6.4 Troubleshooting the Built-In Filtration System (cont.)
PROBLEM PROBABLE CAUSES CORRECTIVE ACTION
B. Improperly installed or prepared
filter pan components.
Test: Close the drain valve.
Move the filter handle to the OFF
position, pull the filter pan (and
Power Shower, if so equipped)
from the unit. Move the filter
handle to the ON position.
If a strong stream of air is being
pumped out of the oil return port
(or the Power Shower port), the
problem is with the filter pan
components.
B. Remove the oil from the filter pan
and replace the filter paper,
ensuring that the filter paper
support screen is in place under
the paper.
If this does not correct the
problem, the filter tube suction
tube is probably blocked. Remove
the blockage using a thin, flexible
wire. If unable to remove the
blockage, call FASC.
Pump starts, but no
transfer takes place
or the transfer is very
slow. (cont.)
C. Improperly installed or prepared
filter pan components.
C. Verify that filter connection
O-rings are present and in good
condition.
Replace the filter paper, ensuring
that the filter paper support screen
is properly positioned under the
paper.
A. Plugged openings or solidified
shortening in the Power Shower.
Test: Look for oil squirting out
around the Power Shower gasket.
If so, Power Shower is obstructed.
A. Clean the Power Shower per
instructions in Chapter 5 of this
manual.
B. Missing/worn O-rings and gasket
on Power Shower.
B. Verify that O-rings and gasket are
present and in good condition.
Power Shower is not
spraying properly.
C. Missing paper in filter pan. (This
causes too much pressure in the
oil return lines, resulting in a
strong flow through the Power
Shower, but also squirting of oil
from around the gasket.)
C. Verify that filter paper is properly
installed in the filter pan.
