Damaged power cord
If the power cord is damaged, it must be replaced with an approved
cord that includes a continuous line to ground (earth). Return unit to
Fogmaster or authorized importing distributor for service.
WARNING: A continuous ground (earth) line in the
power cord is essential for safe operation. Do not
operate machine without a continuous line to earth.
Replace motor
Excessive wear on the motor commutator will shorten brush life
unacceptably. In this case, you must replace the motor (see “Simple Setup
for Maintenance”). Disconnect motor wires and remove old motor. Note
the sequence and orientation of the plastic motor gaskets and metal
torque ring.
Replace motor and reinstall gaskets and torque ring in proper
sequence. The bent tab on the torque ring must face the motor and be
seated in the small hole on the motor frame.
Reconnect electrical lines as shown on the circuit diagram.
Replace fan blades
Twisting the machine aggressively while it is running will cause the
fan blades to flex and rub against the fan housing with a shrill, grinding
noise. Repeated flexing will eventually cause the fan blades to fail; the
motor will operate but not blow air.
To replace fan blade, open power head (see “Simple Setup for
Maintenance”) and remove motor. Straighten the three bent tabs holding
the fan housing to the motor frame. Remove fan housing and unscrew the
1/2” nut holding fan blade to motor shaft. Replace fan blade (part number
= 040) and reassemble.
NOTE: You may have to remove motor brushes and the aluminum
armature bracket to grip the armature so it does not rotate when you
unscrew nut.
