Instructions for the CPA-2 and
CPP-2 Processors
14. Fuse Replacement

[CPP-2]

If the processor does not function, or some of the systems
do not operate, a fuse may be blown. If nothing at all works on the processor, first check
that the power cord is plugged in, and the outlet it is plugged into is 'live.' If the
only thing that does not work is the heating of the water bath, reset the thermal overload
button. To check and replace fuses, use the procedure listed below.
Turn off the processor and unplug the power cord. Remove
the JOBO Lift (if attached). Remove the two large slot-headed screws in the upper motor
housing (already removed if the lift has been removed). Do not remove the third (lowest,
below motor shaft) large slot headed screw. Carefully remove all knobs (4 on CPA-2 and 6
on CPP-2). Remove the four motor head thumbnuts located on the bottom corners of the motor
head. Lift the motor head straight up from the trough. Let all the water drain from the
pump housing into the trough.
Place the motor head upside-down on a firm surface. Remove
the magnet or cog from the motor shaft. Carefully remove the sealing tape (#70232) from
around the motor shaft opening area. (You may need to slit the tape to clear the three
finger reversal mechanism. If this is done carefully, it should be possible to reuse the
tape seal.) Remove the six small slot-headed screws located on the four corners and middle
of the long sides of the motor housing. Turn the motor housing on its left side (side
opposite the motor shaft). Gently remove the top cover of the motor head, being careful to
not stress the switch shafts. Set the top cover aside. (The CPA-2 heat indicator light is
attached to the top cover and will limit how far the lid may be placed from the bottom
section.)
Locate the fuse. (See below for location, function and
specifications of the fuses.) Verify that the power cord is unplugged. Carefully remove
the fuse from its holder. (You may use a small screw driver or needle-nose pliers.)
Replace the fuse with the designated replacement. Do not substitute a differently rated
fuse! Verify complete seating of the new fuse. Reverse the disassembly procedure listed
above to reassemble motor head. Test the function of the reassembled motor head. If your
processor blows another fuse, contact JOBO for repair assistance.
WARNING: Always unplug the power cord before opening the motor head. Make sure that
water does not get into the motor head. If there is any water (or chemicals) inside the
motor head, do not plug in power cord, contact JOBO for repair assistance. Never replace a
fuse with a different rating. If the processor continues to blow fuses, or there is any
function not working correctly, contact JOBO for repair assistance. Do not use the
processor if it is not functioning properly.
WARNING: Both CPA-2 and CPP-2 processors made since mid 1995 have different rotation
motors and circuit boards. To identify which board, and the appropriate fuse for the board
you have.
WARNING: If there is a label beside the fuse indicating a different value (other
than what is listed below) for the fuse, contact JOBO for assistance.
Note:
Do not attempt to open the top cover by removing the face
plate under the knobs. This access is sealed to prevent moisture from getting into the
motor head.
The screws holding the upper circuit board(s) to the bottom
of the motor head are not turned down all the way. They are left loose (the circuit board
can move) to prevent the switches from being damaged when the cover is installed or
removed. Do not over-tighten these screws.
Visual inspection of a fuse is not a reliable method for
determining if the fuse is good. Use a 'continuity checker', or 'Ohm meter' to verify fuse
condition. If you do not have access to a checker or meter, replace the suspect fuse with
a new, same rated fuse.
All the fuses for the CPA-2 and CPP-2 are rated at 250
Volts. 250 Volt fuses work with any voltage less than or equal to 250 Volts. You do not
need '110 Volt fuses' for processors using 110 Volt power sources.
