Fault Diagnostics / Maintenance
Apart from the table and clamp seals, which are considered to be consumable items, the service and repair
of your machine is likely to be minimal. This is providing that you have noted the sections regarding the
vacuum system and heating elements. However, depending on usage, performance monitoring and subse-
quent preventative maintenance may be required to ensure that the machines performance is maintained.
IT IS ESSENTIAL TO READ AND FULLY UNDERSTAND ALL THE INFORMATION IN THIS
MANUAL RELATING TO SAFETY AND THE SAFETY HAZARDS SPECIFIC TO THIS MACHINE
BEFORE PERFORMING SERVICING AND REPAIRS.
MAINTENANCE ACTIVITIES FOR THIS MACHINE MUST BE ASSESSED, MONITORED AND
CONTROLLED BY THE PERSON RESPONSIBLE FOR HEALTH AND SAFETY.
Electrical troubleshooting
BEFORE ANY MAINTENANCE WORK IS CARRIED OUT BOTH ELECTRICAL AND AIR
SUPPLIES MUST BE LOCKED IN THE OFF POSITION. ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICAL
TECHNICIAN MAY WORK ON ANY PARTS CARRYING MAINS VOLTAGE AND SHOULD BE
RESPONSIBLE FOR ENSURING THAT THE MACHINE IS IN A SAFE CONDITION BEFORE
ALLOWING SERVICES TO BE RESTORED.
Faults on electrical & electronic modules are rare but loose connections are responsible for most electrically
based failures. A logical approach to detecting the fault begins with a complete assessment of the fault sce-
nario. Much time can be wasted looking in the wrong areas for faults.
