Thanks, Jeff. I ended up bringing someone in to help me with it. And, that's pretty much what we did. What a pain! Who ever designed these heads never expected them to fail, apparently! The actual head change out only took about a half hour (inc

I have been looking at Quad IVC machines as they come close to my budget and needs. I recently looked at a Phillips CSM84VZ in a warehouse that has been taken out of operation locally. The machine has probably been setting for about two years. It h

Hi, Just for info. Hard to buy vibratory feeders on ebay: http://www.ebay.com/itm/380403397600 I bought two of them and perfectly fits to CSM66/84 (and should Topaz also ??). The guy is very slow, but finally sent me the goods. And is worth the mone

Error 215 is due to corrupt memory. I suggest that you start by replacing the Lithium battery on the Mother Board. Next, remove the cable from the Floppy unit and turn on the machine with it disconnected. Goto the SYSTEM menu and find the menu "DATA

David, Assuming your machine has a WHITE controler, not a SILVER controler, there is a floppy drive inside the front panel of the controler. (Remove the top cover to reach the 50pin cable.) If Tom offers you a disk to try in the machine, go ahead. T
