Corrective remedies
1. Check the power supply switch.
2. Check the power supply.
3. Change 2 of 3 wires of the power
cord.
4. Reconnect the power cord tightly and
check the power supply.
NOTE: Phase-lacking is detectable only
when connecting the power.
1. Clean or change the air intake fi lter
2. Lower the suction air temperature
1. Replace the check valve.
2. Clean the Suction throttle valve.
