4. Damper actuator manual override
IMPORTANT! Never manually override the damper position if the
outdoor unit could switch to heating mode during the override
period. Heating mode requires the damper to be fully open for
full capacity.
It may be desirable to manually override the damper position and lock
it into position until repairs can be completed. If so, select an average
temperature, typical for the outside environment during the override
period, and then use that average temperature to find the desired
damper angle in the chart below.

Follow the instructions below for manually positioning and locking the
damper in place.
IMPORTANT! Disconnect power to the damper motor before
locking in place.
The damper actuator comes with a crank handle attached, to manually
move the damper position. The crank handle is removable and if it’s
missing, a 3/16” allen wrench will work just as well.
Use the following diagrams and instructions for this procedure.
