crease their service knowledge so that they can
provide prompt, efficient service. This Service

associated with the heaters. However, as with

have not been covered. If such problems arise,
please call the Technical Service Departmentʼs

SERVICE PREPARATION
A clean work area at the start of each job is essen-
tial for efficient service work. Heaters which are
extremely dirty should be cleaned prior to service.
Cleaning will occasionally uncover the problem
area. Tools needed for the job should be obtained
before work is started. Delays resulting from locat-
ing tools result in lost time and wages.
Use caution and common sense when working on
a heater. Always remember that electrical parts can
result in potential shock. Heater parts are hot dur-
ing operation, which could result in burns.
TOOLS REQUIRED
In addition to common hand tools, the service
shop should have the following tools and instru-
ments for proper repairing of the heaters. These
instruments will be referred to throughout this
manual.
