Heat Anticipator Setting (Electro--Mechanical

Thermostats only)

The room thermostat heat anticipator must be properly adjusted to
ensure proper heating performance. Set the heat anticipator, using

an ammeter between the W and R terminals to determine the exact
required setting.
NOTE: For thermostat selection purposes, use 0.18 amp for the
approximate required setting. Failure to make a proper heat
anticipator adjustment will result in improper operation, discomfort
to the occupants of the conditioned space, and inefficient energy
utilization; however, the required setting may be changed slightly
to provide a greater degree of comfort for a particular installation.

Transformer Protection

The transformer is of the energy--limiting type, however a direct

short will likely blow a secondary fuse. If an overload or short is
present, correct overload condition and check for blown fuse on

Indoor Fan board or Integrated Gas Controller. Replace fuse as

required with correct size and rating.

PRE--START--UP

ENVIRONMENTAL,

FIRE,

EXPLOSION,

ELECTRICAL SHOCK HAZARD
Failure to follow this warning could result in personal

injury or death.

1. Follow recognized safety practices and wear protective

goggles when checking or servicing refrigerant system.

2. Do not operate compressor or provide any electric power

to unit unless compressor plug is in place and secured.

3. Do not remove ccompressor plug until all electrical

sources are disconnected and tagged.

4. Relieve and recover all refrigerant from system before

touching or disturbing compressor plug if refrigerant
leak is suspected around compressor terminals.

5. Never attempt to repair soldered connection while

refrigerant system is under pressure.

6. Do not use torch to remove any component. System

contains oil and refrigerant under pressure.
To remove a component, wear protective goggles and

proceed as follows:

a. Shut off electrical power to unit and install

lockout tag.

b. Relieve and reclaim all refrigerant from system

using both high-- and low--pressure ports.

c. Cut component connecting tubing with tubing

cutter and remove component from unit.

d. Carefully unsweat remaining tubing stubs when

necessary. Oil can ignite when exposed to torch
flame.

!

WARNING

Use the Start--Up Checklist supplied at the end of this book and

proceed as follows to inspect and prepare the unit for initial
start--up:

1. Remove access panels (see Fig. 20).
2. Read and follow instructions on all DANGER, WARNING,

CAUTION, and INFORMATION labels attached to, or
shipped with unit.

3. Make the following inspections:

a. Inspect for shipping and handling damage, such as

broken lines, loose parts, disconnected wires, etc.

b. Inspect for oil at all refrigerant tubing connections and

on unit base. Detecting oil generally indicates a

refrigerant leak.

c. Leak--test all refrigerant tubing connections using

electronic leak detector, or liquid--soap solution. If a
refrigerant leak is detected, see following Check for
Refrigerant Leaks section.

d. Inspect all field-- and factory--wiring connections. Be

sure that connections are completed and tight.

e. Ensure wires do not touch refrigerant tubing or sharp

sheet metal edges.

f. Inspect coil fins. If damaged during shipping and

handling, carefully straighten fins with a fin comb.
