If An Airflow Alert Activates
The most common causes of an Airflow Alert are:
 Blockage of the inlet grilles or exhaust outlet
 Removal of the work surface or grille during
operation
Resetting the Airflow Alert System
The Airflow Alert automatically resets to normal operation
once the motor speed has stabilized.
