In the event your ATC board has died, and you are waiting for the arrival of a replacement board, this doesn’t mean your machine is down. You can still complete manual tool changes as a workaround.

  1. Disconnect the air supply from the machine.

  2. Remove the solenoid cover on the left side of the ATC.
