Festool Conturo Edge Bander

[JGuinny]

Hi everyone please reply I would appreciate the help.
My edge bander has been working great no issues at all had it serviced around 6 months ago.
Today I was edging standard same stuff I do everyday and suddenly after I had finished an edge my machine tracks just kept running after there was nothing in it and would not stop I pressed the power button just to try and make it stop and it did stop but now my machine is stuck with a track error display, the track is clear there is nothing blocking it does anybody know any fixes there is nothing in the manual about errors with the machine. Thank you.

Make sure when you look up under it where the banding goes in there is a light sensor that senses if the banding is in or not.  If its dirty or blocked it can throw an error. There is a video on you tube Ill see if I can find it.  Thats all I got, good luck and let us know what fixes it.  Mine is no longer under warranty and im starting to wonder what repairs might look like so if you dont mind post repair and cost.
