1.4.5 How the Basket Lift System Works

When the start switch is pressed to start the cooking cycle, logic circuits in the controller activate the basket lift motors, lowering the basket into the cookpot. As the motors drive the basket lift arms down, a cam attached to the left motor (when viewed from the rear) eventually loses contact with a roller-activated microswitch and power to the motors is cut. When the controller times out, logic circuits reverse the switch positions so that the motor circuit is again completed and the motors are restarted, raising the basket from the cookpot. At the fully raised position, the cam again makes con- tact with the microswitch, cutting power to the motors and stopping the lift in the raised position.
