TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem:
Motor doesn't run when footswitch is depressed.
Action:
1. Check-to see that unit is plugged-in.
2. Make sure that electrical outlet is live by trying another appliance or a
lamp in the same outlet. If unit still won’t work, return to Proshucker for
repair. (See SERVICE, page 6)
Problem:
Motor runs but bit doesn’t turn.
Action:
Internal damage has resulted either from the unit being dropped or
mishandled during shipping. Return for repair. (See SERVICE, page 6)
Problem:
Rotating bit will not grab oyster
Action:
1. Make sure that tip of bit is in hinge of oyster. (See Figures, page 4.)
Note: Practice will help you to avoid incorrect bit placement. However,
some raw oysters cannot be opened by any method without risk of injury.
If you serve cooked oysters, these can steamed or microwaved until they
gape open.
2. Change angle of oyster - rotate oyster, tilt it up and down and/or move it
side to side.
3. Bit has become dull. Replace with new bit (See page 5, no. 3 for
removal instructions and page 6 for spare part ordering instructions.)
Problem:
Oyster shell breaks during opening
Action:
This can occasionally occur with a very thin shelled oyster. Because
Proshucker applies equal pressure to both shells, this will happen less often
than with previous manual shucking techniques.
