Expert Review
If your big Buffalo mixer won't start, or only works when you jiggle the safety guard, this little micro switch is almost always the culprit. It's a common wear-and-tear item but thankfully, it’s a straightforward swap for a qualified engineer. This small part solves a massive headache and gets your machine safely back to work.
Installation & Maintenance
- Disconnect the mixer from the mains before starting work.
- Ensure you have the correct tools to access the switch housing.
- Check for secure wiring connections upon installation.
- Always test the safety guard function after replacement.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How do I know if my micro switch is faulty?
A: The most common signs are the mixer not turning on at all, or only starting when the safety guard is moved or held in a specific position.
Q: Is this an official Buffalo spare part?
A: Yes, this is a genuine AS156 micro switch from Buffalo, ensuring a perfect fit and correct operation for the FU139 mixer.
Q: Should I fit this part myself?
A: For safety and compliance, we strongly recommend that any work on electrical components is carried out by a qualified commercial catering engineer.
Did You Know?
- A micro switch is a primary safety device that prevents the mixer from running when the bowl guard is not securely in place.
- Intermittent power can often be traced back to a failing micro switch, not a larger motor or power supply issue.
- Regularly cleaning around the safety guard and switch area can help prevent debris buildup and prolong its lifespan.
