units represent a prudent investment offering trouble-
free operation and long service with proper installation,
operation, and regular maintenance. Your equipment is
initially protected under the manufacturer’s standard
warranty; however, this warranty is provided under
the condition that the steps outlined in this manual for
initial inspection, proper installation, regular periodic
maintenance, and everyday operation of the equipment
be followed in detail. This manual should be fully reviewed
in advance before initial installation, start-up, and any
maintenance. Should any questions arise, please contact
your local Sales Representative or the factory BEFORE
