4. Using a steam cleaning machine, clean the leaving

airside of the coil first (going downward) then clean the

entering airside. Use a block-off to prevent the steam

from penetrating a dry section of the unit.

5. Allow the unit to dry thoroughly before restoring power.

6. Damaged coil fins (excluding brazed aluminum)

should be straightened by using a fin comb.

7. Close all panels and doors once the coil is dry.

8. Restore electrical power to the unit.

WARNING

Disconnect the main power switch to the unit before per-

forming service and maintenance procedures.

!

Disconnect the four-wire service connector from the

motor (#1, Figure 5). Loosen the four bolts (#2, Figure

5) and all screws that fasten the blower to the flex collar.

Slide the fan assembly out of the unit. The fan assembly

may have to be lifted over the fan assembly plate bolts

(#3, Figure 5).

The belt tension is adjusted by the positioning of the ro-

tating motor base plate. Loosen the two adjustment bolts

(#4, Figure 5) on the base plate. Rotate the motor and

base plate to achieve the maximum belt deflection as

described under belt tension adjustment below. Tighten

the adjustment bolts (#4, Figure 5). Verify that the

sheave and pulley faces are still parallel. The fan rpm

can be adjusted to achieve the design airflow by setting

the adjustable sheave on the motor shaft. The pulley set

screw torque setting is 110 in.-lbs to 130 in.-lbs.

After disconnecting the power from the unit, determine

if the actuator is defective. Disconnect the 24 volt power

source. Connect the actuator directly to a 24 volt power

source with an appropriate cable. If the damper operates

correctly, the problem is either in the wiring connections

or main circuit board.

If the actuator does not work, it must be replaced. Loosen

the nuts on the jack shaft clamp and remove the actua-

tor. Tighten the clamp on the damper jack shaft. Test for

proper operation.
