    The spindle is not starting

    Hi all,
    I just bought a CNC 6090 from eBay, I did all the settings but the spindle is not starting, the other motors are working fine,maybe I did something wrong, can you please help me. The machine is using mach 3 software and an USB motion controler.
    This is the link for eBay for what I did buy

    Have you asked the seller about this yet? Apparently they do support through ebay messages; how is that working so far? If you can't get it to work, they claim to have 12 month replacement warranty; I'd be curious to hear how that works out, if it comes to that.

    How are you trying to turn on the spindle? Pushing a button, using a MDI command, or running a program that's supposed to trigger it?

    Hi Awerby

    Thx for your reply, I am trying to move the spindle pressing the button " Spindle CW F5" or executing the G code M03 S24000 and no success. I am in contact with those guys and now we are trying to get a time convenient for both of us, me and their engineer , in this time I thought to ask on this good site maybe I can find something more, I am a newbie in the CNC field.

    Is there an interlock between the water cooling system and the spindle's on-off function? Is the pump running when you're trying to trigger the spindle?

    Sorry but I don't know if there is a interlock between the water cooling system and the spindle, the truth is that I am trying to see if is working without the pump running, I will try with the pump and I'll see. Thx for the idea
