[Peter D'Attomo]

Getting an E7 error code on machine for the second time in 1 year. Has anyone experienced this and is there a fix?
Thanks

Hi Rich, Appreciate your info. My question was more about is this a design flaw and has anyone found a solution. This is the second time within a year the error pops up. Replaced both parts last time.

Will the lathe run with the error code? If so just ignore the error code.

no, but if I spin the handwheel it will start

What if it is a design flaw, what would you do differently than just replace the bad part? Did you check the position of the speed sensor? I know some Powermatic lathes had trouble with the sensor coming loose.
