Purifier alarm "oil leakage from bowl"
Bowl routine done.all orings changed.friction pad changed.belt changed.still same alram on starting.

When feed is given bowl rpm reduce.amps also increasing.bowl closing water also is getting drained.think bowl is not closing.

Purifier cannot pass leakage test so cannot run purifier.getting shutoff by itself

Working these machines over the years, i was amazed at how critical the water supply is to its operations. Thanks for giving us an update, so often we don't hear, and therefore don't learn.
