There is a motor overload switch that needs to be reset if you happened
to attempt to use it as a monster truck and crush that tool you left in
there by accident.

Out of curiosity:
 
Does anyone out there know if there is some sort of safety feature on
the
roller of a Sinterstation, such as a disengage clutch, to keep it from
crushing the heck out of an obstacle inadvertently left in its path?
Or I
suppose to keep it from tearing up the drive train of the roller
mechanism.

 
All replies greatly appreciated.
