TROUBLESHOOTING 

 

 

LOW PRODUCTION 

 

1.  Check for excessive carbon on the ribbons. Follow the instructions for removing and cleaning band and 

ribbon if needed. 

 

2.  Check heat control for correct setting. 

 

3.  Check the line voltage. A primary reason for low production and poor equipment performance is low line 

voltage. Have an electrician check the line voltage and add new lines for all of the various equipment 

you have plugged into the electric circuit if there is not enough current for the requirement listed on the 

equipment nameplate. 

 

4.  Check the ribbons. For machines with two ribbons, one burned out or shorted ribbon will cut production 

in half. 

 

5.  Foreign objects in the head assembly may short out a ribbon or cause an out-of-balance condition. 

 

 

EXCESSIVE SMOKE 

 

1.  Check heat control setting. After warm up, equipment should make good floss at a reduced setting. 

Never let the machine operate with the heat so high it produces smoke or if you can smell burned sugar. 

This condition quickly fills the ribbon with carbonized sugar. 

 

2.  Check the product mixture being used. For best results, use nothing with a cornstarch base. 

 

3.  Check the band and ribbon for excessive sugar build up and remove if needed as described on page 9 

of this manual. 

 

 

EXCESSIVE VIBRATION 

 

If the equipment is new, verify that shipping bolts have been loosened and packing materials were removed 

from the machine. 

 

When adding sugar to the floss head, always fill it 90% full to obtain a balanced condition in the head and 

eliminate vibration. DO NOT add sugar with motor running! 

 

Check for stretched or uneven suspension springs. 

 

Run the sugar completely out, then check for foreign objects or sugar lumps in the head assembly.
