    Hi Brian,
    I don’t have a graphtec cutter (Summa) but I don’t think it would hurt to take a look inside -depending on the age of it and whether under warranty I guess.
    If it’s out of warrant you’ve nothing to lose by taking a look and checking fuses, looking at the boards and making sure there’s nothing obvious like a mains wire come loose and groundd against the chassis or something simple.
