FAN MOTOR REMOVAL AND INSTALLATION
In the event of motor failure, remove
the motor as described, and take it

authorized service station is the only
place that can provide possible mo-
tor warranty. Motor service and re-
pair at other places will be at own-
ers expense.
If the service station determines
motor failure is caused by faulty ma-
terial or workmanship within the
warranty period, repair will be cov-
ered under the warranty. Motor fail-
ure caused by external sources will
result in a charge to the owner for
repair.
