Does anyone happen to have a service manual for the Kinoton SPT 5000 spool tower? Trying to help a friend troubleshoot his, it suddenly stopped working. Any help would be appreciated, thanks!

I do not believe there ever was a "Service" manual for the SPT5000(K). The Operating manual was it and towards the end of that manual is the schematic for the control circuit and on the schematic are the parameters for the inverter drive.

What isn't working?

Thanks for the quick reply Steve. Do you happen to have a copy of that manual? The spool tower was basically acquired for free and didn't come with any documentation that I know of.

As I'm not physically there I'm not really sure what the issue is, but I think the tower basically just isn't starting and running. Sorry if that's overly simplistic. [Frown]

Hi Marcus- -
Do you still need a copy of the SPT5000 manual?
I tried to e-mail you but for some reason the board won't let me.
Send me a private message and I can e-mail you a scan of the manual.
