Wiring
The appliance, when installed, must be electrically grounded in
accordance with local codes or, in the absence of local codes, with the
National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70, if an external electrical source
is utilized. This appliance is equipped with a three-prong [grounding]
plug for your protection against shock hazard and should be plugged
directly into a properly grounded three-prong receptacle. Do not cut
or remove the grounding prong from this plug. For an ungrounded
receptacle, an adapter, which has two prongs and a wire for grounding,
can be purchased, plugged into the ungrounded receptacle and its wire
connected to the receptacle mounting screw. With this wire completing
the ground, the appliance cord plug can be plugged into the adapter and
be electrically grounded.
CAUTION: Label all wires prior to disconnection when servicing
controls. Wiring errors can cause improper and dangerous operation.
Verify proper operation after servicing.
Blower Motor
The blower motor does not have oiling holes. Do not attempt to oil the
blower motor.
Blower Wheels
The blower wheels will collect lint and could require periodic cleaning.
If the air output decreases or the noise level increases, it indicates a dirty
blower wheel. Remove fan and clean blower wheels.
