Essick Air N30W - Manual (Page 4)

NOTE: Depending on the mineral content of the water or the amount of air borne dust in your are, you may need
to replace fi lter pads during the season.
It is best to replace fi lter pads again at the end of the season. Old fi lter pads soak up lime and salts, which can rust
the louvers and the cabinet during the winter months.
MAINTENANCE
1. Once a month during cooling season, inspect your cooler for leaks, blocked water lines and excessive residue build-up on
the pads.
2. At the end of the season, drain the reservoir. Remove the drainpipe and let water and dirt pass through the drain fi tting.
3. Lime build-up can occur in the water reservoir and on louvers. Clean this off at least once per season. If any rust or bare
metal spots occur on the cabinet or louver, the metal should be sanded, primed and painted with a good quality paint.
4. If freezing weather occurs in your area, it is best to shut off the water supply at the source and drain the supply line to the
cooler.
5. A cooler cover is recommended to prevent rain and weather from damaging your cooler.
6. To prevent the Shaft from rusting, coat with a wax based lubricant. Allow lubricant to dry completely and all fumes to dis-
perse before turning on the cooler.
DO NOT GET WATER ON MOTOR OR PUMP MOTOR
TO REPLACE PADS
1. Remove louver (U) from cooler.
2. Unhook pad holders (V) at the sides of the louver and above and below side
pads inside cooler.
3. Remove old pads (W) and discard.
4. Tuck in rear pad to make sure hot air can not by-pass fi lter.
5. Place pad holders over new pad and hook into place.
6. For the side pads, center pad over louver openings in cabinet, hook pad
holder below pad, tilt into place and hook at top.
