®
Unit
If you are experiencing dif
¿
culty with your SUITMATE
®
unit, please read through the following pages to see if
the problem you are experiencing is described. If so, please follow the troubleshooting steps to attempt to
¿
x
the problem. If further assistance is required, please contact the factory for further recommendations at:
(Telephone) 800-553-3353, (Fax) 847-742-3552, or (E-mail) [email protected].
Problem: The unit is not working. There is no sound, no hum, and no noise at all when the lid
is depressed.
• Is there power to the unit? An A.C. voltmeter set to the appropriate range can be used to check for
power by measuring across the
³
LINE” side of the GFCI. The GFCI can be accessed from the bottom
of the unit.
• If there is no power, check the wire connections to the GFCI and check the power at the main
circuit
breaker
• If there is power to the unit, check to see if the GFCI is tripped off. Attempt to reset the GFCI
by pressing the
³
TEST” button followed by the
³
RESET” button.
• If the GFCI cannot be reset, it may be faulty and need to be replaced.
• If the GFCI resets and the unit still is not working, please proceed to the next
troubleshooting
steps.
• Is the Micro Switch out of adjustment? The Micro Switch is located on the backside of the unit. In
order to access it, the unit will need to be removed from the wall.
• On the backside of the unit, there is a stainless steel box. Remove the box cover. The Micro
Switch is located on the right hand side of this box and has a small wire cable attached to a
copper arm. Check if the Micro Switch is engaging properly by depressing the Lid while still
maintaining visual contact with the Micro Switch.
• Does the wire cable pull up on the arm of the Micro Switch? If the arm is moving but
does not make an audible
³
click,” the Micro Switch needs to be adjusted. Please refer to
Page 49 in this manual for further instruction.
• Does the wire cable not move at all? This could indicate a broken Actuator Screw.
Please refer to Page 19 in this manual for further instruction.
• Is there power after the Timer? With the Lid depressed, use an A.C. voltmeter set to the appropriate
range to check for power at the #4 (or COM) connection on the Timer.
• If there is no power at that connection point, the Timer may be faulty and need to be replaced.
• If the Timer is functioning properly, the power reading at the #4 (or COM) connection will last
for approximately 7-8 seconds and then shut off.
Problem: The unit is humming when the Lid is depressed, but the Basket is not spinning.
• Does the Basket spin freely? With the Lid in the open and upright position, use a piece of bar stock
or a wood 2 x 4 to manually depress the two Brake Rods that come up through the Top on each side of
the opening for the Basket. Simultaneously depress both Brake Rods approximately 1/2” (13mm) and
attempt to spin the Basket. With the Brake Rods depressed, it should take very minimal force to
spin the Basket.
