    System 3r magnetic chuck questions

    Hello, I am new to EDM machines and will have a few questions over the next few weeks. I just picked up a Hansvedt Journeyman 201e. I have the original operators manual for it.
    My first question, does anybody have a link to any specific info about the operation of the system 3r magnetic chuck mounted to the machine Z axis.
    Thank you for any links or explanations of how it works.

    I should add that the main reason I asked for info is due to not seeing an obvious difference in magnetic force at the face of the chuck with the lower half removed. (split apart by removing the 2 clamps on the outside dia.)
    Thanks

    its an electromagnetic chuck, it is powered by wall plug or source from the machine. Lite should come on when you turn on, and other lite comes on when chuck is energized, check fuse if no lites come on, check connectors and cables.
