The test run consists of verifying the following: 1) The motor powers up and runs correctly, and 2) the machine is in working order.

If, during the test run, you cannot easily locate the source of an unusual noise or vibration, stop using the machine immediately, then review Troubleshooting on Page 37.

If you still cannot remedy a problem, contact our Tech Support at (570) 546-9663 for assistance.
