USE OF RAPID COUPLINGS
In addition to the methods described above, the
sheathing that joins the external to the internal
unit may also be drawn through a hole (about 6
cm. in diameter) drilled in a wall linked to the out-
side.
In this case, the hook-ups with the external unit
must be disconnected as follows:
1) Remove the plug from the electric outlet;
2) Remove the handle by loosening the two
screws and then slipping off the facing.
3) Remove the U bolt by loosening the two
screws.
4) Remove the sheath stop by loosening the two
screws.
5) Using a 24-version wrench, unscrew the union
on the coupling. At the same time, hold the
end of the flexible tube tight by using a 21-ver-
sion wrench. Repeat this operation for the sec-
ond union using a 24- and a 19-version
wrench.
6) Disconnect the condensation tube from the
rubber holder.
7) Loosen the shield’s two self-threading screws
and disconnect the electric hook-up unit.
The path of the connecting sheath should be as
straight as possible, without sharp curves or
kinks.
To re-connect the detached ends of the sheath to
the internal unit, you must repeat operations 1
through 7 in reverse order, being careful to
observe the following precautions:
•
Before drawing the sheath through the hole in
the wall, you should wrap the threaded ends of
the speedy couplings with duck tape or the like
as a protective measure.
•
Fit the upper two cooling junctures into the two
lower ones and hand-screw them several
turns while checking to be certain they are
well-fitted, and then tighten them with the
wrenches used earlier.
•
After having hooked up the two cooling junc-
tures, tighten the U bolts.
•
Check the grip on the cooling junctures by
wetting the joints with a little soapy water.
No bubbles should appear.
Caution:
We recommend that the disconnecting and
connecting of the rapid couplings be carried
out only by qualified technicians.
