Italian term or phrase: andare in extracorsa
Selettore con chiave modale "Rientro da extracorsa":
Quando un asse è andato in extracorsa agendo su questo selettore è possibile riportare l'asse nei limiti operativi.
Soltanto il conduttore è autorizzato ad usare questo selettore.
Estrarre e custodire le chiave per impedire l’uso non autorizzato.

extracorsa = overrun
Is it correct to say "when an axis overran" for "quando un asse e' andato in extracorsa"?

Explanation:
for instance in this example regarding an axis:

"Emergency stop button pushed in (turn clockwise to pop it out and reset).
Machine has overtravelled. (If so, you would have to hold down emergency release and jog off the offending axis.)"

Hope this helps.
