MAINTENANCE
NOTE: The fan motor is thermally protected with an automatic reset and will
automatically stop if overloaded. After the motor cools, it will restart automatically.
If this occurs, check into the problem before permanent damage occurs.
Once a month during cooling season, inspect your cooler for leaks, proper belt
tension and alignment, blocked water lines and excessive residue build-up on the
pads.
• To adjust belt tension, loosen the 4 Adjustment Bolts (2 each side) on the Motor
Mount. Adjust belt tension so that 3 pounds of pressure (lightly push with one
finger) will cause the belt to deflect ¾", as shown. Retighten the Adjustment
Bolts.
• Use SAE 20W or SAE 30W non-detergent oil to lube the bearings. Place 2 to 3
drops in the bearing oil cups at the beginning of the season and no more than once a
season during cooling season. If the motor has oil holes (usually plugged with yellow
caps that read "OIL" at either end of the motor) oil the motor also, following the same
procedure as for bearings.
NOTE: Excessive oil in the bearings may leak out and be drawn into the air stream.
Excessive oil in the motor may leak onto the motor windings and damage the motor.
Do NOT oil bearings prior to initial start-up.
• To replace pads
1. Remove louver from cooler.
2. Unhook pad holders and remove.
3. Remove and discard old pad.
4. Clean water deposits from the louver. If the paint is chipped or rust spots occur, sand
the spots and paint louver with a rust resistant exterior paint.
5. Place new filter in louver and tuck in to prevent hot air from bypassing.
6. Replace pad holders and hook into place.
7. Replace louver in cooler.
NOTE: It is best to replace filter pads
soak up lime and salts that can rust louvers and the cabinet during the wet,
rainy winter months.
• At the end of the season
1. Remove the Overflow Tube and let the water drain from the reservoir.
(The bushing is threaded to accept a standard garden hose. If desired, a
garden hose may be used to route water away from your house.)
2. Rinse dirt and debris from the pan and clean any water deposits that may
have collected in the reservoir or on any interior surface of the cooler.
3. If the paint is chipped or rust spots occur sand the spots and paint with a
rust resistant exterior paint.
4. Replace the Overflow Tube when you start the cooler for the next season.
NOTE: Do not get water on the Fan Motor or Pump Motor. This will cause damage.
• 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.
• A canvas cooler cover is recommended to prevent rain and weather from damaging your cooler.
• To prevent the Shaft from rusting, coat with a wax based lubricant. Allow Lubricant to dry completely and all fumes to
disperse before turning on the cooler.
