| Component | Check | Red Flag | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | | Listen during operation | Grinding, squealing, or a dull “thud” (indicates slag interference) | | Steam Pressure | Observe gauge during blow | Pressure drop below 70% of design = restricted nozzle | | Retraction Time | Time the return stroke | Slow retraction (<10% of normal speed) = worn drive gears or misalignment | | Limit Switches | Verify end-of-travel status on HMI | Failure to indicate “home” = switch failure or binding |
