•Clean pump. Cleaning the pump is necessary once a year at start- up. For your safety, turn unit off and unplug from power receptacle. Remove the pump from the mount slot. Remove the base of the pump as shown in Fig. 8. Clean the pump and turn the impeller to ensure free operation. Remove the pump spout and check for
any blockage. After cleaning, reinstall the base onto the pump.
Connecting Water
•Install overflow assembly. Remove nut and place nipple through the hole in the pan, with the rubber washer between the pan and the head of the drain nipple (Fig. 4). Screw on nut and draw up tight against bottom of pan. Insert overflow pipe in nipple to retain water. Overflow pipe may be removed to drain pan when necessary. A garden hose may be screwed on the drain nipple to drain water away from your unit.
•Connect water supply line. In- stall a sillcock and water valve on faucet as shown by figure 5. Place the nut and ferrule on the tubing and tighten the nut until water tight.

Press firmly to make sure it is secure. Reattach the pump to the mount in the cooler using the plastic retainer to ensure that
the pump will not overturn. DoImpeller not forget to replace the spout
and water delivery tube onto the pump outlet.
•Replace Pads. Aspen pads should be replaced once or twice a season, depending upon the length of the season. At the beginning and at mid season a clean pad is more absorbent and efficient and will deliver substantially more cool air.
Winter Shut Down
•Drain water. Always drain all of the water out of the cooler and water supply line when not in use for prolonged periods, and par- ticularly at the end of the season. Keep the water line disconnected from both the unit and water supply so that it does not freeze.
•Cover unit. To protect the life of the finish, a cover for the unit is suggested in extended periods of non use.
