Spares & repairs
Before attempting to carry out any work on our units, all accompanying documentation
including warning labels on the unit must be referenced.
Should it be necessary to remove any component ensure that these are secured into
position once reinstalled. It is critical that after any maintenance work has been conducted
that all components removed/replaced be refitted correctly by a competent engineer.
Important
Before attempting to carry out any maintenance work, investigative or repair work on our
units, the unit MUST BE COMPLETELY ISOLATED
from its electrical supply. Ensure a minimum
of two minutes after electrical disconnection before removing access panels.

Care should be taken whilst cleaning the unit in the event that air movement should cause
the fan to freewheel.
Caution
Check inside the unit for an accumulation of dust, grease etc. If the fan impellor is heavily
soiled, clean out carefully, ensuring the unit is properly isolated. Failure to do this
periodically could lead to aloss of performance or the fan to become out of balance,
leading to bearing/fan failure.
Annual Checks
At the end of their useful life the packaging and product should be disposed of via a
suitable recycling centre. Do not dispose of with normal household waste. Do not burn.

before start up.
