Removing Condenser Fan Motor Assembly

1. Remove the top panel.
2. Unplug the two fan motor wire leads from the
fan motors.
3. Remove two hex head bolts from top end of fan
motor assembly, (see the illustration).
4. Lift up, and pull out the fan motor assembly.
5. Repair as needed.
6. To reassemble: Place the fan motor assembly
lower flange holes over the two allen head cap
screws in the base, and reinstall the hex head
bolts at the top of the assembly. Plug the fan
motors back in, and replace the top panel.
