Periodically clean air intake.  The interval in between cleanings will vary

the intake must be free from obstructions to ensure that the blowers can 

get enough air to function properly.  

*Before any internal maintenance is performed be sure all power to unit is discon-

nected and locked out.

                                        MAINTENANCE

Periodically do a visual inspection on the unit to ensure that the unit is not 

damaged and is operating properly with the motor spinning.

n

*Note that the air curtain blowers are direct drive so there are no belts to 

maintain, and that motor is permanently lubricated so there are no fittings 

that need greased.
