START-UP

Before starting unit, check the following and correct as necessary:

·Is unit solidly supported?

·Is fan adjusted for speed and pulley alignment?

·Are pulleys, motor, and bearings securely mounted?

·Are there any loose parts that will rattle or vibrate?

·Is condensate drain pan pitched for correct drainage?

·Are coil baffle plates tight against coil to prevent air bypass?

·Are all panels securely fastened?

·Are all electrical connections correct and tight?

Also refer to condensing unit instructions before starting a split system. A split system start-up checklist is provided in the back of these instructions.

SERVICE

Inspection and maintenance should be performed at regular intervals and should include the following:

·Complete cleaning of cabinet, fan wheel, cooling coil, con- densate pan and drain, heating coils, and return-air grille (if present).

·Inspection of panels and sealing of unit against air leakage.

·Adjustment of fan motor, belt, bearings, and wheels.

·Cleaning or replacement of ®lters.

·Testing for cooling/heating system leaks.

·Checking of all electrical connections.

Most unit service can be performed by removing one or both of the unit's side panels. Coil cleaning or removal or insulation cleaning may require removal of a rear, top, or bottom panel, depending on the unit's orientation. When serv- ice is completed, replace unit panels.

Panels Ð Panels are fastened to unit frame with sheet metal screws. Fan and coil compartment must be sealed tightly after service to prevent air from bypassing the cooling coil.

Fan Motor Lubrication Ð Fan motor supplied with unit is permanently lubricated and requires no further lubrication.

Fan Shaft Bearings Ð Bearings on 007-012 size units are sealed, permanently lubricated bearings that require no further lubrication. Size 014-034 units have pillow-block bear- ings (Fig. 17) that must be lubricated with suitable bearing grease approximately every 3 months. See Table 7 for suit- able lubricants.
