How to Use This HL600 Fault Guide
This page explains common HL600 error-code categories and what they usually mean in the field. Use it to separate quick checks from issues that need immediate technical service.
If codes repeat after reset or the mixer shows abnormal noise, speed instability, or bowl-lift faults, stop troubleshooting and schedule service.
Frequency Drive Faults
Typical Symptoms
- Erratic speed response
- No controlled ramp-up
- Intermittent stop under load
- Drive-related fault behavior at startup
Common Root Causes
- Drive electronics issues
- Power quality irregularity
- Motor load imbalance or drag
- Control-to-drive communication errors
Bowl Height and Switch Errors
Typical Symptoms
- Mixer will not start with bowl in expected position
- Intermittent bowl height fault codes
- Unexpected stop tied to lift movement
Common Root Causes
- Reed switch wear or failure
- Bowl lift switch misalignment
- Actuator movement irregularity
- Mechanical linkage drift
Overload and Thermal Cutout Faults
Typical Symptoms
- Unit trips during heavier batches
- Restarts only after cool-down
- Recurring overload code patterns
Likely Causes
- Mechanical drag in planetary or bearings
- Electrical performance degradation
- Overloaded production profile
- Drive or control thermal stress
Control Board and Interface Faults
Control and interface faults can mimic other failures. Typical signs include intermittent no-start, unresponsive panel behavior, unexpected stops, or inconsistent speed logic.
These faults are best confirmed with structured diagnostics rather than part-swapping, especially when symptoms overlap with drive and switch issues.
Reset vs. Call Decision Guide
One-Time Reset Is Reasonable When
- No unusual noise is present
- Code appeared once during a known overload event
- Mixer returns to normal function immediately
Call for Service Immediately When
- Code repeats after reset
- Bowl height faults persist
- Speed control remains unstable
- Overload/thermal trips recur in normal production
