xTool F2 Ultra randomly hard reboots during jobs — possible laser head or PSU issue?
Hey everyone,
my xTool F2 Ultra suddenly started rebooting during jobs.
Symptoms:
- machine works normally at startup
- after starting a job, it runs for ~20 seconds
- then it suddenly hard reboots as if power was cut
- no normal error message shown
- the external power adapter also briefly shuts off/restarts
Things I already tested:
- multiple wall outlets
- no power strips/extensions
- emergency stop button checked
- fans appear to work
- lens cover removed
- issue is reproducible
Software/Firmware:
- XTool Studio 1.6.8
- Firmware 40.54.020.00.ht5
- mostly connected over WiFi so far
but some of those seem related to an automatic XTool Studio update, so I’m not convinced that’s the root cause.
xTool support currently suspects:
- laser head fault
- power protection shutdown
- or PSU/overcurrent related issue
The machine is still under warranty (<1 year old).
Has anyone here experienced:
- sudden F2 Ultra reboots,
- PSU shutdowns,
- or defective laser heads causing protection shutdowns?
Would especially appreciate:
- known failure patterns
- temporary workarounds
- how long xTool warranty repairs took for you
Thanks!
