BINDS AND JAMS

Noisy, jerky or erratic movement of the lifts is usually due to lack of lubrication of the rods and bushings. Apply a light coat of Lubriplate® or similar lightweight white grease to the rod and bushings to correct the problem.

Another possible cause of binding is improper positioning of the motor, which prevents the gear from correctly engaging the teeth in the rod. To correct the problem, loosen the screws that hold the motor in place and move it forward or backward until the rod has just enough slack to be rotated slightly.

MOTORS AND GEARS

The most likely problem to be encountered in this category is erratic motion of the lift due to a worn drive gear. Failure to keep the lift rod and bushings properly lubricated will cause unnecessary wear of the gear. Correct the problem by replacing the worn gear.

If the lift cycles correctly but fails to remain in the up position (i.e., goes up, but then slowly settles back down into the frypot), the problem is a failed motor brake. This cannot be repaired and the motor must be replaced.

If power is reaching the motor but the motor fails to run, it is burned out and must be replaced.

ELECTRONICS

Within this category are problems associated with the relays, microswitches, capacitors, resistors, interface board, wiring, and controls. The most common problem in this category is a lift that continuously travels up and down. This is usually caused by a microswitch that is out of adjustment.

Troubleshooting the electronics of the basket lift is the process of verifying current flow through the individual components up to and including the motor. Using a multimeter set to the 250 VAC range, check the connections on both sides of the component for the presence of the applied line voltage.
