Switches
-Important: The ground harness must be connected to the on/off switch, the hi/low/pulse switch
and the motor ground.
-The switches are keyed to ensure alignment.
-The speed control has a single pin and hole for alignment.
-See PC board wiring instructions for switch wire placement.
Motor Removal and Replacement
-Disassemble housings as described in Housing Disassembly above.
-Remove the two ground screws.
-Disconnect the motor leads from the PC board.
-Remove the four screws securing the motor to the upper housing.
-Lift the motor from the shroud.
-Re-assemble in reverse order.
-
PC Board and RFI board Removal and Replacement
-Carefully slide a long philips head screwdriver between the board and the housing and remove
the two screws that secure the bracket.
-Lift the PC board or RFI board from the machine and disconnect the wires.
-Re-assemble in reverse order.
How to Determine Cycle Count
-Turn the power switch to the “off” position.
-Unplug the machine.
-Turn the machine upside down and position so that you can look into the three holes on the
bottom/front of the machine.
-Plug the machine into a power source.
-Count and record the number of flashes from the LED lights; first Red, then Yellow, then
Green.
-Once complete add two zeros to the end. This is your cycle count.
-Example: Red – 2, Yellow – 0, Green – 8. You have recorded 208. At the end add two zeros -
20800. Your cycle count is 20,800.
