the pump from the mount slot. Remove the base of the pump (Fig.
5). Clean the pump and turn the impeller to ensure free operation.
Remove the pump spout and check for any blockage. After clean-
ing, reinstall the base onto the
pump. Press fi rmly to make sure
it is secure. Reattach the pump
to the mount in the cooler using
the plastic retainer to ensure that
the pump will not overturn. Do
not forget to replace the spout
and water delivery tube onto the
pump outlet.
Routine Maintenance
•
Drain water.
It is recommended to drain the water from the
cooler at least once a week. Keeping fresh water in the pan will
help prevent scale and mineral deposits accumulation on the pads.
Always drain all of the water out of the cooler when not in use for
prolonged periods, and particularly at the end of the season.
• Unplug unit from power supply during extended periods of
non-use.
• Cover unit or store inside when not in use.
By following the operating, installation, and maintenance suggestions
as outlined, you can get many years of effi cient and satisfactory
service from your cooler. In the event additional information is
desired, your dealer will be more than glad to assist you in every
possible way.
Maintenance
WARNING:
Before doing any maintenance be sure power is
off and unit is unplugged. This is for your safety.
Annual Maintenance
•
Oil bearings.
The blower bearings (MMBT14 only) and cooler
motor in this unit should be oiled with a few drops of non-detergent
20/30 weight oil once each year. The motor does not need oil if it
has no oil lines for oiling. Motors that have no oil lines are lifetime
oiled at the factory and require no further oiling for the life of the
unit.
CAUTION:
Do not over oil.
Over oiling can cause motor burn
out, due to excessive oil getting into motor winding.
•
Change Pads.
Pads should be replaced once or twice a season,
depending upon the length of the season. At the beginning and at
mid season a clean pad is more absorbent and effi cient and will
deliver substantially more cool air.
•
Check belt and belt tension.
This applies only to model MMBT14
which is belt driven. Model
MMBT12 has a direct drive motor.
Check the belt for any cracks or wear
and replace if necessary. Check the
tension on the belt. A 3 lb. force
should defl ect the belt 3/4 inches (see
Fig. 4). Readjust belt if needed.
•
Clean pump.
Cleaning the pump is necessary once a year at start-
up. For your safety, turn unit off and unplug unit and pump. Remove
