Possible Causes

Loose neutral or live connection, Undersized extension cord, Failing internal power supply, Shared circuit overloaded

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety: Unplug before inspecting internal wiring.

  • Use dedicated outlet: Plug the machine directly into a properly rated outlet without extension cords or power strips.
  • Check circuit load: Avoid running other high‑draw appliances on the same circuit.
  • Inspect internal connections: Tighten all screw terminals on the power entry, main switch, and distribution block.
  • Test power supply: Measure low‑voltage outputs from the power supply board under load. Replace the board if voltages sag below spec.
