Replacement Procedures
Service Manual
To replace the fan motor (with correct SKOPE spare part only)
Compressor
The compressor is located at the front of the refrigeration unit, beside the
condenser. If the compressor is causing excessive noise, check the
mountings to ensure there is no damage to the rubber or the washers, nuts
and screws.
Before replacing the compressor, check all plug connections and ensure the
compressor electrics are operating correctly (see “Compressor Electrics” on
page 47). The compressor must be supplied with consistent voltage over
220 volts, ensure the voltage does not drop at start-up. If the voltage does
drop, ensure the unit has a direct power supply (not from a multi-box or
extension cord). Generally a faulty compressor may have a distinct hissing
sound and run with a very hot body temperature.
Compressor
Electrics
The compressor electrics are located on the front of the compressor.
To access the compressor electrics, remove the refrigeration unit (see
page 41) and unit cover (see page 44). The capacitor unclips from the relay
cover, and the relay cover unclips from the compressor.
1. Follow the above steps to access the evaporator fan assembly and remove
the fan blade.
2. Free the fan flexible cord by cutting the cable ties, trace the cable back to
the connector (near the compressor electrics) and unplug.
3. Detach the fan motor from the fan mounting brackets by removing the four
screws from the mounting bracket.
4. Attach to the replacement motor. Ensure that the flexible cord points
towards the bottom of the evaporator tub once reinstalled. Take care to re-
cable tie the fan and temperature probe flexible cords back onto the
mounting bracket (to prevent high frequency vibration).
5. Fit fan blade, ensuring it is centred within the evaporator shroud. Tighten the
blade to 1.5Nm.
6. Reassemble unit and test for correct operation.
IMPORTANT
To eliminate possible vibration noise, ensure no pipes touch the
plastic base and condenser assembly.
