stages come on. In addition, indicating lights on
cover of aecessory timer eontrol panel should
light.

^ NOTE: Depending on job eonditions and dif­

ferential between setpoint and discharge tem­

peratures, minimum time for all stages to eome
on is 22 minutes.

SERVICE

WARNING; Lock open and tag unit disconnect
before servicing equipment.

CAUTION: Before serv'icing fan compartment.

L Sharp edge.s of evaporator coil fms are ex­

posed. To prevent arm inj ury., cover top edge
of evaporator with strip of cardboard or a

few layers of heavy tape.

2. To avoid coil damage, cover coil face with a

piece of plywood or other suitable rigid sheet

material. If any coil fms are mashed or bent,

straighten with a coil fin comb. Check for
refrigerant leaks.

Fan Rotation — Correct fan rotation in respect to

fan outlet is shown in Fig. 22. To check for proper
fan rotation, remove service access panels and jog
fan motor switch. If fan rotation is incorrect, it must
be reversed.

Fig. 22 — Fan Rotation

To reverse the direction of rotation of a 3-phase

fan motor reverse any 2 of the power leads. Refer to
the connection diagram on the inside of motor
terminal box cover for proper reversing procedure

of single-phase motor.

1.

Pulleys and fan belts should be aligned and

adjusted as shown in Fig. 23-25.

2. Tighten motor holddown bolts.

3. Replace service access panels.

Indoor-Air Fan Adjustment — Fan motor pulley

is factory set for speed shown in Table 1. Unit sizes

028-064 have fixed pulleys. A second pulley is

shipped with drive package.

Increasing fan speed increases load on motor;
Do not exceed maximtim allowable fan speed

(Table I) or motor fuB load amps shown on
motor nameplate and in Table 7.

TO CHANGE FAN SPEED

1. Shut off power supply.

2.

Loosen fan belt by loosening fan motor on

mounting

bracket.

Do

not

loosen

mounting

bracket from unit.

3.

Loosen movable pulley flange setscrew (016,024).

See Fig. 25.

4. Select motor pulley diameter. See Table 1.

5.

To increase fan speed, screw movable flange

towards fixed flange; to decrease speed, screw
movable flange away from fixed flange. Use
values shown in Table 1 (016,024).

6.

Set movable flange setscrew at nearest pulley

hub flat and tighten (016,024).

7.

Check pulley alignment and adjust belt tension

as described below.

8.

Check fan operation. Repeat above procedure

as required.

Step 1 — Sheave Conditions — Check condition of
all new and old sheaves. Sheave must have smooth
finish and no sharp edges or burrs. Check for groove
uniformity.

Excessively worn sheaves or improperly

machined grooves can lead to early belt failure.

Non-uniformity of grooves will create an unequal
load distribution in matched set of belts.

Step 2 — Mounting Sheaves — Mount sheaves as
close to bearing as possible.

Excessive overlap may

cause bearing failure.
