Problem

The pressure switch has disconnected the compressor (pos. 87).

Cause1

Dirty condenser (pos. 95).

Solution1

Clean the condenser using a brush (a) or compressed air, to rearm the pressure switch with the button on the same (pos.93)

Cause2

Poor ventilation around the slush machine, other appliances discharge hot air in the direction of the slush machine.

Solution2

Restore proper ventilation, to rearm the pressure switch with the button on the same (pos.93)

Pag. 3/26

Cause3

Jammed or burned out fan (pos. 99).

Solution3

Make sure the fan does not strike the condenser or other components (e. g.electric wire, condensate drain pipe or other). If necessary, straighten the condenser or adjust the part to ensure that it does not touch the fan. If the motor is burnt, replace it, disconnect the wires and unscrew the two pins (pos. 104) from the base using two wrenches (b). Loosen the fan fastening screw with wrench (e), mount the fan near the new motor and reassemble the parts following the above instructions in the reverse order, to rearm the pressure switch with the button on the same (pos.93)

Symptons

P02 - One of the tanks does not get cold,even though the cold telltale lightis on.

 

 

Problem

There is no gas delivery from the electric valve.

Cause1

Blown fuse or burnt coil.

Solution1

Replace the 315ma fuse (pos. 90) located in the fuse carrier near the coil.

Cause2

Defective valve block (pos. 91); the valve clicks but does not open.

Solution2

2) Replace the coil (pos. 89), removing the retainer on the coil with a slotted tip screwdriver (g).

Cause3

Faulty fuse carrier contact.

Solution3

Restore contact by stretching the springs in the fuse carrier.

Cause4

The electronic module (pos. 73) is burnt and does not deliver power to the electric valve. Check with the tester (r).

Solution4

Replace the electronic module using a slotted tip screwdriver (f), remove the frame and the screws (pos. 75) located

Symptons P03 - On one of the tanks, in the slush position, the cold telltale light does not come on, while in the cold drink position it perates normally.

Problem

The tank does not get cold.

Cause1

Faulty setting of electronics.

Solution1

1) Turn off the main switch (pos. 69) of the slush machine, pour into the tank product at a temperature of over 15° and switch the slush machine back on. The electronics will be reset automatically.

Symptons P04 - The electronics does not respond to commands; when the top light cover is lifted the motor (pos. 51) does not switch off.

Problem

The tank does not get cold.

Cause1

Dirty optical reader.

Solution1

Clean the optical reader (pos. 58) using a brush or compressed air.

Pag. 5/26

Cause2

Faulty optical reader.

Solution2

Replace the optical reader. Disconnect the threeway cable and unscrew the two screws (pos. 57) that fasten the reader to the bracket (pos. 53). Using a Phillips screwdriver (l), repeat the above operations in the reverse order to mount the new reader.

Cause3

Connection of optical reader with the electronics is interrupted.

Solution3

Check to see if the threeway cable is properly connected to the reader and the electronics. If necessary, replace it. Disconnect the two connectors on the old cable from the reader and the electronic module and install a new cable using electric tape or clamps

near the electric system.

Cause4

The disk is not fastened properly on the motor shaft.

Solution4

Centre the disk (pos. 56) on the optical reader, secure it by tightening the dowel (pos. 55) with a hex key (m).

P06 - In the cold drink position, cold generation never switches off.

 

 

Problem

It always produces slush until the augers jam.

Cause1

Thermostat sensor is not positioned properly in its seat.

Solution1

1) Remove the grommet (pos. 44) that holds the thermostat sensor (pos. 43) and, using a slotted tip screwdriver (f), push the sensor into its seat. Replace the grommet, make sure to fit it properly.

Symptons P07 - All the elements (electrical and mechanical) of the slush machine are in operation, but after three hours the product is still liquid in all the tanks.

Problem

The compressor does not work, there is no gas in the circuit.

Cause1

Defective compressor or electric components.

Solution1

Check to see if the compressor is working. If necessary, check with a pressure gauge to see if the pump maintains the pressure (see gas pressure table). If the compressor is not running, check the electrical components (pos. 8081- 82) and replace them if necessary. Using a screwdriver (f), pry the sides of the plastic cap, remove the steel retainer and extract the cap with your hands.

Extract the components pulling them towards you; with the screwdriver (i) loosen the screws that hold the wires. To mount the new components, follow the above instructions in the reverse order.
