Limited Warranty
This warranty is extended to the original purchaser of an evaporative cooler installed and used under normal conditions. It does not cover
damages incurred through accident, neglect, or abuse by the owner. We do not authorize any person or representative to assume for us any
other or different liability in connection with this product.
Terms And Conditions Of Warranty
From the date of purchase, if any original component part provided by Champion Cooler fails due to defect in material or factory
workmanship only, we will provide the replacement part as follows:
Eight Years on the original base assembly if water leakage should occur due to rust out.
Two years on the rigid evaporative media (RLD2 models only).
One Year on all other original component parts.
Exclusions From The Warranty
We are not responsible for replacement of cooler pads on RLD units. These are disposable components and should be replaced periodically.
We are not responsible for any incidental or consequential damage resulting from any malfunction.
We are not responsible for any damage received from the use of water softeners, chemicals, descale material, plastic wrap, or if a motor of
a higher horsepower than what is shown on the serial plate is used in the unit.
We are not responsible for the cost of service calls to diagnose cause of trouble, or labor charge to repair and/or replace parts.

This limited warranty applies to original purchaser only.
•
Replace Aspen Pads (RLD Models).
The aspen pads should be
replaced once or twice a season, depending upon the length of the
season. A new clean pad is more absorbent and efficient and will
deliver substantially cooler air.
•
Clean/Replace Filters (RLD2 Models).
The RLD2 models have
an efficient rigid media which lasts 3-5 times longer than aspen.
Annually or more frequently depending on water conditions, these
filters will need to be cleaned. The use of a bleed off will help
decrease the buildup of deposits on the pads. To clean, remove the
filters and use a scrub brush to loosen heavy deposits. Loose dirt
and debris can be removed by shaking the dried pad. Rinse out the
bottom of the cooler and the pads and put them back into the cooler.
We recommend replacing these pads every 3 years depending on
the quality of your water. Remember, a clean pad is more absorbent
and efficient and will deliver cooler air.
Note: Do Not use harsh
chemical cleaners - this will void your pad warranty.
•
Check bleed-off valve to be sure
it is not clogged.
•
Check belt tension.
A 3 lb. force
should deflect the belt 3/4 inches (see
Fig. 10). Readjust belt if needed.
•
Clean pump.
Cleaning the pump is necessary once a year at start-
up. For your safety, turn unit off and unplug motor and pump.
Remove the pump from the mount slot. Remove the base of the
pump as shown in Fig. 11. Clean the pump and turn the impeller to
ensure free operation. Remove the pump spout and check for any
blockage. After cleaning, rein-
stall the base onto the pump.
Reattach the pump to the mount
in the cooler using the plastic re-
tainer to ensure that the pump
will not overturn. Do not forget
to replace the spout and water
delivery tube onto the pump
outlet. The pump has an auto-
matic reset thermal protection.
Winter Shut Down
•
Drain water.
Always drain all of the water out of the cooler and
water supply line when not in use for prolonged periods, and par-
ticularly at the end of the season. Keep the water line disconnected
from both the unit and water supply so that it does not freeze.
•
Unplug motor and pump.
When cooler is not used for extended
periods, unplug the motor and pump from inside cooler.
•
Cover unit.
To protect the life of the finish, a cover for the unit is
suggested in extended periods of non use.
By following the operating, installation, and maintenance suggestions
as outlined, you can get many years of efficient and satisfactory
service from your cooler. In the event additional information is de-
sired, your dealer will be more than glad to assist you in every possible
way.
