. I removed the cover and slotted the mounting holes so I could slide the switch closer to the
    cover guard. Where can I get one of those manuals?

    Thank you so much for your help.

    Hi!
    I have a similar problem. The spindle suddenly stops and I get a "Spindle Fault Detected" error but I get Alarm 2. Any idea what it means?
    Very grateful for any reply!

    Hi, do you happen to know what fault 2 is? My alpha 550 is flashing 2. Thanks
