SERVICE

Service Access —

All unit components can be reached

through clearly labelled hinged access doors. These doors are

not equipped with tiebacks, so if heavy duty servicing is need-

ed, either remove them or prop them open to prevent accidental

closure.

Each door is held closed with 3 latches. The latches are se-

cured to the unit with a single

-in. - 20 x

1

/

2

-in. long bolt. See

Fig. 36.

To open, loosen the latch bolt using a

7

/

-in. wrench. Pivot

the latch so it is not in contact with the door. Open the door. To

shut, reverse the above procedure.
NOTE: Disassembly of the top cover may be required under

special service circumstances. It is very important that the ori-

entation and position of the top cover be marked on the unit

prior to disassembly. This will allow proper replacement of the

top cover onto the unit and prevent rainwater from leaking into

the unit.

Cleaning —

Inspect unit interior at beginning of each heat-

ing and cooling season and as operating conditions require.

Remove unit side panels and/or open doors for access to unit

interior.
MAIN BURNERS — At the beginning of each heating sea-

son, inspect for deterioration or blockage due to corrosion or

other causes. Observe the main burner flames and adjust if nec-

essary. Check spark gap. See Fig. 37. Refer to Main Burners

section on page 139.

FLUE GAS PASSAGEWAYS — The flue collector box and

heat exchanger cells may be inspected by removing gas section

access panel, flue box cover, collector box, and main burner as-

sembly (Fig. 38 and 39). Refer to Main Burners section on

page 139 for burner removal sequence. If cleaning is required,

clean all parts with a wire brush. Reassemble using new high-

temperature insulation for sealing.

WARNING

Before performing service or maintenance operations on

unit, turn off main power switch to unit. Electrical shock

could cause personal injury.

IMPORTANT: After servicing is completed, make sure

door is closed and relatched properly, and that the latches

are tight. Failure to do so can result in water leakage into

the evaporator section of the unit.
