UNPACKING AND INITIAL SETUP 
 

The WayCool

®

 WC-1HP-DHL Evaporative Cooler is shipped upright in a corrugated container. The 

WayCool

®

 WC-1HP-DHL is fully assembled and ready for service except for thoroughly cleaning 

manufacturing dust from the cooling pads before running it for the first time. 
 

CAUTION: Be careful when you move the unit while it is in the shipping container and when moving 
it around with the container removed. Avoid jarring or dropping the unit to prevent damage to the 
bottom. 
 

1.  With the unit in the upright position as marked on the container, use a sharp knife or scissors to cut 

the straps that wrap the shipping container. 

 

Note: Do not discard the container until you have thoroughly inspected the unit. 
 

2.  Remove the shipping container. 

 

3.  Ensure the switch is OFF and the unit is unplugged. 

 

4.  Remove the grate bracket and the plastic retaining grates from all four sides of the unit. Use your 

fingers to lift each upward, then outward from the bottom. 

 
 
 

5.  Remove the cooling pads from all four sides of the unit. 

Place a putty knife or large, flat-bladed screwdriver 
under the pad to lift it up, then outward. With one pad 
out, the rest can be easily removed by placing one hand 
on the pad's inside, your other hand on the outside and 
lifting the pad up and out from the bottom (see figure 
WC-1HP-DHL.10).  

 
 
 
 
 
 
                

Figure WC-1HP-DHL.10  

 
 

6.  Inspect the entire unit for shipping damage. 

 

7. 

Ensure the fan belt is attached to the motor and blower pulleys and that the belt tension is correct.  
To ensure it is correct, press your finger on the belt about halfway between each pulley.  It should 
have about a half inch of play.  Too loose and the v-belt will slap around while running.  Too tight will 
cause the pulley bearings to wear and fail prematurely.

 

 

8.  Look for cracks in the bottom near the frame legs.  This is also an indication of rough handling.
