  • Page 20: Troubleshooting

    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.
  • Page 21 Tornado Whirlwind Floss Machine If these procedures are followed and the problems still have not been located, it is neces- sary to check the control components; i.e. heat and motor switches, heat controls, and fixed transformers, if applicable. The servicing by an electrician is encouraged for this procedure. However, if you have a continuity tester or voltmeter with lead wires, it may be possible to find the faulty component by using the process of elimination.
