Section 2 Introduction

How Your Washer-Extractor Works

The design of the machine emphasizes performance reliability and long service life.

In washer-extractor sizes up through the 50-pound models, the cylinder is supported with two sealed

bearings mounted in a machined cast iron trunnion. Bearing housings are bolted to a heavy gamma frame

for all models.

The 2-speed machines use one dual-speed motor to drive the cylinder using a V-belt drive in wash and

extract speeds.

The 3-speed 18-pound models use one triple-speed motor to drive the cylinder at wash, medium extract

and high extract speeds. The 3-speed 35-pound and 50-pound models use one single-speed and one dual-

speed motor to drive the cylinder at wash, medium extract and high extract speeds.

Variable speed washer-extractors use one motor to drive the cylinder. In all models, the motor is driven

using a flat belt drive.

A door-lock system prevents opening of the stainless steel door when a cycle is in progress. It also

prevents operation of the machine when the door is open.

An electrically operated drain valve is used to retain the water and wash solution in the machine during

the wash and rinse steps. The drain valve closes when power is applied and opens when power is

removed, allowing the machine to drain in the event of a power failure.

The cylinder is designed with lifters or ribs that lift the garments from the wash solution when the

cylinder rotates at slow speed and allow the garments to tumble back into the solution. The cylinder is

perforated, allowing the water to pass through and drain from within during the wash and extract cycles.

Electrical controls for the machine are housed in a separate enclosure located underneath the top cover of

the machine.

The polypropylene supply dispenser is located under a flexible cover on the left side of the machine,

viewed from the front. The compartments are numbered 1–3, starting from the left side of the machine. A

nozzle flushes dry supplies from the compartment with water at the appropriate time in the cycle.

Liquid supplies can be injected directly into the dispenser compartments by a customer-supplied external

chemical supply system. Hose barbs on the rear of the machine facilitate connection to an external

chemical supply system. A terminal strip in the input power junction box provides control signals.

F238000 9

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:

•Disconnect electric power to the washer-extractor before servicing.

•Never start the washer-extractor with any guards/panels removed.

•Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be

reconnected to ensure that the washer-extractor is properly grounded.

W171

WARNING

Section 3

Troubleshooting

IMPORTANT: Refer to appropriate model wiring diagram for aid in testing components.

1. MACHINE WON’T START

2. MACHINE DOES NOT OPERATE AT WASH SPEED

3. MOTOR RUNS, BUT CYLINDER ROTATES SLOWLY, OR NOT AT ALL

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

No current to machine. •Check main fuse or circuit breaker on power supply

•Check control circuit fuse on the control module.

•Check for broken or disconnected electrical wires.

Door handle switch defective. •Check door handle switch operation. Make sure that the

door handle switch lever arm has completely depressed

the switch. Adjust or replace as required.

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

No current to motor through wash contactor. •Check and replace wash contactor as required.

Motor thermal protector tripped. •Automatically resets after 15-30 minutes. Check reason

for overheating.

Motor defective. •Check motor leads and ensure that motor receives power.

If power is correct replace motor if necessary.

Loose or worn drive belts. •Replace belts and/or check tension.

Cylinder jammed by foreign objects. •Check for free rotation by hand. Remove foreign object

(may require disassembly of machine).

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

Loose or worn drive belts. •Replace belts and/or check tension spring.

Motor pulley loose or off motor shaft. •Check pulley –tighten set screw or bushing. If necessary,

replace with new key.

Drive belt broken. •Check and replace drive belt.

Section 3 Troubleshooting

To reduce the risk of electrical shock, fire, explosion, serious injury or death:

•Disconnect electric power to the washer-extractor before servicing.

•Never start the washer-extractor with any guards/panels removed.

•Whenever ground wires are removed during servicing, these ground wires must be

reconnected to ensure that the washer-extractor is properly grounded.

W171

WARNING

4. WASH MOTOR RUNS CONTINUOUSLY IN ONE DIRECTION

5. MOTOR DOES NOT OPERATE AT SPIN SPEED

6. MOTOR MOMENTARILY STARTS ON AND OFF IN SPIN

7. MACHINE WILL NOT FILL WITH WATER

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

Drain valve stays open. •Check drain valve.

Level will not build up in machine. •Check level switch function and drain valves.

Level switch not satisfied or activated. •Check level switch function.

Water overflows through overflow. •Check level switch function.

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

Spin contactor defective. •Check coils and contactor functions. Replace contactor as

required.

Thermal overload protector in motor tripped. •Automatically resets after 15-30 minutes. If not, replace

motor. Investigate reason for overheating.

Water level switch has not reset. •Check level switch, replace as necessary. Check air

chamber and hoses to switch.

Drain will not open. •Check drain valve —might be stuck in closed position.

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

Machine is not draining fast enough. •Check drain valve and drain system of the machine and

facility.

POSSIBLE CAUSE TO CORRECT

No water from service lines. •Check shut-off valves on main supply.

Clogged inlet valve strainers. •Remove supply hoses and check strainers in valves —

clean if clogged.

Defective inlet valves. •Check solenoids for proper function.

•Check diaphragm and plunger —replace with kit if

necessary.
