Normal Operation

Troubleshooting

Solution
You may have engaged low voltage protection. This
can happen due to low service voltage or under-rated
conductors. Do not use this device with an extension
cord.
Your braking torque may be set too low. Ensure that
you have followed the instructions for installation and
calibration.
You may have blown the device's internal fuse.
Unplug the device from the wall and remove the cover
using a phillips screwdriver. Remove the fuse and test
for continuity. If the fuse is blown, first identify the
source of the fault. Contact MAKESafe Tools, Inc. for
fuse replacement specifications. This device does
not use a standard fuse.
Be sure to replace the cover before plugging in the
device.
