Probable Causes
Continued from previous page.
If one of the above actions does not correct the problem, there may be a problem
with the load cell. Call FASC.
A.
Fries in hopper are bridging.
B.
Improperly positioned drum and/or
hopper or improperly positioned
dispense chute.
C.
Batch weight of 2.25 lbs. (1kg) or
greater has been programmed.
If one of the above actions does not correct the problem, there may be a problem
with the load cell. Call FASC.

Unit was not in STANDBY mode
when attempt was made to enter
CLEAN mode.
If the above action did not correct the problem, call FASC.
B2.
The minimum weight that should
be programmed is .38 lbs. (.17kg).
If a weight less than .38 lbs. (.17kg)
has been programmed and selected,
the unit will dispense batches of
erratic weights. Verify
programming in accordance with
instructions in Chapter 2.
A.
Clear bridging (i.e., clumps of fries
stuck together and forming an arch
over the drum and/or hopper outlet.
B.
Verify that the hopper and drum are
properly installed. If the drum
motor does not engage the drum
properly, the motor may run, but
the drum will not turn or may turn
erratically.
Verify that the dispense chute is
properly positioned on the load cell
arms.
C.
The maximum weight that the load
cell can measure is 2.25 lbs. (1kg).
If a greater weight is programmed
and selected, the unit cannot
"satisfy" the load cell. For best
operation, the batch weight should
be kept to 2 lbs. (.9kg) or less.
Verify programming in accordance
with instructions in Chapter 2.
A.
The CLEAN mode can only be
selected when the unit is in the
STANDBY mode.
B.
Press the RUN Switch once to
place the unit in the STANDBY
mode, and then press the CLEAN
