Advice on Machine Errors

Unit does not switch on
• Ensure that electrical plug is firmly inserted into socket.
• Ensure that electrical socket has power supply by testing with an appliance
(e.g. tablelight).
Film is not drawn in
• Place cover correctly on machine, ensuring that the cover switch on the right
rear side is activated.
Machine does not start automatically
• Film switch left side at the infeed has not been pressed down. Feed in the film
to activate the switch.
Developer temperature too low
• Developer heating is defective
• Capillary tube controller is defective or its adjustment is faulty - call service
technician
Replenishment pump does not pump
• Check whether the replenishment containers are full and that the end of the
suction pipe is positioned under the liquid level.
• Check whether there is air in the replenishment hoses. If this is the case,
check the hose connections.
Rinsing water does not flow
• Open water inflow tap.
• The water pressure in the water supply system is too low: Minimum pressure
2 bar (29 psi).
Water tank overflows
• Water drainage hose (overflow) is bent. The hose end should be positioned
above the drainage level in the syphon (see diagram on page 14).
• Check water drain opening in the tank and the hose for blockage and resi-
dues. The drainage hoses should have a constant fall.
The film does not transport correctly
• Film is fed in and gets caught in the machine: Check the positioning of the
racks in the machine and make sure that the latches on the drive shaft are
closed.
Important notes:
Ensure correct seating of roller racks; keep the lock closed at
all times.
Don't operate processor with empty replenishment tanks.
After a long machine shut down check bath level and refill if
necessary.
