Troubleshooting the Model VV510 Magic Finger Bagger
If the Magic Finger Bagger does not operate properly after completing the start-up
adjustments and timing procedures please check the following before consulting the
factory:
1. The circuit breaker at the power source that supplies the Bagger is in the “ON” position.
2. The power cord on the Control Enclosure is plugged into the proper receptacle and that
power is making it to the terminal blocks, on the back panel assembly where the cord wires
are connected.
3. The circuit breakers are in the “ON” position.
4. The main power fuse in panel is not blown and is installed properly in the fuse holder.
5. The two fuses on back panel assembly are not blown and are installed properly in the
holders. Check motor speed control heat sink.
6. After checking the items on the back panel assembly in the Control Enclosure, close the
cover and check that the main power lock-out switch on the enclosure cover is in the “ON”
position.
7. The power cords are properly connected from the Conveyor Assembly and Closure unit
(heat or wire) to the two twist-lock receptacles on the Magic Finger Bagger pendant station.
8. The automatic / manual switch on the Control Enclosure is in the “MAN” position if one
single cycle per push of the “START” button is desired and in the “AUTO” position for
continuous operation. Note: If the ice in the Hopper is not above the level of the lower
sensor, it will not allow machine operation in the “AUTO” mode.
9. All of the mechanical adjustments are correct and that all screws and setscrews are tight.
10. On FSV (Feed Screw Volumetric) if auger does not run check lower chain and sprockets of
auger. If align is set correctly check top hopper sensor adjustment, reset overloads, fuses
and motor.
11. If after going through the troubleshooting procedures and your Magic Finger Bagger is still
not operating properly, contact your authorized dealer.
