TEST EQUIPMENT
Circuit testing device (one of any of the following)
Neon Light tester
Voltmeter with lead wires
IF EQUIPMENT IS DEAD ELECTRICALLY
Check power supply, is the machine plugged in and the switch turned on? Check electric
outlet and protective devices-fuse. Circuit breaker, etc. Will another appliance operate from
the same outlet? Check the outlet with a circuit tester.
If you are sure of current at your wall outlet, then the problem is probably in the equipment.
After checking over the mentioned items and the equipment is still inoperative, the trouble is
in one of the components. It is best to have them checked by a competent electrician or
returned to Gold Medal for repair. However, here is a simple check you can perform to
determine which component is at fault.
Disconnect motor lead wires and induce current directly into the motor. If the motor runs,
you have a faulty motor switch. If the motor fails to run, it is the faulty part. When removing
wires be sure to remember which terminals they came from and that you return them to the
correct terminals.
IF MOTOR RUNS, BUT EQUIPMENT FAILS TO PRODUCE FLOSS
On equipment without a voltmeter, a circuit tester can be used to determine if you have
current to the brushes. Remove the brushes. With the equipment plugged in and switches
on, touch a lead wire from the circuit tester to the inside of the brush holder. If the tester
shows current to the brushes, your problem is in the head assembly.
1. Check the floss head to make sure there is sugar present.
2. Check the brushes-are they sitting flush against the slip rings and bear no evidence of
arcing?
3. Check connections on the brush lead wires.
4. Check ribbons for excessive carbonization-the ribbons may be completely clogged with
carbon, disassemble the band and ribbons as described previously in this manual.
