What shops tell us on the phone, and what it usually turns out to be.

|---|---|
| Turret won’t index, or overshoots | Low hydraulic pressure, a worn clamp coupling, a bad index sensor, or a turret motor or drive fault. |
| Chuck clamps soft or won’t clamp | Pressure set wrong for the job, a sticking valve, a worn actuator or draw tube, or chips packed behind the jaws. |
| Bar feeder alarm at the interface | Wiring, a feeder that lost its end-of-bar or push position, or a parameter that no longer matches the bar size. |
