6.1 GENERAL INFORMATION
The information contained in this section has
been compiled from years’ worth of informa-
tion gathered from the field. It contains symp-
toms and usual causes for the most common
types of problems that may occur. All avail-
able data concerning the trouble should be
systematically analyzed before undertaking
any repairs or component replacement.
A visual inspection is worth performing for
almost all problems and may avoid unneces-
sary additional damage to the machine. The
procedures which can be performed in the
least amount of time and with the least
amount of removal or disassembly of parts
should be performed first.
Although Vanair
®
strives to anticipate situa-
tions that may occur during the operation life
of the machine package, the Troubleshooting
Guide may not cover all possible situations.
Be aware that additional troubleshooting
information may be found in other sources,
such as the Engine Operator’s Manual.
Should the situation remain unresolved after
exhausting available sources, contact the
Vanair Service Department at:

WARNING
Before starting, performing maintenance,
