Description
From the Foreword
The purpose of this book is to supply the practical information needed to repair and service modern home appliances. With the ever-increasing number of fairly complex automatic and semiautomatic appliances employed in the home, a greater amount of knowledge is required to properly and efficiently diagnose and service these appliances. This book provides the reader with the knowledge he needs to accomplish these repairs with a minimum of effort and without resorting to time-consuming guesswork. The text is arranged in a logical sequence. The first chapters furnish the electrical fundamentals and techniques necessary to understand the construction and operation of all electrical appliances. The operation and servicing of resistance-heating appliances, such as irons, toasters, ranges, etc., are fully explained in the second group of chapters. Finally, the motor-driven appliances, both gas and electric, are treated in detail in the third breakdown of chapters. Each chapter is also divided into logical sections that deal with operation, construction, installation (of major appliances), servicing, and repairs. The correct servicing methods are of the utmost importance to the serviceman, since time, money, and reputation can all be lost when repeat calls are required. With the aid of this book, the reader will be able to service and install any home appliance by using the detailed troubleshooting and repair methods described.
