lubricating the motor. Under normal use, these motors require oiling
about every 12 months of operation.
Do Not Over-Oil.
Blower Shaft Bearings
Blower shaft bearings need periodic lubrication. The oil cups on the
bearings should be filled with SAE 30W non-detergent oil when
necessary. Under normal use, oiling is required every three months
of operation.
Do Not Over-Oil.
Pump Bearings
The pump motor bearings are permanently lubricated
Changing Cooler Pads
Scale may build up on outside of the Rigid Pad, which will restrict the
airflow. The Rigid Pad should be removed and replaced if scale
cannot be removed using the methods described below. Failure to
do so may result in premature failure of components.
Replace pads as follows:
1. Remove pad assembly from cabinet.
2. Remove pad retainers from frame. Carefully remove all rigid
media from the louver panel, paying attention to the bottom of the
medial as there is a cut made at the bottom. Remove and discard old
pads.
3. If passages are clogged or pad is dirty, hose off the inlet face of
the pad. Light, gentle brushing of the inlet edges of the pad with a
stiff bristle brush (don’t use a wire brush) will not harm the pad and
will remove stubborn scaling.
4. If necessary, replace with new rigid media pads. Aspen,
expanded paper or other types of evap cooling pads will not work
and will void your warranty.
5. Lay new rigid media pads into the louver panel assy., paying
attention to how the slit at the bottom of the pad is oriented.
6. Return the rigid media retainer so that it fits on top of the rigid
media pads and holds them securely against the louver panel.
7. Pre-soak pads and check for air gaps along edges, reinstall pad
frames into unit.
8. Start pump and allow troughs to fill… check water level in troughs
by slightly tilting each pad frame out.
