All routine maintenance should be handled by skilled, ex-
perienced personnel. Your dealer can help you establish a
standard procedme.
For your safety, keep the unit area clear and free of com-
bustible materials, gasoline, and other flamlnable liquids and
vapors.
To assure proper functioning of the unit, flow of combus-
tion and ventilating air must not be obstructed fiom reaching
the unit. Clearance of at least 30 in. is required on all sides
except the duct side.
MAINTENANCE AND CARE FOR THE
EQUIPMENT OWNER
Before proceeding with those things you might want to
maintain yoursell; please carefully consider the t\_llowing:
1. TURN OFF GAS SUPPLY AND ELECTRICAL
POWER TO YOUR UNIT BEFORE SERVICING
OR PERFORMING MAINTENANCE.
2. Do not turn off electrical power to this unit without
first turning off the gas supply.
3. When removing access panels or performing main-
tenance functions inside your unit, be aware of sharp
sheet metal parts and screws. Although special care
is taken to reduce sharp edges to a minilnum, be ex-
tremely careful when handling parts or reaching into
the unit.
Air Filters -- Air filter(s) should be checked at least ev-
ery 3 or 4 weeks and changed or cleaned whenever it be-
comes dirty. Dirty filters produce excessive stress on the blower
motor and can cause the motor to overheat and shut do,am.
Table 1 indicates the correct filter size for your unit. Refer
to Fig. 5 to access the filter(s).
To replace or inspect filter(s) (or accessory filter rack when
supplied):
1. Remove the filter access panel using a 5/16-in.nut driver.
2. Relnove the filter(s) by pulling the filter(s) out of the unit.
If the fitter(s) is dirty, clean or replace with new one.
When installing the new filter(s), note the direction of the
ail_ow arrows on the filter fiame.
If you have dit_cutty in locating your air filter(s), or if
you have questions concerning proper filter maintenance, con-
tact your dealer for instructions. When replacing filters, al-
ways use the same size and type of filter that was supplied
originally by the installer.
Never operate your unit without filters in place. Failure
to heed this warning may result in damage to the blower
motor and/or compressor. An accumulation of dust and
lint on internal parts of your unit can cause loss of ef-
ficiency and, in some cases, fire.
Heat Exchanger-- To ensure dependable and efficient
heating operation, the heat exchanger should be checked by
a qualified maintenance person before each heating season,
and cleaned when necessary. This checkout should not be
attempted by anyone not having the required expertise and
equipment to properly do the job. Checking and/or cleaning
the heat exchanger involves removing the gas controls as-
sembly and the flue collector box cover and, when com-
pleted, reinstalling the gas controls assembly for proper op-
eration. Also, the flue collector box cover must be replaced
correctly so that a proper seal is maintained. Contact your
dealer t\_r the required periodic maintenance.
Fans and Fan Motor -- Periodically check the con-
dition of tan wheels and housings and fan-motor shaft
bearings. No lubrication of condenser- or evaporator-fan
bearings or motors is required or recommended.
Evaporator and Condenser Coils -- Cleaning of
the coils should only be done by qualified sel_ice per-
sonnel. Contact your dealer for the required annual
maintenance.
Condensate Drain -- The drain pan and condensate
drain line should be checked and cleaned at the same time
the cooling coils are checked by your dealer.
Compressor-- All compressors are tZactory-shippedwith
a normal charge of the correct type refrigeration grade oil in
them and should rarely require additional oil. The service
person must be certain the proper oil level is maintained in
the compressor when it is installed and running.
