3. Inside of material hose is clogged.
Hose will not convey material if clogged.
Start work after stopping operation and check that breaker is off.
Those who do not have sufficient mechanical/electrical knowledge should not do any maintenance work requiring disassembly or repairing due to risk of injuries and dangers of work.
  1. Check the inside of the hose to see if materials are clogged.
    *If clogged, remove material.

  2. Adjust the amount of air intake from the secondary air adjustment ring.
    *If ring suction section (wire mesh) on secondary air ring is clogged, blow clean dry air to remove particles.
