TROUBLE SHOOTING GUIDE

If the unit malfunctions, the following table will be help-
ful in correcting the problem. Since the malfunction
may be due to a faulty connection rather than a faulty
component, be sure to check all connections to a com-
ponent that appears to be malfunctioning.

The trouble shooting table is arranged in the normal
operating sequence of the unit for easy reference. Each
problem has listed next to it the possible causes and
the remedy.

In some cases the remedy is too complex to fit in the
table, in which case there is a reference to one of the
TEST PROCEDURES.

WARNING

ning Gear also removes the retaining Chains
making the gas cylinders free standing. These
cylinders must be restrained by some temporary
means until the cover and the retaining bar are
