CARE AND MAINTENANCE OF YOUR
RG3000-E
A filter must always be used and should be replaced frequently. Failure to use a filter
will invalidate your warranty. The use of a filter will greatly reduce the risk of damage to
your RG3000-E by preventing foreign material from entering the unit.
Special consideration for filtration must be given when you know the machine you are
servicing has "burned out". We recommend the use of two size 162 filter driers, in line,
to be used for that job and that job only. We also recommend that a clean filter be used
for every service job. Each filter should be labeled and used exclusively for one type of
refrigerant only.
Do not use this unit in the vicinity of spilled or open containers of gasoline or other
combustible liquids
Avoid the use of extension cords. If you must use an extension cord it should be a
minimum of 12 AWG and not longer than 5m. Not using an extension cord will greatly
reduce the risk of fire.
Always purge the unit of any refrigerant left after completing a service job. Refrigerant
left in the machine can expand and may cause damage to components.
If the unit is to be stored or not used for any length of time, we recommend that it be
completely evacuated of any residual refrigerant and purged with dry nitrogen.
Whenever you perform any type of maintenance work on your RG3000-E, ensure that it
is disconnected from the power supply before you begin.
