Issue Type: Equipment Problem
Area: Woodshop
Equipment: Festool Domino DF 500
Summary: Domino doesn’t always power off
Additional Info: On a fee cuts I couldn’t get the domino to turn off. The button was retracted. While in the off position the motor speed was varying as if it was starting to turn off and back on again.

@sneezix I’m not sure who reported this, but I’m curious if you know anything about this issue. I’m not sure how to replicate it.

I trigger the SawStop once, and now I get blamed for everything???

Just kidding…

No, I don’t know anything about this issue on the Domino. Stan was using it, today, I think, but he didn’t mention having an issue with it.

I appreciate your sense of humor and I retract my finger pointing, ha!

Thank you. I’ll mark this as closed for now.

Either I reported this or I experienced the same thing. I probably reported it. I don’t know how to reproduce the issue

I have formulated a theory. What if it’s not the Domino but the plug I was using? If I recall correctly I was using one of the overhead plugs in the former machine shop.

Just adding anecdata: I used the domino for several hours this week and had no issue.

There have been occasional issues with the power drops; we should double check them.
