SECTION XIV
TROUBLESHOOTING
IMPORTANT: YOU MUST DISCONNECT AND LOCKOUT THE ELECTRIC SUPPLY
AND THE GAS SUPPLY OR THE STEAM SUPPLY BEFORE ANY
COVERS OR GUARDS ARE REMOVED FROM THE MACHINE TO
ALLOW ACCESS FOR CLEANING, ADJUSTING, INSTALLATION, OR
TESTING OF ANY EQUIPMENT PER OSHA (Occupational Safety and Health
Administration) STANDARDS.
The information provided is a quick reference to help isolate the most probable component(s) associated with the
difficulty described. The experienced technician realizes, however, that a loose connection or broken or shorted
wire may be at fault where electrical components are concerned...not necessarily the suspect component itself.
Electrical parts should always be checked for failure before being returned to the factory. The information
provided should not be misconstrued as a handbook for use by an untrained person in making repairs.
IMPORTANT: When replacing blown fuses, the replacement must be of the exact rating as the fuse
being replaced.
WARNING: ALL SERVICE AND TROUBLESHOOTING SHOULD BE PERFORMED BY
A QUALIFIED PROFESSIONAL.
WARNING: WHILE MAKING REPAIRS, OBSERVE ALL SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
