I got my Fein Turbo II back from the repair place .. I replaced it with the new Makita Vac when it broke, figured I would dedicate it to the SCMS when it was repaired.
So I set it up, plug it in .. fix the hose and hit the " on " and " automatic " switches .. As soon as I plug it in, the vac fires up .. I grumble..
Under those settings, it should not come on unless I pull the trigger on the SCMS .. It should be " automatic " .. So I figure its fixed but still broken.. I remove the manual / auto switch, check for grit.. get kinda ornry .. mutter a bit .. call it names.. and try again ..
Same thing.. plug it in and the vacuum starts .. grr..
Turns out its the laser on the SCMS .. which I never use anyway .. lol It has an on - off switch on the saw, turn the laser off and the Vac sits waiting .. I guess it draws enough power to trigger the vac ..
Thought i would post this for the next fella ..
