Problem:

The machine will not power on.

Causes:

• The circuit breaker is tripped.
• The fuse is blown.
• The connections between the power supply and the machine are loose.
• The outlet does not have power.

Solutions:

• Reset the circuit breaker.
• Replace the fuse.
• Unplug the machine and tighten all connections.
• Check that electricity is reaching the machine.

Problem:

Machine beeps when attempting to start the machine.

Causes:

• Coil not properly connected.

Improper coil design.

Solutions:

• Check the connection between the coil and the machine.
• Ensure the coil does not have too many turns or covers too much area
enclosed within it.

Problem:

Water Lack Light comes on.

Causes:

• Lack of water pressure.

Leak in hoses.

Solutions:

• Ensure the water source is pressurized.
• Fix any leaks in the water hoses.
