General Information
Prior to Service Call
• Make sure the customer has tried resetting the overload
protector and has checked for foreign objects jammed in the
grind chamber (see
Troubleshooting on page 16).
• Before troubleshooting for mechanical problems, determine
if the problem is electrical:
- To determine if the problem is in the switch or the
grinder, bypass all electrical starting and/or electrical
controls and run the grinder direct.
- Make sure the grinder electrical specifications match the
electric power supply.
- Make sure the motor lead connections are correct for
the corresponding power supply and starting controls.
- Determine if there are electrical problems with other
appliances. This may indicate a problem in the building’s
electrical circuitry.
- Determine that the rotary shredder is rotating in the
direction marked on it by arrows.
After Completing Service
• Test the grinder for proper operation.
• Ensure that the Grind2Energy system is operational per
Manufacturer Specification.
• Ensure that all fittings are secure and do not leak.
