CHANGING THE OPERATING
THERMOSTAT
On the A426112 (SM-1501) and the A426110
(SM-1502) the temperature is varied by turning the
thermostat knob clockwise for an increase in
temperature and counterclockwise for a decrease in
temperature. The temperature on low setting should
approximate 140ºF and on high setting 190ºF.
Turn the splint pan off via the controls on the front
panel and then unplug the unit. Allow the unit and the
water to cool before draining the water from unit.
Both models have an operating thermostat, which
allows for temperature modulation and an overheating
sensor that prevents the pan from heating over 200ºF.
To replace the operating thermostat on the A426112
and A426110, pull the knob off the thermostat dail on
the front of the unit and remove locking nut. Remove
the four screws holding the front switch plate. Move
this front switch plate to the side, allowing it to be
supported by the wiring harness.
Follow the curled wire to the capillary tube and loosen
the nut that clamps the capillary tube to the tank.
Remove the capillary tube. Pull the wires off the
thermostat and remove. To replace, put the wires onto
the new thermostat and clamp the capillary tube to the
tank. Screw the switch plate back onto the unit and put
the locking nut and thermostat knob back in position. If
there are any problems at all, please contact
Sammons Preston.
REPAIR OF UNIT
Turn the splint pan off via the controls on the front panel
and then unplug the unit. Allow the unit and the water to
cool before draining the water from the unit.
Next, position the unit to allow access to the rear of the
unit. Locate the fuse holders at rear of the unit near
cord. Depress the fuse holder caps with the use of a
“common” blade or fingers and rotate counterclockwise
approximately 90º or until cap becomes loose. Remove
the fuse holder cap, exposing the glass fuse. Remove
the blown fuse.
Once the old fuse has been removed, replace it with a
new fuse of the same kind and amperage. Re-install the
fuse holder cap by depressing and rotating clockwise
approximately 90º and ensure that the fuse holder caps
are secured. Refill the splint pan with at least 3 inches of
water and then plug the unit back into a power outlet.
Turn the unit on via front control panel. Allow the water
to warm up to the operating temperature and use as
required.
In addition to the thermostat, which can be replaced on
site, it may be necessary or you may desire to return the
Sammons Preston Splint Pan for service to Sammons
Preston. Please call this number and we will be glad to
