PROBLEM SOLUTION
Oil is not being applied to
the lane.
1. Check the wicking foams. Rotate or replace them if
needed.
2. Make sure there is oil in the oil tank and that the oil level
is above the bottom mark on the oil level indicator tube.
3. Check the buffer pressure with the Buffer Pressure
Adjustment Tool and adjust as needed.
4. Check that the buffer solenoids are working. (Listen for
them to engage.) If they are not working, trace the
wiring back to the Control Enclosure to ensure the
wiring is intact and the connections have not worked
loose. Check the fuse. Refer to the Maintenance
section for information about accessing and replacing
the fuses. If the solenoids are still not working, replace
them. Refer to the Parts section for part numbers.
Parts of the oil pattern
looks like a “washboard.”
Increase the buffer pressure. Refer to the Maintenance
section for instructions about how to do this.
If changing the buffer pressure does not eliminate the
problem, replace the buffer brush. Refer to the Maintenance
section for information about how to replace the brush and
refer to the Parts section for part numbers.
The amount of oil being
applied is less than it used
to be.
1. Ensure the oiling and buffing distances have not been
changed.
2. Ensure the oil level is above the bottom mark on the oil
level indicator tube.
3. Rotate or replace the wicking foams. Refer to the
Maintenance section for information about how to rotate
the wicking foams or install new wicking foams, and
refer to the Parts section for part numbers.
The machine hums or
drones when it is buffing.
The buffer brush pressure is too high. Reposition the buffer
brush to reduce the pressure. Refer to the Maintenance
section for information about positioning the buffer brush.
