Banebot P60 Help
We are having problems with our elevator motor. We are using a 550 motor with a 16:1 P60 gearbox and for some reason it only spins occasionally. We are controlling it with a jaguar and whenever the operator pushes the button to activate the motor the jaguar gets signal but the motor doesn't always move. If we get it starting by pulling the belt, the motor will start working but without that it is very inconsistent. Any ideas?
