    Default Vicmarc VL200 problem

    I have a vicmarc VL200 with Fuji FVR E7 invertor.
    the problem is that the lathe spins in reverse fine and I can adjust the speed in reverse, but will not spin forward at all. Dead as dodo.
    I have checked the little contact switch and that is fine. I have changed the cable from the push switch to the connection block, that is fine.
    any ideas? I am wondering if the invertor needs resetting, but I cannot find out how to do it

    any help appreciated

    I agree with Jim, I've found the guys really good to deal with and the prices very reasonable. I dropped a chunk of timber on the variable speed knob of my VL300 - I think it cost about $30 to replace.
