DANGER
•Capacitors in the output circuit of the VFD might maintain high voltage
at output terminals U, V, W for up to 10 minutes after power cut o.
Kettle tilt motor (M1)
1. Unplug the machine and wait at least 10 minutes.
2. Ensure resistance between every two of U1.0 V1.0 W1.0 is about 10 Ω.
2.1. IF it reads 30 Ω, open terminal box of the motor and re-wire the motor in delta.
2.2. IF SHORT CIRCUIT, open the terminal box on the motor, repeat the measurement. IF
short circuit confirmed inside the motor, replace the motor with gearbox.
2.3. IF OPEN CIRCUIT, ensure continuity and terminal tightening for the wires: U1.0 ;
V1.0 ; W1.0 . Open the terminal box of the motor, repeat the measurements. IF open
circuit confirmed inside the motor, replace the motor with gearbox.
3. Ensure there is open circuit (no ground fault) between the ground and any of U1.0 ; V1.0 ;
W1.0 . IF ground fault found, replace the motor with gearbox.
4. Ensure continuity and terminal tightening for GND.7 . Replace fault motor cable.
5. Remove the grilled cap from the motor that covers the cooling impeller. Ensure the im-
peller can rotate as driven by hand.
5.1. IF impeller cannot rotate, or can rotate only with significant eort, then take o motor
with gearbox from the kettle and repeat the test. IF impeller still cannot rotate, replace
the motor with gearbox.
6. Before replacing ensure the new motor is wired in delta.
Mixer motor (M2)
1. Unplug the machine and wait at least 10 minutes.
2. Ensure resistance between every two of U2.0 V2.0 W2.0 is about 26 Ω.
2.1. IF it reads 78 Ω, open terminal box of the motor and re-wire the motor in delta.
2.2. IF SHORT CIRCUIT, open the terminal box on the motor, repeat the measurement. IF
short circuit confirmed inside the motor, replace the motor with gearbox.
2.3. IF OPEN CIRCUIT, ensure continuity and terminal tightening for the wires: U2.0 ;
V2.0 ; W2.0 ; U2.1 ; V2.1 ; W2.1 . Check the terminal block J for open circuit. Re-
place fault terminal block. Open the terminal box of the motor, repeat the measure-
ments. IF open circuit confirmed inside the motor, replace the motor with gearbox.
3. Ensure there is open circuit (no ground fault) between the ground and any of U2.0 ; V2.0 ;
W2.0 . IF ground fault found, replace the motor with gearbox.
4. Remove the grilled cap from the motor that covers the cooling impeller. Ensure impeller
can rotate as driven by hand.
4.1. IF impeller cannot rotate, or can rotate only with significant eort, then take o the
motor with gearbox from the mixer shaft and repeat the test. IF it still cannot rotate,
replace the motor with gearbox.
