Publication Number: M620919596OPR

Possible Cause

•The product Brix/ratio is too low

•The screw setting for the product consistency control system is set too far toward the “+” position

•The limit switch arm is bent away from the gearmotor and prevents contact

•The level of the product in the bowl is too low, exposing the auger

•The compressor PC board contacts don’t open

•The fan motor blades are hitting internal components

•The fuse(s) are blown

•The pressure cutout switch has activated

•Some electrical connections are not complete

•The main power is not functioning

•One of the bowl seals is not in place

•The dispensing valve has been incompletely or incorrectly replaced in its position

•The free movement of the dispens- ing valve is impeded

•Dispensing valve o-rings are dam- aged

•The bell shaped “shaft” seal between the front of the cylinder and the auger hub has not been reinstalled properly

•The bell shaped “shaft” seal or the spindle bushing seal is damaged or worn

•Auger not turned on

•Some electrical connections are not complete

•The gear motor(s) are malfunction- ing

•The large red bowl seal is not in position, causing the gear teeth not to mesh

•The product brix is incorrect

•The bell shaped “shaft” seal has been replaced without lubrication or is damaged

•The auger has been incompletely or incorrectly reassembled (ie the auger’s gear pins are not properly seated)

Solution

•Check the product Brix/ratio and correct

•Reset the screw toward the “-” position to produce a thinner con- sistency product

•Using pliers, straighten the limit switch arm

•Add more product or turn the refrig- eration “Off”

•Replace the PC board

•Check and correct

•Replace the fuse(s)

•Clean the condenser or add venti- lation space around the machine (the cutout switch reset is auto- matic when the conditions are cor- rected)

•Check the contacts and correct those that are incomplete

•Replace the switch

•Replace or reposition the seals

•Reassemble and replace

•Clean and lubricate the valve and valve cylinder with the lubricant provided with the machine

•Replace the o-rings

•Find the seal and put it back in place

•Replace the damaged/worn seal and check the condition of the driveshaft.

•Turn auger on

•Check the contacts and correct the ones that are incomplete

•Replace the gear motor(s)

•Check and correct

•Check the product brix and correct

•Replace or Clean and lubricate with the lubricant provided with the machine

•Check and correct
